The seminar covered core topics shaping the future competitiveness of the Ro-Ro sector, including

  • the IMO Net-Zero Framework and global regulatory trends,
  • Scope 3 GHG emissions calculation using the GRC methodology,
  • application of the Book & Claim system, and
  • approaches to establishing green shipping corridors.
Participants emphasized the need for collective industry action in response to tightening international regulations, sharing practical and actionable collaboration measures for decarbonization. The networking dinner following the seminar further encouraged active exchanges among attendees, broadening the scope for cross-industry cooperation.

A representative from Wallenius Wilhelmsen commented, “We appreciate KR’s strong support in hosting and successfully organizing this meeting. The seminar reaffirmed the importance of collaboration in addressing the decarbonization challenges facing the Ro-Ro sector, and it served as a meaningful opportunity that offered practical learning for the wider industry.”

KR will continue to work closely with global partners to propose concrete and feasible technical and policy solutions and actively support the industry’s sustainable transition.”
