Offshore Support Vessel (OSV) Decarbonisation Forum
What happened in 2024, so far:
-
Two project teams worked in Q1 and Q2 on two topics
-
The project team members where representative from OSV- owners, charterers stakeholders
-
The findings of the project teams were presented in two position papers
-
The position papers were discussed and reviewed at OSV Decarbonisation Forum in June 2024
-
The final version position papers are now available to all in the OSV sector
-
We encourage all in the OSV sector to make the papers part of OSV decarbonisation going forward
-
We look forward to continuing the OSV decarbonisation conversation and cooperation
Data & reporting standardisation
Data & reporting standardisation follow from Principle 10 of the OSV Decarbonisation Principles: “Performance data should be transparent and shared in a standardised format, ensuring credibility and ease of access’’.
Objective: develop an OSV sector Data- & Reporting Standard (Version 1.0), supported by charterers, owners and other stakeholders, by further shaping and developing existing OSV sector data- & reporting standards.
Behavioural based decarbonisation
Behavioural based decarbonisation is one of the key drivers to achieve the objectives as set by Principe 3 ‘’vessel shoreside management, sailing offices and crew should be trained regularly in operational emissions mitigation, so as to promote a culture of environmental accountability, since they are instrumental in ensuring energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions.’’ & Principle 4 ‘’There should be close collaboration between the vessel owner and the charterer to reduce ‘hurry up and wait’ logistics
Objective: develop OSV sector behavioural based decarbonisation guidelines to promote environmental accountability and enhance decarbonisation collaboration between people involved in offshore vessel operations.
