In the announcement, Strategic Marine said it has also engaged Metizoft Asia on their LCA – CEC (Carbon Emissions Computation) for their Crew Transfer Vessels, and both initiatives are milestones for Strategic Marine Group to be at the "forefront of sustainability practices."

"Strategic Marine Group is proud to engage Metizoft as their strategic partner to achieve net-zero emission goals. We have a long-standing relationship with Metizoft Asia, having worked with them on Inventory of Hazardous Materials, and this Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) application is an extension of our relationship," said Chan Eng Yew, CEO of Strategic Marine.

"We trust that we are in good hands with their professionalism and expertise," he added.

Clement Chang of Metizoft Asia also welcomed the partnership with Strategic Marine.

"We are honoured that Strategic Marine Group has chosen Metizoft as their partner for their sustainability reporting framework. Our application provides automation in data collection, streamlines reporting processes, and reduces the demand for resources," Chang said.

"Ultimately, sustainability reporting is not only a compliance process but also an operational process which companies need to take heed," the Metizoft Asia chief executive said.
