Boston Consulting Group (BCG), and ABS have signed a memorandum of understanding to help operators in shipping through their decarbonization journeys.
The new joint proposition aims to help operators achieve their net-zero goals, supporting asset owners in their efforts to explore feasible options for operational and technical improvement, advise on carbon capture technologies, and the uptake of alternative and low-carbon fuels, among other consultative services that support carbon reduction strategies.
The BCG/ABS offer is also aimed at those looking to tap into the opportunities afforded by the transition to net zero. This would include all businesses that feed into the low-carbon value chain for offshore industries, including renewable energy producers, low-carbon fleet development, and subsea storage, among others.
High uncertainty around regulation, technology and new markets requires every player across the maritime value chain to work together
Peter Jameson, Partner and Global Lead for Climate and Sustainability in BCG’s Infrastructure, Transport and Cities practice, said.
For his part, Christopher J. Wiernicki, ABS Chairman, President and CEO, added that the collaboration between the two partners “will provide a unique offering to help the industry safely unlock value, manage risks and take advantage of opportunities over the life cycle of the clean energy transition in a changing world.”
