Emissions to the air Carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) are produced from the combustion of fossil fuels, such as bunkers.
Waste generated by ship operation and chemicals on board are characterised as other discharges.
Environmentally-adapted products Through the world’s largest maritime network, we can contribute to developing environmentally-adapted products for the whole shipping industry.
Shipping related discharges to water encompass such aspects as waste, discharges of bilge and ballast water, toxins from antifoulings and the risk of oil spills in the event of accidents or excess bunkering.
Ship's engines produce gases which are harmful to the marine environment. We aim to address several issues through Wilhelmsen Maritime Services.
We use quarterly measurements to check that our vessels are operated within environmental parameters.
