Maritime data and freight management solutions provider Veson Nautical (Veson), on Monday (27 April) has announced a strategic partnership with independent industry cloud platform, Veracity by DNV, to bring verified emissions data into the heart of operational and commercial shipping workflows. 

The product integration connects Veson’s IMOS with the Veracity platform, enabling emissions figures confirmed by DNV to flow directly into IMOS. Within IMOS, these figures are clearly tagged as verified and integrated directly into voyage financials and P&L — reducing reliance on disconnected systems and manual re-entry.   

The integration addresses the growing need for maritime operators to incorporate compliance and automated data quality checks into daily voyage decisions, P&L tracking, and regulatory reporting. By embedding these inputs directly into live P&L calculations, shipping companies can improve the accuracy of voyage results, reach settlement faster, and reduce audit risk. 

“This collaboration between Veson and Veracity by DNV is an exciting development for us at Hafnia,” said Michael Rasmussen, General Manager, Pool Management at Hafnia. 

“We have historically spent significant time toggling between systems to reconcile emissions data. Having verified, accurate data in one place has the potential to streamline that workflow and make it easier for our teams to work with trusted figures in their day-to-day operations.”  

Looking ahead, the partnership will further expand into an end-to-end emissions reporting and verification workflow. Operational vessel data can be automatically transferred from IMOS to DNV’s Veracity platform, where it can be quality-assured in line with the Operational Vessel Data (OVD) standard and passed to DNV’s verification services in Emissions Connect. 

This will provide joint customers with a continuous data flow from data collection to verified emissions data, which can be used to meet evolving frameworks such as EU ETS, FuelEUMaritime, and additional commercial use cases.

“The industry is moving toward a model where verified data is central to both compliance and commercial performance,” said Sean Riley, President and Chief Operating Officer at Veson Nautical. “With DNV we are connecting those two worlds, bringing trusted emissions data directly into the workflows that drive day-to-day decisions and voyage P&L outcomes.” 

“Together with Veson, we are demonstrating how verified data can unlock new value in commercial operations,” said Mikkel Skou, Executive Director, Veracity by DNV. 

“This partnership is a strong example of our envisioned maritime data ecosystem in action; a collaboration that enables our common customers to use their data as a trusted foundation for better decisions, stronger collaboration, and more efficient operations.”  

The partnership builds on Veracity by DNV’s extensive data network, which has connectivity to more than 65,000 vessels worldwide through automated access to verified data. As part of Veson’s expanding Platform Partner Network, DNV extends that reach into the core system where maritime commerce is managed — giving shipping companies access to trusted data within a more connected ecosystem.

LNG bunker fuel supplier Titan Clean Fuels, part of Molgas, on Friday (24 April) said it has successfully concluded its first pooling exercise for the compliance period 2025 under the FuelEU Maritime regulation, with verification provided by classification society DNV. 

Titan Clean Fuels shared that its first FuelEU pool included several hundred vessels, balancing out operators with compliance deficits with those having positive compliance balances.

“The conclusion of this first pooling round is providing the proof of concept for our FuelEU pooling service, which we are aiming to roll out to the benefit of even more over- and under-compliant vessels in 2026 and the following years,” said Grégoire Hartig, Commercial Director at Titan.

Titan manages the FuelEU Pooling process from end to end, including the provision of over-compliant LBM, accepting or excluding new vessels, and the verification of the pool by DNV. It takes full contractual responsibility along the chain. This means it can drive the generation of compliance and respond to bunker and pooling market dynamics. Its know-your-customer (KYC) processes also ensure all pooling counterparts fulfil their financial commitments and abide by sanctions.

As a bunker vessel owner, Titan also manages its own ships in the pool. In this pooling period, approximately 73% of the LNG consumption by Titan’s Optimus bunker vessel was liquefied biomethane (LBM/bio-LNG). Titan expects that to be about 100% LBM in the next pooling phase.

“Pooling was designed to provide a competitive advantage to all alternative fuels, with LNG and LBM in particular delivering on the regulation’s potential today. Our customers running LNG-fuelled vessels were able to benefit from their early investment into cleaner propulsion, and several LNG-fuelled vessels chose to run on LBM, backed by the value generated from pooling,” Hartig added.

According to Titan, this progress showed that the European Commission has designed and implemented FuelEU Maritime well. The pooling mechanism is an essential, flexible and well-thought-out tool that smoothly but firmly pushes the shipping industry’s transition towards low-carbon propulsion.

“As shipowners and operators look to improve their environmental performance, create value and manage their exposure to FuelEU penalties, pooling is set to be a shipping trend to watch in 2026 and beyond,” the company added.

Ahti Climate on Wednesday (25 March) announced that BBC Chartering has signed an agreement to partner with the Ahti Pool to deliver the FuelEU Maritime compliance for several of its vessels.

Under the agreement, BBC Chartering will purchase 5,000 tCO2e through Ahti Pool to fulfil its compliance obligations.

Ahti Pool offers a straightforward, cost‑efficient route to FuelEU Maritime compliance. Pool members share compliance obligations across participating ships, benefiting from the Pool’s economies of scale.

Ahti Pool is a fully neutral FuelEU Maritime solution and is not tied to any single compliance option. In Ahti Pool’s experience, a typical ship will need approximately 150-200 tCO2e to fulfil its FuelEU Maritime compliance obligations in 2026.

By joining Ahti Pool, BBC Chartering gains access to a proprietary emissions‑management platform, market‑leading pooling mechanisms and bunker sourcing that are designed specifically to deliver cost‑effective compliance with FuelEU Maritime.

Ahti Pool manages hundreds of vessels from leading owners and operators – including Van Weelde Group, Bore, Spliethoff, Stenersen and Neste – and administers more than EUR 100 million of emissions exposure. Its model lets members transfer emissions savings from over‑complying ships to those needing additional compliance, helping avoid penalties and creating potential financial upside through use of renewable green fuels.

Christoph Deters, Chief Operations Officer at BBC Chartering, said: “After analysing available FuelEU Maritime compliance options and assessing the costs and resources required we have chosen to enroll part of the BBC Chartering fleet into Ahti Pool. 

“Being part of Ahti Pool will enable us to optimize our compliance costs and support our wider decarbonisation strategy while holding up our service model “Any port. Any cargo.”

Risto‑Juhani Kariranta, Chief Executive Officer at Ahti Climate, said: “We are delighted to welcome BBC Chartering into Ahti Pool. BBC’s scale, operational reach and commitment to environmentally conscious shipping strengthen the Pool’s capacity to deliver cost‑effective FuelEU compliance. 

“The arrival of BBC Chartering into Ahti Pool is testament to our pooling mechanisms’ ability to make the green transition more affordable and practical for shipowners and operators.”
