Why not bunker with an alternative fuel?

Heerema has already invested in cleaner fuels to power its vessels, exemplified by the use of LNG for the Sleipnir. In addition to this major step forward, we are looking into the use of several alternative fuels such as bio-fuels and E-fuels.

Recently answered questions

What are your near-term and long-term targets on emission reduction?

Our near-term target is to reduce 35% by 2030, our long-term target is a Net-Zero Heerema by 2050. You can read all about our targets and reduction plans in our Climate Plan.

How does Heerema define Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions?

In line with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, Heerema reports emissions on Scope 1 and Scope 2. Scope 3 emissions reporting is under development. Ultimately the entire footprint of Heerema, including relevant scope 3 emissions, will need to be reduced to Net-Zero.
