A New Era of Digital Bunker Management: Navigating the complex and regulatory environment in shipping

To achieve zero emissions in shipping by 2050, numerous decarbonization regulations have been implemented, including the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII), the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), Singapore’s eBDN initiatives, and the upcoming FuelEU. These regulations present significant challenges for shipping companies. Digitalization, however, offers the most efficient and cost-effective solution to address these challenges.

StormGeo has introduced a bunker management solution designed to assist shipping companies, particularly operators and bunker buyers, in navigating this complex regulatory environment by streamlining planning and procurement processes. Additionally, we have collaborated with an eBDN partner to facilitate the integration of eBDN data, thereby accelerating users’ digital transformation journeys.
