Deep sea shipping at the crossroads

After solving emissions of sulfur and nitrous oxides, shipping still needs to cut CO2 more than existing methods and fuels allow for. The time has arrived for a radical solution.

ESG Performance

To keep our commitment for continuous improvement, we constantly measure our performance. We have defined a set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) within different areas. By analysing these we are able to show our performance, document our improvement and identify areas where we need further improvement.

What have we achieved with continuous improvements?

Reduction of our environmental footprint is a continuous process, which requires reliable performance data from the vessels. Since 2008, Solvang has systematically recorded vessel performance data and used this for benchmarking sister vessels, develop best operational practice and feed this into the design of our newbuilt ECO LPG carriers (first delivered in 2013).

Innovation for the environment

Since 2010, Solvang has pursued an innovation path to bring heavy fuel oil (HFO) operation into compliance with the strictest NOx emission control. The climate gain is significant.
