DNV and INTERTANKO Partner to Drive Decarbonization in the Tanker Sector

Veracity by DNV and INTERTANKO have joined forces in a partnership aimed at supporting the decarbonization efforts of the tanker sector. This collaboration allows DNV emissions verification customers to easily share their data with INTERTANKO, providing valuable support as ships trading in the European Union become subject to the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) in 2024. The verified emissions data will play a crucial role in commercial settlement within the EU ETS, as well as in the implementation of the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) and the enhancement of operational efficiency through real-time verification of emissions data.

The integration of DNV’s verification services with INTERTANKO’s benchmarking tool enables members who use DNV as their verifier to securely and automatically share their verified data. This streamlined process ensures that accurate emissions data can be efficiently utilized for various purposes, including compliance with regulatory requirements and the optimization of operational practices. By leveraging this partnership, stakeholders in the tanker sector can enhance their sustainability efforts and contribute to the overall reduction of greenhouse gas emissions within the industry.

The signing of the partnership between Veracity by DNV and INTERTANKO marks a significant step towards facilitating the transition towards a more sustainable shipping industry. As the importance of emissions verification continues to grow, this collaboration provides a valuable solution for stakeholders seeking to meet regulatory obligations and improve their environmental performance. By working together, DNV and INTERTANKO are supporting the sector’s efforts to reduce its carbon footprint and embrace cleaner and more efficient practices for the benefit of both the industry and the environment.
