MITSUI O.S.K. Lines and MSC have joined coalitions aiming to decarbonise the shipping industry. MOL has signed a five-year impact partnership agreement with the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation, and MSC has become a member of the SEA-LNG Coalition.
As a GCMD impact partner, MOL intends to provide access to vessels as part of coalition projects and operate data and evaluation reports to publicly share internal learnings.
MSC plans to work alongside SEA-LNG to demonstrate the benefits of the LNG pathway to decarbonisation.
MSC noted it has invested in LNG-fuelled vessels in recent years, and in 2022 saw its first five dual-fuel LNG-capable containerships in operation.
The company said it plans to replace conventional fuel vessels with dual-fuel capable vessels in the short term.
