Wartsila's 2019 deliveries of scrubbers are now almost sold out, its marine solutions president Roger Holm has said.
He told TradeWinds there may still be some room for short-term deals next year, but added: "It is starting to get extremely urgent for owners wanting 2019 deliveries."
The company has seen orders for exhaust cleaners jump in recent months.
As a result, Holm said: "I'm sure we will see many players trying to enter the market."
