| Project Detail |
The project involves the retrofitting of sulphur oxide (SOx) exhaust gas cleaning systems (scrubbers) to 10 passenger/vehicle (RoPax) ferries, 17 container/vehicle (ConRo) vessels, 11 roll on roll off cargo (RoRo Cargo) vessels and 6 vehicle carriers (total 44 vessels) of the Promoters fleet.
Objectives
The aim is to ensure that the promoters vessels comply with International Maritime Organisation (IMO), International Labour Organisation (ILO) and EU regulations governing the cleaning of exhaust gas emissions. The vessels concerned by this project will be outfitted with wet exhaust gas cleaning systems designed to remove harmful sulphur and exhaust particulates from the vessels engine emissions. The resulting emissions will meet future more stringent international regulations and as such the project will contribute to a significant improvement of the environmental performance of the fleet.
