Odfjell is committed to driving sustainable progress across the maritime industry. As part of our long-standing efforts to improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions, we continue to lead with the world’s most energy-efficient deep-sea chemical tanker fleet.
We transport and store some of the world’s most hazardous liquids through some of its most fragile environments – often close to communities where people live and work. This unique role comes with a profound responsibility:
to protect people, safeguard the environment, and operate with integrity.
Society and our customers place their trust in us to manage these materials to the highest standards of safety, environmental stewardship, and quality control. This is why safety is not only our top priority, but also a core pillar of our broader ESG commitment.
Odfjell recognizes that safe operations are inseparable from environmental care, social responsibility, and strong governance. From minimizing emissions and preventing spills to engaging transparently with stakeholders, we embed ESG principles into every aspect of our operations. Our goal is clear: to ensure that today’s essential resources are handled responsibly, without compromising the health of people, communities, or the planet – progressing towards ambitious targets, driving sustainable growth and fostering innovation.
Aligned with the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), our sustainability statement provides a comprehensive and transparent overview of Odfjell’s approach to responsible business conduct and ESG performance. It outlines both our material impacts on people and the environment, as well as how sustainability factors influence our operations and long-term value creation.
Sustainability sits at the core of how we operate, with clear targets to cut carbon intensity and reach net-zero emissions by 2050. From categorizing emissions across every operational scope to investing in zero-emission-capable vessels, we take a systematic and transparent approach to our environmental impact. Explore how we set our climate goals, track our progress, and chart our course toward a cleaner future for shipping, society, and the planet.
People are at the heart of everything we do, whether they work at sea, onshore, or across our global supply chains. We're building a safe, fair, and inclusive workplace through strong safety culture, meaningful progress on gender diversity, and unwavering respect for human and labor rights. Explore how these commitments shape our daily operations and guide our long-term goals for our people and partners.
Governance practices are designed to protect the interests of all stakeholders while promoting sustainable growth. The governance framework also incorporates ESG considerations, ensuring that environmental, social, and governance responsibilities are embedded into decision-making and strategy execution.
