MOL to publish emission performance indicators


Shipping line to publish data as part of its strategy to share service performance information with clients.



Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL) has announced the launch of a plan to regularly publish the results of several key performance indicators (KPIs) for its containership service globally in the following categories: Environmental, Operations and Safety.

Environmental : Reduction ratio of CO2, NOx & SOx

Operations : Vessel on-time performance percentage

Safety : Number of long-time(*) operational stoppages per year, for consecutive 3 days or more

MOL says it has established a set of goals for each of the 3 KPIs in an effort to offer transparency to customers and "to showcase MOL's strength as a carrier that provides high-quality service".

In addition to the above global KPIs, MOL says it is planning to launch Regional KPIs that are more specific for and focussed on the services required in each region.

"MOL has already been very transparent with our on-time performance and now it is making a point to provide additional KPI results for customers. This expanded effort to share service performance with the world will show customers that when they need reliable containership services they can 'Count on MOL', MOL said.

The KPI results will be published on March 6 and shared with customers on a dedicated website: www.CountOnMOL.com, which is also linked from MOL's Containership service global website: www.MOLPower.com.
