  • S6 Ep3: Risto-Juhani Kariranta, Chief Executive Officer, Ahti Pool
    Feb 4 2025
    Could compliance with FuelEU Maritime be as simple for shipowners as it is for consumers signing an electricity supply contract? This is what Risto-Juhani Kariranta, CEO of Ahti Pool, argues in this week’s episode.
    Finland-based Ahti Pool currently brings together about 250 vessels from a number of different companies. It enables owners of ‘under-compliant’ ships, or those that fall below the GHG intensity reduction targets set out by FuelEU Maritime, to tap into the ‘compliance surpluses’ of dual-fuel vessels in the pool, by compensating them for their use of green methanol or bio-LNG.
    The concept works, Risto says, because both parties are set to benefit financially.
    In this conversation, he discusses some of the practical challenges of compliance pooling, from constant monitoring to developing contractual arrangements, and explains why he believes it will genuinely help accelerate investment in renewable and low-carbon fuels.

  • S6 Ep2: Cameron Mitchell, Director, Isle of Man Ship Registry
    Jan 21 2025
    The ship.energy podcast gets into its stride in the New Year with a conversation between ship.energy’s Tom Barlow-Brown and Cameron Mitchell, Director of the Isle of Man Ship Registry (IoMSR).

    At the celebration of its 40th anniversary last September, the Registry emphasised its proactive stance on decarbonisation and crew welfare, and in this wide-ranging discussion Mitchell talks about the IoMSR’s consultancy work on decarbonisation, including a recent partnership with Berge Bulk. He also shares insights on how the Registry’s sustainability goals align with global and national energy and maritime strategies.

    Mitchell looks at all the energy options on the table – including nuclear down the line – and as technical innovation and digitalisation/AI initiatives gather pace, he emphasises that a strong regulatory framework is essential to underpin and facilitate the direction of travel in shipping’s energy transition. Implementing effective and comprehensive crew training on new marine fuels will also be critical in delivering shipping’s decarbonisation safely and competently.

    Mitchell takes a pragmatic approach to the industry’s decarbonisation – be focussed on ‘the art of the possible’ – but he also calls on industry and the regulators to keep the momentum going – it’s imperative to for all stakeholders to keep moving forward.

    Cameron Mitchell is a qualified Marine Engineer who has worked for Geest Line, Maersk and Farstad. He moved to the Isle of Man in 2001 and joined the Ship Registry in 2003, becoming Director in 2019.

    He has a Diploma in the surveying of ships and yachts and more recently he has completed the Isle of Man Government's Senior Leadership Development Programme.

  • S6 Ep1: Jordan Pechie, President, Seaspan Marine Transportation
    Jan 7 2025
    The First Movers series puts the spotlight on maritime companies that have been among the first to take the plunge on decarbonisation by trialling and adopting alternative fuels or green technologies.
    This series goes beyond the initial and optimistic big announcements and headlines and asks what happens in the months and years that follow. It aims to unpick the tangible results achieved and the practical challenges faced by these decarbonisation pioneers.
    In this third episode of First Movers, Ariane Morrissey caught up with Jordan Pechie, President at Seaspan Marine Transportation, about a year and a half after the company welcomed the first of three fully electric tugboats into its fleet, on Canada’s West Coast.
    In this conversation, Jordan gleefully recalls the surprise on the captain’s face as the tug pulled off the dock silently, and how day-to-day work was transformed as captains adapted to operating the vessels without the usual cues provided by the engines’ sound and vibration.
    As for many first movers, the project was ahead of both regulation and of any government financial support programme. This meant that Seaspan had to complete a lengthy series of HAZIP and HAZOP to secure approval for the battery-powered vessels, but also that it didn’t receive any government funding for the electric tugs.
    Despite this, Jordan explains that the project was successful because it made financial sense, with an 8 to 9 years payback period on OpEx through fuel savings. With several new fuel and technology options emerging, he insists on the importance for first movers to develop their green projects around their own operational needs and constraints, and to anchor their decisions in real world data. In Seaspan’s case, the company opted for batteries because British Columbia has abundant clean energy, and the technology was suited for tug operations that require high torque and high power for a short period of time.
    With more green projects in the works, Seaspan’s experience also underscores how collaboration was essential on several levels: from captains feeding into the vessel design from the outset, to the shared vision of the project partners and clients, which were committed to walking the walk on environment protection.
