A new study from West Australia – East Asia Iron Ore Green Corridor Consortium finds that ships powered by clean ammonia could be deployed on the iron ore trade routes between West Australia and East Asia by 2028 and reach 5% adoption by 2030. Green corridors Green corridors, specific trade routes where zero-emission shipping solutions are demonstrated and supported, are one of the key levers to aid the shipping industry and governments in the decarbonisation of the maritime sector. The...
Gard is happy to announce that they have entered into partnerships with the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation (GCMD) in Singapore and Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping in Denmark. As decarbonisation transforms the maritime industries, ship owners will increasingly have to convert their operations to alternative fuels and low-carbon technologies, exposing them to new risks and operational challenges. As a leading marine insurer, Gard wants to support t...
As the maritime industry is undergoing major transformations driven by the twin ambitions of carbon emissions reduction and digitalisation, the MOU seeks to enable close cooperation between ship owner and charterer with the aim of achieving further energy efficiencies and GHG savings through improved voyage data collection, verification and sharing via DNV’s Veracity data platform in collaboration with the industry partners’ digital management systems. With tightening environmental...
Representatives from maritime and energy organisations convened in Sydney in October with the aim of accelerating the development of a green corridor for the transportation of iron ore between Australia and East Asia (the Australia-East Asia Iron Ore Green Corridor) and identifying key actions to fuel the clean shipping of iron ore by matching emerging clean ammonia supply with industry demand. Net-zero-emission shipping solutions In June 2022, 13 members of the Getting to Zero Coalition and A...
A consortium, led by the Global Maritime Forum. and consisting of BHP, Rio Tinto, Oldendorff Carriers, and Star Bulk Carriers Corp., have signed a letter of intent (LOI) to assess the development of an iron ore Green Corridor between Australia and East Asia. To mobilise demand for green shipping and to scale zero- or near-zero greenhouse gas emission shipping, governments and industry decision-makers are increasingly looking to enable and simplify the task of decarbonising the maritime sec...
