COO STATEMENT
Welcome to our 2024 ESG Report.
Since our inception we have been committed to doing the right thing. Our strength has always come from our values — safety, trust, integrity, care — and from the people who live by them every day, both at sea and ashore.
This report reflects what we do, but most importantly how we do it — responsibly, and with a long-term view. It captures how safety is embedded in our culture, how our people remain our greatest asset and how we build relationships that last.
We have structured this report around three core pillars that shape our approach to responsibility and reflect who we are and how we operate: our people, our environment and our processes.
Our people are at the centre — from seafarers to office teams & external contractors — and everything we do is focused on keeping them safe, supported, looked after and empowered.
Our environment speaks to our continuous responsibility to reduce our environmental footprint and to operate with care for future generations, whether through compliance, performance improvements, or impactful changes.
Our processes represent the systems, ethics, and day-to-day practices that enable us to deliver safely and reliably — with a focus on effectiveness, efficiency, digital transformation, and cross-team collaboration.
These three pillars are combined in support of our wider mission: to be a trusted, peopleoriented maritime group, leading with safety, integrity, and excellence while evolving towards a sustainable future.
Evolution is key in achieving sustainability. We are growing, improving, welcoming new colleagues, strengthening bonds across teams, encouraging diversity and ensuring that our culture continues to guide us safely through
change. Each department, each team, each and every individual plays a role in keeping our seafarers safe and supported. Together we have built solid foundations on which we will continue developing our ESG strategy.
We thank everyone — at sea, in our offices, and in our wider network — who has contributed to this culture of care and responsibility over the years. We look forward to the road ahead, as we continue to grow with integrity and purpose.

Our environmental responsibilities are deeply woven into our day-to-day decisions and long-term planning. True to our values — Safety-Focused, Integrity-Driven, People-Centric, Trustworthy, and Family-Rooted — we are taking steady and practical steps to minimize our environmental impact while maintaining operational excellence. Yet, we believe in progress over perfection — investing in cleaner technologies, smarter voyage planning, and building a future-ready fleet.
1. CO₂ Reduction Performance: Over the past year, we have successfully reduced our average CO₂ emissions per vessel, across both tanker and bulk carrier fleets. This was made possible through operational efficiencies and technological improvements. Our goal is to achieve an additional 1% CO₂ reduction per vessel annually.
2. In 2024, we improved fleet-wide fuel and voyage efficiency, helping reduce emissions through smarter routing and optimization.
Miles Laden (time vessels carried cargo):
Days Laden (days spent on loaded voyages):
These figures reflect improved voyage planning, minimized idle time, and increased productivity — all directly contributing to our CO₂ reduction goals.
We are currently investing in a newer, more efficient fleet of tankers and bulk carriers. These modern vessels are not only built to comply with evolving environmental regulations but also to perform better across the board. They feature upgraded propulsion systems, enhanced fuel efficiency, and greater compatibility with emissions monitoring systems. This shift reflects our belief that safety and sustainability go hand in hand since a newer fleet is a safer one, and one that will allow us to operate with less environmental impact.
OUR MODERN FLEET: A PLATFORM FOR PROGRESS EMISSIONS & PERFORMANCE: DATA-LED IMPROVEMENTS
Environmental performance is not just monitored — it is actively managed. Our Environmental Management Team, which meets
quarterly, coordinates Company-wide efforts to improve both environmental and energy efficiency across vessel and shore operations. The team also evaluates emerging technologies and alternative fuel solutions, ensuring we stay ahead of regulatory and industry expectations. These efforts are underpinned by our integrated management system, which includes ISO 50001 (Energy Management) and ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) certifications. ISO 50001 provides a structured framework for monitoring energy performance and identifying efficiency opportunities, while ISO 14001 supports the systematic management of environmental responsibilities — from emissions control to waste reduction and regulatory compliance. Together, they ensure that energy and environmental performance are embedded into our daily operations and long-term strategy.
In practice, our environmental management approach includes a range of operational initiatives:
• Fleet-wide CO₂ emissions monitoring and reporting
• Ballast Water Management Systems to protect marine ecosystems
• Use of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions
• Voyage optimization, including weather routing and optimal arrival planning
• Continuous engine load control to improve efficiency
Through these tools and systems, we make data-driven decisions that reduce emissions, improve energy use, and support our long-term sustainability goals — without compromising safety or operational reliability.
OFFICE-BASED ENVIRONMENTAL CASE STUDY: ENERGY EFFICIENCY & RECYCLING
Our environmental commitment extends beyond our fleet and into the heart of our office operations. Since 2019, we have actively tracked and reported energy consumption at our Head Office as part of a broader sustainability roadmap. The insights gained through this process have led to a number of targeted efficiency upgrades. According to our 2019–2024 Energy Efficiency Report, we have implemented practical improvements including but not limited to LED lighting retrofits, air conditioning system optimizations, and greater reliance on digital workflows to reduce energy-intensive paper processes.
These efforts are guided by a structured Energy Management System aligned with ISO 50001, which supports continuous monitoring and identification of opportunities for reduction. Over time, we have successfully reduced both our energy use and operational footprint, setting a strong example of how everyday workplace practices can contribute to broader environmental goals.
Alongside energy efficiency, our recycling and waste reduction efforts have remained a consistent focus since 2004. What began with the safe disposal of electrical equipment has evolved into a Company-wide recycling programme embedded in daily office life. To date, we have responsibly recycled more than 55 tonnes of materials, including 30,930 kg of print paper, 24,162 kg of shredded paper, 626 kg of batteries, and 285 kg of lightbulbs.
This programme is supported by clear waste segregation guidelines, regular awareness initiatives, and internal monitoring to ensure participation across all departments. Staff are encouraged to actively contribute to these efforts, reinforcing a culture of responsibility and environmental stewardship within the workplace.
Together, our energy-saving practices and long-standing recycling commitment reflect a deep-rooted belief that meaningful environmental action begins with consistent, practical steps — and that change is most effective when shared by the entire organization.
DIGITAL SUSTAINABILITY & ICT
We believe that digitalization is a key enabler of sustainability — not only for reducing environmental impact but for improving agility and transparency across operations. Over the last decade, our ICT team has led a sustained transition toward a paperless office, supported by the digitization of forms, procedures, manuals, and approval workflows. Today, 50–60% of our operational documentation is digital, our goal is to reach 80% in the next two years.
Our internal “Paperless by Design” campaign, now in its tenth year, has helped shift everyday behaviours — from default digital filing to limited access printing — resulting in a significant reduction in paper use and waste. These savings are complemented by enhanced speed and accountability across teams, as digital
platforms improve version control, approvals, and audit readiness.
In parallel, we are investing in cloud computing infrastructure, which supports lower energy consumption, reduces hardware needs, and allows our systems to scale flexibly without additional server installation. This shift away from physical servers also reduces e-waste and frees up physical space in our offices, reinforcing our broader commitment to resource efficiency.
Together, these digital sustainability initiatives form a core part of our operational efficiency strategy. By simplifying processes and minimizing waste, we are creating a smarter, cleaner, and more future-ready organization — while embedding environmental thinking into the way we work every day.
Modern IT solutions and infrastructure ensuring resilience and seamless business continuity
Categorized all on board procedures by priority and function
All vessels and offices undergo scheduled regulatory inspections in compliance with international standards (e.g., ISM, ISO certifications).
Compliance is not just a responsibility for our Company— it is a standard we build upon.
