New Clean Shipping Index verification service

24/06/2010

‘Clean Shipping Index’ verification service offered by Lloyd’s Register

New service developed to help operators demonstrate enhanced environmental performance to cargo owners and other stakeholders

We are now offering a verification service to shipowners and operators wishing to demonstrate their success in reducing the environmental impact of their activities beyond the requirements of classification or statutory rules and regulations. The service is cost effective and can be delivered with minimal interruption to ship operations.

The verification service is approved by the Clean Shipping Project, the organisation that developed the Clean Shipping Index. More than 1,000 ships have been entered into their Clean Shipping Index database. Verification is the logical next step to provide assurance to all involved: ship operators with confidence that the Clean Shipping Index provides a level playing field; and cargo owners and shippers with confidence that the values can be used when purchasing shipping.
