Environmental
Working on initiatives, big and small, to reduce climate impact from operations.
Reducing climate impact from operations
We reduce greenhouse emissions from our operations directly and indirectly, and advance the cleaner-energy transition in the industry. We reduce emissions from operations by ensuring voyage optimisation and weather routing. We limit harmful gas and water emissions, and minimise waste generation.
To ensure efficient energy management, our approach includes multiple onboard-energy monitoring systems, physical enhancements to the vessels, and continuous training and awareness for our onshore staff and crew. We also track and forecast vessel emissions intensities through data triangulation and address detected deviations.
