Carbon measuring system from SEA

A new Carbon Exposure solution that enables users to effectively measure and integrate their carbon exposure calculation with emissions targets has been launched.

The producer of the product is Sea, which is a technology spin-off from the Clarksons group, although it operates fully independently. The key functionalities of the Carbon Exposure solution include:

  • Voyage carbon planning: Voyages can be planned based on variables such as cargo type, cargo volume, laycan, load & discharge port, ballast & laden speed, and vessel name or IMO numbers.
  • Carbon exposure intelligence: A comprehensive vessel comparison table is provided, including CII and EEOI ratings plus ballast, laden, and total CO2 emissions. Transparency in conjunction with EU ETS cost estimates is also available, alongside the Voyage EEOI, which gives the user a holistic view of the environmental impact of their voyage decisions. Finally, the user will then be recommended the most environmentally friendly vessel from the comparison, in terms of CO2 emissions.
  • Carbon target tracking: The industry-first Carbon Tracker Dashboard helps users assess their expected and actual environmental performance against the company’s set targets. Intelligence and visualisation of how specific voyages contribute to emissions enables users to identify areas of improvement and optimise their vessel selections and voyages to meet the targets.

Sea claims to deliver reliable, data-driven solutions that power better decisions to enable sustainable shipping across the entire vessel chartering workflow, from pre-fixture to at-fixture. This new product is in addition to the company’s all-in-one platform for pre-fixture workflows that enables charterers, brokers, owners, and operators to adapt to the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS), now extended to cover shipping, placing a cost on CO2 emissions for vessels over 5000 tonnes.
