The goal is clear: shipping aims to become climate-neutral by 2050. An ambitious endeavour, considering that we are talking about an estimated 60,000 ships worldwide. The use of alternative fuels and new propulsion concepts will be of major importance. Ian Beveridge, CEO of the Schulte Group, takes a look at the multi-fuel future.

The decarbonisation of shipping entails a lot of technological and economic challenges. The question of safety in the operation of the new climate-friendly technology solutions is rarely discussed in this context but must not be neglected under any circumstances. An opinion piece by David Furnival, BSM Chairman and experienced maritime safety expert.

How to achieve the big “0” in decarbonising shipping is currently the main focus topic. Unfortunately, the small solutions are sometimes lost from focus. But they are often quite simple to implement and can quickly lead to a positive impact. The IMPA SAVE Pledge is one such initiative that aims to reduce and, if possible, stop the supply of plastic bottled water to our ships, and for which BSM wants to attract more owners as supporters.

We are thrilled to announce the successful opening of the BSM Pocket Park, a vibrant community space.

The new IMO and EU emissions requirements will be the headline regulatory issues for 2023. Ian Beveridge, CEO of the Schulte Group, addresses the challenges and measures that lie ahead for shipping.

BSM teamed up with clean-tech company Signol to study for the first time how individual behavioural change can lead to a reduction in ships’ energy demand and carbon emissions.
