HONG KONG's Orient Overseas Container Line (OOCL) is to use dual environmental reporting through the use of both Clean Cargo Working Group (CCWG) and ISO 14064-1 verifications to certify transparency, accuracy, completeness, consistency and relevance of its data disclosure on vessel emissions in 2013.
OOCL was accredited by UK Lloyd's Register Quality Assurance (LRQA), an independent business assurance service provider, after checking the carbon dioxide, sulphur oxides and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) (Scope 1) emission levels of OOCL vessels.
LRQA verified that OOCL prepared all the proper documentation and records showing the effective management over data integrity and that not a single discrepancy, misstatement and nonconformity was identified between the emission data collected in the samples from the randomly selected vessels by LRQA and the data submitted by OOCL for the year 2013.
Lloyd's Register Asia Pacific president John Rowley said such a scheme recognises the safety, commercial and environmental performance of shipping for many years.
"OOCL's achievement is a testament to their environmental commitment, through publicly demonstrating that the environmental performance data of their fleet is prepared with high accuracy, completeness and transparency," he said.
Additionally, OOCL has completed the verification of GHG reporting against ISO 14064-1, which specifies principles and requirements at the organisation level for quantification and reporting of GHG emissions and removals.
It includes requirements for the design, development, management, reporting and verification of an organisation's GHG inventory.
