Within the global shipping there is an increased environmental focus. Over the past few years several new legislation has been released, both global via the IMO, and also from EU side. Think in this respect of the EU MRV, IMO DCS, but also the EU ETS and CII regulations, as well as the upcoming FUEL EU. All these new regulations relate to reduction in greenhouse gas emissions of vessels, and start with a proper, accurate and detailed reporting of fuel consumption, and insight in the actual operational ship performance.
