当全球最大造船国遇上全球第一船级社:航运业绿色转型如何提速?
第一财经· 2025-08-21 03:48
Core Viewpoint - The global shipping industry is facing the strictest carbon emission regulations in history, with the revised Annex VI of the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) coming into effect on August 1, 2023, prompting the need for new practices and technologies to meet stringent emission reduction requirements [1][3]. Group 1: Regulatory Changes and Industry Response - The revised MARPOL Annex VI is a new and very strict regulation that requires shipping companies to adopt new practices and technologies to comply with emission reduction targets [3]. - The Norwegian classification society is assisting clients in developing compliance strategies and understanding new regulations, while also providing technical advice on alternative fuels and energy-saving devices [3]. - The introduction of carbon taxes is expected to drive shipowners to invest in new technologies and improve energy efficiency, with financial institutions increasingly favoring green projects [3]. Group 2: Market Dynamics and Bilateral Trade - China is Norway's largest trading partner in Asia, with bilateral trade expected to reach $10.18 billion in 2024, a year-on-year increase of 31.7% [4]. - The Norwegian classification society has seen rapid growth in China, with its market share in the region accounting for approximately 28% of its global business [4]. - China's shipbuilding industry remains the largest globally, with completion, new orders, and backlog accounting for 51.7%, 68.3%, and 64.9% of the global total, respectively, as of the first half of 2025 [4]. Group 3: Decarbonization Challenges - The transition to decarbonization in shipping is a gradual process, with approximately 92% of the current fleet still using traditional fuels [6]. - The speed of transition depends on various factors, including infrastructure for new fuels, production scale, and the high costs associated with these transitions [6]. - Operational optimization measures, such as speed reduction and route optimization, can be implemented even for existing fleets using traditional fuels [6]. Group 4: Digitalization and Innovation - The Norwegian classification society emphasizes the importance of energy-saving technologies in reducing shipping emissions and achieving international maritime organization goals [11]. - Digital technologies are being utilized to monitor vessel operational data, allowing shipowners to better understand fuel consumption and improve operational efficiency [11][12]. - Collaborative efforts between Norwegian and Chinese teams are focused on advancing digitalization and smart technologies in the shipping industry [12]. Group 5: Future of Fuel and Shipbuilding - The future of shipping fuel will not rely on a single solution, but rather a mix of fuels depending on various factors such as vessel type and trade area [15]. - Norway has issued over 20 Approval in Principle (AiP) certificates to Chinese shipyards for various green fuel adaptation solutions and technologies [15]. - China's shipbuilding industry has evolved into a leader in high-end shipbuilding, with significant advancements in LNG carrier construction and other specialized vessels [16].
