It's worth recalling that the world merchant fleet is made up of different types of vessels, which can be grouped into the following categories: general cargo ships, container ships, barge carriers, bulk carriers, oil tankers and chemical tankers.

Today, sea freight is the main means of transporting raw materials (oil, coal, grain, etc.) over very long distances.

Today, sea freight accounts for 90% of international merchandise trade. At the end of March 2022, more than 57 000 merchant ships had been sailing around the world, over 50% of them carrying oil and related products.

Climate Week NYC is in full force, so let's explore one of the hardest-to-abate areas of our economy — maritime shipping.

DNV recently released its annual Maritime Forecast to 2050 report, looking at the shipping market’s decarbonization journey in 2023. I dove into this 74-page report and identified four key findings.
