Knutsen NYK Offshore Tankers AS's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Nippon Yusen Kabushiki Kaisha

Knutsen NYK Offshore Tankers AS, headquartered in Norway, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is a current subsidiary of TS Shipping Invest AS, which may influence its emissions profile and climate commitments. As of now, Knutsen NYK Offshore Tankers AS has not established any documented reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate initiatives. This lack of specific targets suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. Given the absence of emissions data and reduction initiatives, it is essential for Knutsen NYK Offshore Tankers AS to develop a comprehensive approach to carbon management and set measurable targets to align with industry standards and expectations. This would not only enhance their sustainability profile but also contribute positively to the broader maritime industry's efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
