Aude Leblanc, Technology Leader – Sustainable Shipping at Bureau Veritas Marine & Offshore (BV), delves into the dynamic landscape of wind propulsion for shipping and the intricate considerations surrounding its integration into vessel designs.
A report by Lloyd’s Register has highlighted the need for an industry-wide understanding of the operational and safety challenges surrounding the use of ammonia as a marine fuel.
Sustainable shipping fuels could reach cost parity with fossil fuels as early as 2035 with the help of decisive emissions policy such as carbon taxes and emissions limits, according to a new report launched by Finnish technology group Wärtsilä.
So far, maritime decarbonization has been focused almost solely on the Global North rather than the Global South. In order to enable a just and equitable energy transition, policy makers and other maritime stakeholders would need to ensure that countries in the Global South are not omitted. This cou
The president of ExxonMobil’s European arm is adamant that Europe needs industry to deliver the right set of climate tools and solutions.
Shipping disruptions through the Red Sea are pushing the amount of oil in transit to record levels, according to the latest International Energy Agency (IEA) Oil Market Report (OMR).
Norwegian shipbuilder and ship designer Ulstein has developed a new subsea vessel for floating and fixed installations in the offshore wind market, as well as for offshore oil & gas. Ulstein said that the SX232 is based on three core principles, including an optimized hull design based on the Ulstei
BP, Equinor and TotalEnergies have selected nine contractors for engineering, procurement, and construction contracts, with a combined value of around £4 billion, for two projects being developed in Teesside that are said to be vital for the UK’s decarbonization journey.

Ahead of the key global event that will decide the pace of shipping’s decarbonization, Vincent Clerc, CEO of Danish shipping and logistics giant A.P. Moller – Maersk, has highlighted three imperatives that will be crucial if the maritime industry wants to meet ambitious emission reduction targets.
The Red Sea shipping crisis could result in nearly tripled costs for shipping companies in 2024 due to significantly higher exposure to the EU Emission Trading System (EU ETS).
A new report by the Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult has identified ten technology innovations, subsea hubs among others, that could result in an 80% cost reduction in tidal stream energy, making it lower than current nuclear energy prices if successfully commercialized. The ten technology i
A full methanol retrofit for passenger ships is a less commercially attractive prospect than the use of blended fuels (Blend B30), heavy fuel oil (HFO), and heavy fuel oil equipped with onboard carbon capture and storage technology (oCCS), a new report from classification society Lloyd’s Register ha
Industrial gas supplier Air Liquide and infrastructure provider Vopak have joined forces to look into the development and operation of infrastructure for ammonia import, cracking, and hydrogen distribution in Singapore. The companies have formalized their intention through a memorandum of understand
Classification society Bureau Veritas (BV) has unveiled the results of new modeling research which confirmed the potential hefty cumulative impact of operational and technical efficiency measures in keeping shipping within its “carbon budget” to 2050.
