Sustainability reports showing actions that aim to change structures

Document	No.	Excerpt
Maersk Sustainability Report	1	“Maersk’s annual Strategic Customer Council (SCC) is a platform for collaborating with our customers’ executive leadership on the future of logistics, where we use the joint problem solving approach to enable scaling of decarbonised logistics solutions on Ocean and beyond.” p. 16
	2	“2023’s most notable milestone was the arrival of Laura Mærsk, the world’s first container vessel with a dual fuel engine that is capable of running on green methanol.” p. 18
	3	“Maersk’s position is that climate change needs to be tackled with a sense of urgency and action – we cannot wait until the market, regulatory and technical challenges are all resolved.” p. 18
	4	“Maersk’s decarbonisation commitment also applies to APM Terminals’ network of owned and operated terminals.” p. 24
	5	“Maersk, along with other members of the World Shipping Council, has put forward a proposal for a Green Balance Mechanism – essentially a subsidy-fee mechanism including an administrative and redistribution element on top, as well as a just and equitable transition element and R&D fee.” p. 25
	6	“Maersk believes that the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) marked a pivotal moment in global climate negotiations. This was the first time a COP agreement was reached that calls on all countries to move away from using fossil fuels. However, for Maersk, the final text of COP28 fell short in one key area. It lacked explicit language to ‘phase out’ or ‘phase down’ fossil fuels.” p. 25
Euronav Sustainability Report	7	“Our operations and chartering people are leading coalitions in the industry that focus on short-term actions aimed at significantly reduce the industry’s emissions. Our technical teams are joining forces with engine designers and manufacturers to ensure that the latest energy-saving technologies are part of our vessels.” p. 43
Euronav Sustainability Report	8	“At Euronav we are engaged with external partners and industry coalitions to deliver immediate impact on shipping decarbonization.” p. 48
NORDEN Annual Report	9	“As a globally operating company, we interact with numerous suppliers around the world, and it is a priority for NORDEN to ensure sustainable procurement in collaboration with our external stakeholders. NORDEN seeks to enable sustainable procurement by integrating ESG matters into our procurement processes and decisions.” p. 64
NORDEN Annual Report	10	“The investment in the biofuel producer MASH Makes is a strategic investment made with the rationale of engaging directly in the development and supply of alternative fuel sources, which will be an important pathway to further reduce our emissions in future and to offer direct decarbonised supply chain solutions to our customers.” p. 45
DFDS Annual Report	11	“…we have teamed up with Arla and Danish Crown in a new green corridor partnership to develop a climate-neutral transport corridor between Denmark and the UK.” p. 25
TORM Responsibility Report	12	“Again in 2023, TORM supported and engaged in the Mærsk McKinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon Shipping as a Mission Ambassador to research ways to grow in a more operationally, commercially, and sustainably viable way.” p. 11
TORM Responsibility Report	13	“TORM co-founded the Maritime Anti-Corruption Network (MACN), TORM has taken a joint stand with the industry against the requests for facilitation payments, which exist in many parts of the world where TORM conducts business. Best practice is shared between members of the network, and members align their approach to minimizing facilitation payments. MACN seeks support from government bodies and international organizations to eliminate the root causes of corruption.” p. 25
Viking Line Sustainability Report	14	“The solutions developed in the project will enable fully carbon-neutral freight and passenger travel between Turku and Stockholm, but the project will also be scalable for other routes. This is important since all EU countries, Finland included, have signed on to build green maritime transport corridors.” p. 19 (on project Decatrip)
