NEDA Maritime MRV-Ready, Says Verifavia

Verifavia Shipping (Verifavia) has announced that, following a "pre-verification GAP-Analysis,"Neda Maritime Agency Co. Ltd (NEDA Maritime) has been cleared as MRV-ready and "on course" for compliance with the European Union's (EU's) Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (MRV) regulation.

As Ship & Bunker has previously reported, shipping companies must submit ship-specific monitoring plans to verifiers for approval by the end of the August 2017, with per-voyage monitoring set to start on January 1, 2018.

Verifavia says the benefit of the pre-verification process, which assesses the existing data accounting procedures and systems against the requirements of the MRV regulation, is that compliance and system design issues can be identified and corrected by ship owners and operators before enforcement begins.

During the process, Verifavia says it also reviews company procedures for collecting, transmitting, and transforming voyage, fuel, and cargo data, and performs in-depth analysis on each company's carbon emissions and activity data. [...]​
