The maritime industry is entering a decisive decade of transformation, driven by evolving regulations, commercial pressures, and a general global shift towards reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Developed by DNV in collaboration with the World Maritime Merchants Forum (WMMF), the Net-Zero Guide provides a structured framework to help shipowners, operators, and managers translate decarbonization objectives into actionable strategies. It focuses on how to align fleet operations, investments, and value-chain partnerships with emerging regulatory and market expectations.

As regulatory and commercial frameworks grow increasingly complex and fragmented, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises, the Guide introduces a clear three-step approach to help companies plan and implement decarbonization measures across short-, medium-, and long-term horizons.
