TotalEnergies adopts LR OneOcean's technology to reduce vessel emissions

France’s energy giant TotalEnergies has entered a partnership with Lloyd’s Register OneOcean, Lloyd’s Register’s digital solutions platform, to deploy the latter’s advanced route optimization technology across its shipping operations.

As disclosed, this optimization solution harnesses the “power” of both the Lloyd’s Register OneOcean platform and its vessel operations team to grant visibility into the performance of each vessel.

Lloyd’s Register revealed the technology collects and analyses high-frequency vessel data and non-reported data to create “accurate” fuel consumption models, claiming that by combining these models with “accurate” insights of route optimization from the vessel operation team, the system can “precisely simulate and improve fuel efficiency for any given voyage.” These insights are intended to help TotalEnergies make better operational decisions, leading to fuel savings and reduced emissions across its fleet.

To note, in a trial of this solution, conducted before full adoption, TotalEnergies reportedly saved 725 metric tonnes of fuel and 2256 metric tonnes of CO2 emissions across its chartered fleet to date.

Sebastien Roche, General Manager – Shipping Performance and Innovation, TotalEnergies, commented: “We are thrilled to integrate LR OneOcean route optimisation to enhance
