Lomar Shipping Partners With Startup on Atmospheric Methane Removal
Lomartech and Blue Dot Change are collaborating on a nature-based catalyst to break down methane, a potent greenhouse gas. They aim to release an iron chloride compound into the air using ships' stacks to accelerate methane degradation in sea air.
Sustainability and ROI Come Together With Forward Looking Navigation Sonar
According to Seabed 2030 and the GEBCO world map, less than 25% of the seafloor has been mapped. Additionally, in many places, the seafloor can change dramatically over time due to seasonal and storm related conditions. The charts mariners rely on are often not comprehensive or accurate enough to be relied on when making navigation decisions. Ancillary technologies play an important role in helping to provide better situational awareness. One company that is focusing on filling in the gaps of this lack of information is FarSounder
The zero emission LNG carrier
In a growing trend of try to ensure zero carbon shipping of fossil fuels classification society ABS has granted Approval in Principle (AiP) for an ammonia fueled LNG carrier.

Corvus Tapped to Supply Worlds Largest Electric Ship Battery
Corvus Energy has been selected to supply the battery systems for the world’s largest 100% electric Ro-Pax ferry. With over 40 MWh of energy storage, the battery system will be four times larger than the current largest installation in all of maritime.
Largest Suction Sails Installed on Dutch Short-Sea Cargo Ship
Bound4blue, a Spanish company that is developing automated wind-assisted propulsion systems, reports it has completed the installation of the largest fixed suction sails ever built and placed on a commercial ship. It is an evolution of the company’s technology that was first installed in December 2021 and will be used to undertake a 12-month test to validate the benefits of the rigid sail.
ABS Issues World’s First Main Engine Control System ABS Cyber Safety® Equipment Certification to Nabtesco
After prototype testing in January 2023, ABS has issued the world's first ABS Cyber Safety Product Design Assessment (PDA) certification for the main engine and main propulsion remote control systems (M-800 series) from Nabtesco Corporation.
Propulsion Decisions or Smoke on The Water?
why not continue chipping away at emissions sustainability within the same process to ensure commercial sustainability: smart regulations building on our current reporting requirements and standards?
