Promoting Circular Economy

Our 4R Approach

We adopt the “4Rs”: Refuse, Reduce, Reuse and Recycle to manage waste generated by our operational activities in the most responsible and sustainable way possible. 

This approach guides our waste management practices, emphasising waste elimination and reduction, encouraging responsible recycling, and promoting the use of renewable resources.

Ship Recycling

Ship Recycling

We prioritise responsible ship recycling practices in line with The Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships 2009 (the Hong Kong Convention). 

In 2022, we launched the Ship Recycling Yard Assurance Programme to pre-approve and shortlist the preferred yards. In 2023, assessments were conducted on four ship recycling yards in Turkey.
