As an industry leader within our field, we have a unique responsibility and opportunity to change status quo. A great component of our success within the marine industry is our constant drive for innovation. We strive to make a difference in the industry every day to make our businesses more efficient, as well as our impact on the environment less.

Our organization is tailored for innovation. For example, we have a dedicated Business Development Department focused on innovation projects and an in-house Business Applications Department specializing in tailor-made applications. Moreover, we have developed a culture where standards are challenged and limits are pushed.

Below are a few examples of our achievements:

• We have developed an onboard blending system that manages to reuse a large share of the lubricant oil on board ships. This has cut our consumption of lubricant oil considerably. Good for the bottom-line, good for the environment
• Our award-winning flowmeter system – developed in collaboration with internal and external partners – has ensured that we now receive exactly the amount of fuel oil that we pay for
• In select ports we have set up our own fuel supply chain including storage, blending and distribution. This enables us to blend and deliver custom-made fuel types that outperform the market standard on important parameters.
• Please refer to the online case stories for more details on these projects.
