RESPONSIBILITY

Measurable action

Introduction

At Uni-Tankers, responsibility isn’t just a principle – it’s the compass guiding everything we do. We recognize that as a global leader in chemical and oil shipping, our operations touch countless lives and ecosystems worldwide. This awareness fuels our commitment to driving progress on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) fronts, ensuring that every decision contributes to a more sustainable future.

From reducing carbon emissions and advancing decarbonization technologies to fostering a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion, we aim to set benchmarks in responsible business practices. Our people – both onshore and offshore – embody this ethos, leading initiatives that prioritize safety, innovation, and trust.

This section highlights our dedication to:

  • Environmental Stewardship: Achieving ambitious decarbonization goals through efficient fleet upgrades, innovative fuel trials, and compliance with global standards like IMO and EU directives
  • Social Responsibility: Ensuring employee well-being, advancing gender equity, and nurturing talent through mentorship and continuous training programs
  • Ethical Governance: Upholding transparency, strengthening cybersecurity, and leading anti-corruption efforts

PEO2PLE & WORKPLACE

FOOTPRI2NT

FOOTPRINT

Since 2014, we have worked diligently on reducing our overall footprint. A total of 109 projects have been evaluated to support carbon reduction, reduce footprint etc., and 85 specific projects have been selected and initiated.

We have installed Frugal fuel saving systems on 11 out of 16 owned vessels since June 2020 providing a documented fuel saving of 10% to 12%.

Together with KPI OceanConnect we successfully trialed a B30 biofuel blend on the M/T Alsia Swan, a 5,700 DWT chemical tanker in Amsterdam. The bespoke biofuel, comprising 30% FAME, demonstrated a 42% reduction in particulate matter emissions and an 18% reduction in carbon monoxide emissions compared to LSMGO. This supports compliance with emission regulations and aligns with industry efforts for decarbonization.

The installation of ECO-Pac systems onboard have reduced CO2 emissions from pumps and ventilation by 50%.

PEOPLE & WORKPLACE

Our employees are our strongest asset, and we continuously work to strengthen our working environment.

We are in the process of revising the company Safety Management System (SMS) in cooperation with external consultants.

So far, we have identified +50 industry guidelines from the OCIMF, Intertanko and ICS, which will be reviewed and integrated with the SMS.

Furthermore, we have created a new management manual structure for easy and intuitive navigation as well as significantly reduced the number of procedures.

FACTS & FIGURES

A total of 34 projects initiated since 2014

Carbon footprint reduced by 15.4% since 2018
