SINGAPORE'S Pacific International Lines (PIL) and CCS Wuhan Rules and Research Institute have inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to further decarbonization.

The two parties will explore the use of alternative fuels, onboard carbon capture and storage systems to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from vessels.

The collaboration will focus on exploration of alternative fuels and implementation of onboard carbon capture and storage systems; establishing green marine fuel supply chains; ensuring compliance with sustainability regulations; sharing knowledge on marine green fuel bunkering and upgrading personnel skills on new technologies and best practices.

PIL earlier signed MoUs with PSA Singapore to jointly develop sustainable solutions to cut carbon emissions and optimize maritime efficiency, and with DP World to jointly develop green solutions for the decarbonization of global supply chains, respectively, reports UK's Seatrade Maritime News.
