Maritime carbon cost reduction

Bio-LNG for Maritime Compliance

The global economy is underpinned by maritime transport with more than 80% of global trade by volume being transported by sea. The substantial trade volume, extensive voyage distances, and expanding global energy demand, and accompanying fuel transport, results in maritime transport accounting for approximately 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions.

Maritime Emissions and its Compliance Landscape

Shipping companies now face two carbon costs on every voyage:

EU ETS allowance purchases and FuelEU penalty payments. That makes reducing carbon a financial priority, not just an environmental one. Bio-LNG is one of the most practical tools available to cut those costs for LNG-powered fleets.

Reduce Emissions and Stay Compliant

Maritime Bio-LNG is a renewable, drop-in alternative to fossil LNG that enables LNG-powered vessels to:

Reduce verified emissions under EU ETS

Lower GHG intensity under FuelEU Maritime

Avoid penalty exposure

Generate bankable compliance surpluses

With proper certification and structuring, Bio-LNG can reduce lifecycle emissions by up to ~80% compared to fossil LNG, while integrating seamlessly with existing LNG vessel infrastructure.

Operate Confidently in a Multi-Layered Regulatory Environment

Regulation is no longer one-dimensional. EU and global statutory and business development frameworks now overlap, meaning fuel decisions must be made with both compliance exposure and commercial strategy in mind.

Maritime operators now navigate:

EU ETS (carbon allowance purchases at market prices)

FuelEU Maritime (GHG intensity reduction targets)

RED III sustainability criteria

These mechanisms embed carbon cost directly into fleet operations. Bio-LNG provides one of the most effective compliance levers available today.

How We Support You

GO2 Markets combines regulatory expertise, market access, and commercial execution, so you can meet compliance obligations, reduce carbon costs, and monetise over-compliance.

Compliance Assessment — Understand your emissions exposure across FuelEU Maritime and EU ETS, and map the most cost-effective path forward.

Bio- & E-Fuel Procurement — Source and deliver certified Bio-LNG, biomethane, and e-fuels matched to your fleet, routes, and CI targets.

Pooling & Surplus Trading — Turn over-compliance into a commercial asset through pooling and surplus monetisation.

Compliance Assessment & Navigation

We assess your fleet’s EU ETS and FuelEU position, quantify cost exposure, and build an actionable compliance pathway, covering procurement strategy, pooling options, and timing.

Regulatory Intelligence

Navigate complex compliance requirements and reporting timelines across EU.

Procurement Optimization

Compare total cost for biofuel procurement vs. flexibility mechanisms (pooling, banking).

Strategic Positioning

Anticipate FuelEU intensity target escalation and ETS allowance price trends.

Internal Pricing Tool

Quantify FuelEU and ETS compliance costs and identify surplus opportunities; model scenarios for fuel switching.

Bio- & E-Fuel Procurement

The right fuel, from the right source, built around your compliance goals.

Extensive Network & Broad Market Access

Access an integrated European supply chain spanning biomethane producers, Bio-LNG liquefaction, and multi-modal bunkering — with ISCC-certified supply and Proof of Sustainability on every delivery.

Bio-LNG, biomethane, and e-fuels under one roof

Ship-to-ship, truck, and port delivery options

Competitive pricing through our wide producer network

Tailored Fuel Strategy

We match fuel type, CI grade, and procurement structure to your fleet, routes, and regulatory timeline — whether you're managing FuelEU exposure, EU ETS costs, or building compliance surpluses.

Ultra-low CI to standard-grade options

Dual compliance pathway across FuelEU & EU ETS

Bankable surplus generation for over-compliance periods

FuelEU Pooling & Surplus Trading

We structure pooling agreements that match surplus and deficit positions, enabling compliance without penalties and creating a clear route to surplus monetization.

Pool Arrangement:
We arrange compliance pools between overcompliant ships (positive balance) and deficit ships (negative balance) and help find suitable pool partners

Commercial Execution:
We structure, negotiate, and arrange pool agreements commercially as a third party

Compliance Pathway without Penalty:
We ensure deficit operators secure compliance without penalty exposure

Revenue from Decarbonization:
Over compliant operators monetize their decarbonization investments through surplus sales.
