GCMD is doing great work to help the industry to decarbonise. This important global objective requires hard work to find evidence-based solutions and to pull together stakeholders for implementation. GCMD focuses on practical steps to make transition possible, and BW Group is pleased to be supporting the centre’s work.

As a founding partner of GCMD, we are committed to a shared vision of supporting the industry to decarbonise and deliver on IMO’s emission targets. Through active collaboration with GCMD and decades of experience within the maritime and energy sectors, we want to help speed up the transition to a more sustainable future for the maritime sector.

Our partnership with GCMD is one of the key industry initiatives towards climate-neutral shipping. As an industry, we need to pull in the same direction to make the energy transition a reality. The work of GCMD and its goals are in line with our ambitions and support our goal of net-zero fleet operations by 2045. Only together we can accelerate the decarbonisation of maritime shipping.

At Seatrium, we are more than just a founding partner of GCMD. Our engineering expertise and innovation have allowed us to take a leading role in advocating for a low/ zero-emission offshore and marine industry, and we are proud to be at the forefront of the global energy transition. As a responsible corporate citizen, we recognise our duty and opportunity to contribute and value-add to maritime decarbonisation for a more sustainable world. Through our ongoing partnerships with GCMD, we are committed to working with like-minded organisations to drive change towards a cleaner energy future.

As momentum builds in the maritime sector’s shift towards cleaner energy, the urgency to decarbonise and adopt low- or zero-carbon fuels and technologies has intensified. PSA, as a leading global port operator and trusted partner to cargo stakeholders, is well positioned to leverage its global network of strategic nodes and energy hubs to catalyse the sustainability transformation across the port and supply chain ecosystem. Our partnership with GCMD positions us at the forefront of the evolving energy landscape, enabling the adoption of future fuels while upholding the highest standards of operational excellence, in alignment with our Node-to-Network strategy.

Since its establishment, GCMD has been providing significant value towards the realisation of maritime decarbonisation through diverse studies and pilot projects related to ammonia, biofuel, and CO₂ capturing & offloading. Still, many uncertainties and challenges remain to be overcome from technical, operational, economic, and regulatory viewpoints, and cross-industry collaboration and cooperation are paramount.  

In this context, GCMD provides another strategic role as a facilitator, influencer, and connector of global industry experts to jointly create new value and solutions. As a strategic partner of GCMD, we are committed to further encouraging these initiatives.

GCMD has certainly laid a strong foundation in initiating the maritime industry’s decarbonisation efforts since its inception. EPS and GCMD share the same drive and commitment towards decarbonsation, therefore our valuable partnership will help close technical and operational gaps, and establish fundamental changes that will help accelerate the industry’s adoption of alternative fuels for a greener tomorrow.

BHP is proud to be a founding member of the Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonisation in Singapore, a key maritime hub of the world. The Centre continues to enable great work that drives decarbonisation in this hard-to-abate sector through innovative projects by fostering co-creation across the maritime industry.

Decarbonising the shipping industry is a challenge that’s as complex as any problem can be. This means our solutions need to be rooted in actionable insights and synergistic collaboration. We believe GCMD is the optimal platform to connect industry-wide efforts and realise viable solutions. 

As a Strategic partner of GCMD, Hanwha is dedicated to employing the Group’s integrated portfolio, which encompasses not only the production, storage, and transportation of energy but also the development of next-generation green ship solutions, to help advance progress in decarbonisation. With GCMD and its partners, we are committed to reshaping the industry and accelerating a net-zero future. 

ONE actively supports our continued partnership with GCMD. As a founding partner, we have made steady progress in the past years toward our shared goal of decarbonisation in the maritime industry. Looking forward to the future, we remain convinced that active participation and close collaboration is the only path to success, especially as the shipping industry faces unprecedented challenges on every front. Transformation begins with action.
