Why use our data?

Meet IMO regulations

The EU ETS could see the cost of freight increase by 8-15%, driven by the price of CO2. Our global marine carbon benchmarks allow you to make informed decisions around the vessels you charter.

Reflective indexes

For these benchmarks, only routes that originate or terminate in EU/EEA countries have been chosen. These are reflective of the jurisdictions which fall under regulations from 2024 onwards.
