First clients for the SWM platform aimed at generating carbon credits


First market results for the new Sea World Management platform recently established to offer carbon credits to ship charterers. Last week, during the start session of Cop26, already well established clients of the Monaco based group have placed the first investment in the company’s new carbon credit platform.

This investment, the first entry through the system set up by SWM, has been made in the European market with one of the platform partners and the company hopes other operators will follow the same strategy in the coming days.

According to the head of projects, Jonathan Koren, “SWM is very pleased to make this first investment on behalf of its clients, and hope to expand upon this existing project quickly, within a market area that shows great opportunity of development”.

When considering the world of shipping is being further pressed to adopt serious measures in view of dramatically reducing emissions, Sea World Management has embraced the challenge on two different fronts, both aimed at achieving a balance between the GHG emitted and GHG removed.  The company expects the carbon trading market to surpass $1 billion in overall value traded this year, and is looking to expand their services in this market.
