We have a long tradition for
contributing to the communities
in which we operate and are
committed to supporting causes
where we can leverage our
unique skills and assets as a
global shipping company to
make a real difference.
How do we accelerate the
positive impacts to generate

SUSTAINABILITY
DRIVER Transparency as a minimum requirement.
Benchmarking to identify good and bad performance.
11. LOW IMPACT SHIPPING
Container shipping is the most energy efficient means to move high volumes of goods across long
distances. However, in absolute terms, the impacts of the industry are significant
Maersk Liner Business impacts, 2014:
• CO2 emissions: 27.3 million tonnes
• SOx emissions: 466,000 tonnes
• NOx emissions: 771,000 tonnes
• Waste: 286,000 tonnes
12. WE FOCUS ON LEADING THE INDUSTRY IN
ENERGY EFFICIENCY – it makes great business
sense
• Our new vessels – such as Triple-E -
set new standards on energy
efficiency
• Our existing fleet is being retrofitted
with new technologies
• We optimise our network and vessels
operation
13. BIG DATA. BIG SAVINGS
We optimise our network and vessels operation (utilisation, speed, performance monitoring and KPI’s)
375+ installed mobile masts give Maersk Liner Business the ability to collect real time vessel performance
data
Our Global Voyage Center in Manila monitors fleet performance 24-7 enabling better fleet management,
delivery times, onboard issue resolution and energy efficiency
14. IMPLICATIONS OF LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
– MORE TO COME • From January 2015, we have
switched to 0.1% S Ox fuels
in Emission Control Areas
(ECAs) – currently scrubbers
and LNG are not feasible
solutions.
• SOx impact on health and
environment will be reduced
by 90%.
• Fuel costs will increase
approx. 200 Mio USD/year
for Maersk Line.
• We have to implement a
separate surcharge to cover
the cost of low-sulphur fuel.
• We support the regulation,
and call for rigid
enforcement, to ensure level
playing field
