Hi. Thank you for acknowledging my request. I'm currently doing research on the fuel consumption of fishing vessels with motorized vessels as target segment. The goal is to promote cleaner technologies and the use of greener fuel in the fishing industry. With that, I would like to know the % share and list of registered companies or operators that are utilizing these vessels as of 2022 (both for commercial and municipal categories as I understand they are classified by size and coastal restrictions) in order to quantify the analysis of my study. Hoping you can provide the data for this moving forward in my research. Thank you.
