Siglar Carbon decarbonises commercial shipping now – not in 30 years

- Siglar Carbon provides a digital managed service for commercial shipping emissions data and voyage-level decision support. It takes required reporting data and turns it into insights for choices about vessel, route and logistics. The service can monitor individual voyages around the clock and is intended to help companies make lower-emission operating decisions while tracking associated costs.
- The company’s Carbon Index estimates emissions on major shipping routes and carbon costs for routes affected by the EU Emissions Trading System. The page says it uses real-time data from available relevant vessels, including estimates for ballast and laden legs and port stays. Comparing high-, middle- and low-emitting vessels is intended to show potential reductions from informed pre-fixture decisions. The page gives an example that selecting a more suitable vessel could halve voyage emissions; this is a stated potential, not a universal measured result.
- The article describes carbon costs and operating costs as linked and says regulatory requirements increase the value of emissions data. It notes the EU ETS expansion to maritime shipping from 1 January 2024. It also cites a cargo-shipping market projection approaching USD 4.2 trillion by 2031; this is a market forecast.
- Siglar offers managed service because many shipping firms may lack capacity or expertise to handle growing data and regulation. Its market positioning emphasizes present voyage decisions rather than waiting for future vessel technologies. CEO statements are paraphrased.
