What our clients say
-
“They performed an exploratory study on rules and regulations for several of our focus regions and a selection of our vessels and technologies. This gives us great insights on what is important for our customers. We now understand better what the impact of EU ETS will be for our clients, and which actions we should take in order to be prepared for the future.”
Matthijs Richelle - Service Development Manager

“Vincent has helped us understanding the challenges, considerations and cost impacts of getting an existing vessel ready for receiving shore power. The Sustainable Ships tools and report provide insight and work intuitively. We believe ship owners could definitely use the expertise that Sustainable Ships has to offer.”
Ryan Cornelisse - Business Manager Shore Power
-
“Sustainable Ships is a great initiative; everyone is fully dedicated to help the maritime sector decarbonize! The overall approach helps a larger company as Van Oord to differentiate in depth on the decarbonisation options provided in the overview. The background knowledge at Van Oord, on its turn, helps Sustainable Ships to further professionalize with respect to qualitative answering. It was really nice to cooperate with the Sustainable Ships’ team.”

Yes we do!
These projects require a great deal of expectation management however. We therefore require time to prepare and understand your scope, as well as making a clear milestone planning for payments and the work itself. Contact us to discuss terms.
-
Not per se.
We have standardized consultancy agreements that are used for expectation management, which include the scope, guidelines, planning, budget, responsibilities etc. This document can be signed upon request but this is not required from our side. We do ask for 50% payment upfront when the assignment is agreed upon.
-
Upon agreement, we require 50% payment upfront and 50% at project finish. We will start the activities once the upfront payment is received. The project finish date is typically set at a fixed date as to not exceed planning and lower risk for both parties.
-
We provide verification services through our preferred partner Normec Verifavia.
Their Shipping Emissions & Performance Business Unit delivers essential independent verification services for maritime regulations, including EU MRV, UK MRV, IMO DCS, CII, CSI, EU ETS, and Fuel EU Maritime.
