Advancing Fleet Decarbonization
Asyad Shipping continues to align fleet investment decisions with its long- term decarbonization pathway. In 2025, total GHG emissions were reduced by 3% year-on- year, supported by targeted operational and technical efficiency measures. In addition to the Optisave VFD deployment on the MAX vessels (completed on Sohar Max and Liwa Max in January 2026), the Company progressed several engine efficiency upgrade programs scheduled for implementation in 2025. These include:
These technical enhancements are designed to improve fuel combustion efficiency, optimize auxiliary power consumption, and reduce overall greenhouse gas intensity across the fleet. Decarbonization considerations are also embedded in the Company’s fleet expansion and newbuild program, covering eight vessels across three classes, scheduled for delivery in 2026:
Through a combination of retrofit engine upgrades, onboard energy optimization technologies, and efficiency-enhanced vessel design, Asyad Shipping Company continues to strengthen carbon performance, enhance operational efficiency, and reinforce preparedness for tightening maritime emissions regulations.
