FuelEU Maritime

Starting January 2025, ships over 5,000 GT must meet new GHG intensity requirements as part of the FuelEU Maritime regulation.

Navigating the FuelEU Maritime Regulation 

Stay ahead of the curve and ensure your fleet is compliant!

In light of the European Union’s latest legislative measures and the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) ambitious target to slash carbon intensity by 40% within the global shipping fleet by 2030, shipping companies are under mounting pressure to decrease their emissions.

 

The maritime sector is embarking on a transformative journey where compliance with the FuelEU Maritime (FEUM) regulations will be pivotal for their operation and compliance.

 

Key compliance mechanisms like banking, borrowing, and pooling provide flexibility, ensuring smoother transitions for the maritime industry. 

 

 

FuelEU Maritime Compliance Timeline

The FuelEU Maritime regulation is set to transform the shipping industry, adapt to new fuel standards, and aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. With key milestones and compliance requirements spanning from 2025 onwards, staying informed and prepared is crucial for maritime operators.

 

The below timeline provides a clear roadmap of the upcoming regulatory deadlines:

Optimising GHG Intensity: Streamlined Fuel Solutions for maritime compliance and cost savings

The GHG intensity calculation assesses the greenhouse gas emissions a vessel produces per unit of energy consumed, covering emissions from the entire fuel lifecycle - from production and transport to onboard combustion. This metric calculates emissions of CO₂, CH₄, and N₂O based on the vessel’s fuel type and mix, enabling shipping companies to comply with FuelEU Maritime standards and gauge their emissions impact.

 

By using the GHG intensity score, companies can monitor compliance with regulatory targets and evaluate the benefits of lower-carbon fuel options. Adjusting fuel types or incorporating low-carbon blends can reduce GHG intensity, helping to meet environmental goals, minimise penalties, and realise financial savings.

 

We streamline compliance by utilising your emissions data, preferred supply port, and fuel oil-to-gas oil ratio. Our tailored fuel mix solutions meet GHG intensity standards and clarify financial impacts, supporting effective compliance management and revealing cost-saving opportunities with optimal low-carbon fuel choices.
