Green Award Executive Director Jan Fransen and RightShip CEO Warwick Norman have signed an agreement to strengthen the recognition given to Green Award members in RightShip’s new online vetting platform, RightShip Qi.
A ship that has passed the rigorous Green Award certification process and obtained Green Award certificate will receive additional credit and a positive score adjustment in RightShip’s 5-star predictive Risk Rating. This rating, along with acknowledgement of Green Award membership, is prominently displayed in RightShip Qi’s new vessel dashboard, further improving the potential of Green Award vessels for preferential chartering selection.
“Green Award believes that ship owners and managers who go the extra mile to make their vessels safer and greener deserve to be recognized,” said Green Award Executive Director Mr. Fransen.
“By rewarding good owners and managers we make high quality shipping economically sound, and move towards eliminating substandard ships from the market. At Green Award we are happy to see that RightShip continues to recognize the high performance of Green Award ships and link them with charterers.”
“We have worked with Green Award for 13 years now and we are very pleased to strengthen our association even further” said RightShip CEO Warwick Norman.
“Our new vetting platform, RightShip Qi, provides greater visibility into vessel information by highlighting memberships such as Green Award, and providing positive ratings adjustments to the vessels of Green Award members. Our data, collated over many years, shows us that the more environmentally friendly vessels also tend to be the safer vessels. Sustainability pays dividends to many stakeholders in many ways.”
