Tropical cyclones disrupt China-South Pacific container services

Neptune Pacific has warned of continued disruptions to its Asia-Pacific services after a series of tropical cyclones affected ports and vessel schedules across China and wider Asia. The carrier said five tropical cyclones — Maysak, Bavi, Noul, Dolphin and Saudel — have affected China in recent months. The storms have contributed to periodic port closures and significant schedule delays. The disruption is now resulting in further port omissions on services connecting Asia with the South Pacific. Three vessels to omit Asian ports Neptune Pacific said its partner service carrier has confirmed several port omissions for September.

NORDEN delivers first maritime emissions reductions through RSB Book & Claim

NORDEN has delivered the first verified maritime emissions reductions through the RSB Book & Claim registry in a pilot with Microsoft and the Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB). According to NORDEN, the transaction marks the first time a maritime carrier has issued and delivered verified emissions reductions through the RSB registry. Microsoft has also become the first company to use Book & Claim for shipping emissions through the RSB registry. Book & Claim targets shipping emissions The Book & Claim model allows companies to purchase verified emissions reductions linked to sustainable fuels without requiring those fuels to be used on their specific voyages. This means companies can address emissions from maritime transportation even when sustainable fuels are not physically available on the ships carrying their cargo.
