The path to decarbonization is not defined by a single solution.

It is built through many steps, from exploring alternative fuels to preparing our fleet and turning ambition into measurable progress.

Here’s what that journey looks like in numbers:

🔸 2045
Our ambition: net-zero* fleet operations

🔸 ~1/3
Targeted reduction in absolute GHG emissions by 2030

🔸 50
Vessels with dual-fuel propulsion by the end of this decade

🔸 16,000 tonnes
Biomethane consumed in 2025

🔸 400+
Efficiency measures implemented across our fleet since 2022

Every number tells part of the story. Together, they show how we are advancing decarbonization through action, investment, and measurable progress: Fuel ➡️ Fleet ➡️ Facts.

*Our Net-Zero 2045 ambition builds on our DNV-verified roadmap and foresees progressive fleet renewal, efficiency improvements, network speed reductions, and increasing use of alternative fuels, including e-fuels.

Sailing on our NE2 service, she connects Central and South China with North Europe via the Cape of Good Hope.

Now we're curious: where in the world is the “Hamburg Express” today? 👇

Who has seen Caucedo, Cartagena, Manzanillo, Buenaventura, Posorja, Callao and San Antonio by the age of 20? 🌍

Ida Lorenschat has. But her Seafarer Story is about more than the places she visited. It is about changing course, finding her place in the engine room and holding on to her goal of returning to sea.

The path to lower emissions requires more than one solution.

That's why alternative fuels are a key part of shipping's decarbonization journey.

From drop-in biodiesel to biomethane and methanol, different fuel options can play different roles in shaping the vessels and operations of tomorrow.

That's why we're exploring and working with a diverse fuel mix, adapting our approach as technologies and infrastructure evolve.

This is how we're driving the energy transition: Fuel ➡️ Fleet ➡️ Facts.

World Maritime Day 2026 highlights a simple but important truth: regulations only create value when they are put into practice. With around 80% of global trade transported by sea, shipping is the backbone of the global economy, connecting businesses, communities, and markets around the world.

Under the IMO theme "From Policy to Practice: Powering Maritime Excellence", the maritime community is focused on turning international standards into safer operations, stronger environmental performance, and greater resilience across the industry. The @ International Maritime Organization (IMO) sets the global framework, while organizations such as the @ World Shipping Council (WSC) support collaboration and help drive its implementation across the sector.

At Hapag-Lloyd, global standards are translated into action every day, from cargo acceptance and vessel operations to environmental, safety, and cyber risk management, ensuring that international standards are implemented across our operations.

By turning commitments into action, we help safeguard our people, our cargo, and the oceans that connect the world. 🌊
