SHIPYARDS
LAW OF THE LAND EU regulation requires listed companies with an average of more than 500 employees per year and 40 million Euros of revenues or 20 million Euros of total assets to report on their ESG activities in a three-year timeframe by publishing a Non-Financial Report along with its Financial Statement.
TISG will publish its Non-Financial Report in April 2023, in compliance with the GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) standards and will state its improvement goals in terms of Environment, Social and Governance. On top of this, TISG has decided to align its ESG goals to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) defined by the UN Agenda 2030.
So there are laws in place to report, but not, points out Giedo Loeff that restrict harmful activity and Feadship’s voluntary measures to restrict negative impact are way ahead of legislation.
On the Côte d’Azur the Monaco Marine yards are subject to local regulations similar to those for the automobile industry. All of its sites are signed up to Installations Classées pour la Protection de l’Environnement (ICPB), similar to the Corporations for a Better Planet Initiative. It also adheres to French Directive 1978 relating to the management of solvents. New regulations on biocides (antifouling) are due in 2026. Says Queva, “In anticipation of this, we have forged direct partnerships with key manufacturers and are researching different materials, such as graphene.”
Martino del Nevo reports from Cantiere delle Marche that Italians are bound by national legislative decree 152 which consists of six individual parts and includes water and soil protection, waste and reclamation, emissions, environmental impact assessment and integrated pollution prevention and control (IPPC).
ADRIA DOCKS Adria Docks has floating docks with a lifting capacity of 8,500 and 800 tons, an equipped shore, and a jetty with a total length of about 300 m and is able to carry out work along the shore or in the docks, as well as service, repairs or modifications of all types of ships, yachts and superyachts up to 150 m. A particularly noteworthy part of their offer is the test station for motors, with a power of up to 3.4 MW, which provides detailed motor testing before installation or after reconstruction, under real load. For maintenance and repairs that require a longer period, they offer a lifting service with a travel lift that can carry up to 600 tons as well as accommodation on a dry dock.

FORWARD LOOKING Loeff at Feadship doesn’t so much have environmental hopes for the future, he has plans. He says, “It is about improving efficiency, fuel flexible designs that can adapt to the energy transition and power system future to allow for refits/upgrades when multi-fuel engines and fuel cells become widely available.”
Queva looks to modernising the shipyards and developing intelligent energy management, plus developing an environmentally responsible supply chain and forging ahead with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). He says, “The environmental element is key to our ethics and our success and is a constant consideration in our developments: as an example the new 300 t lift at the Beaulieu site will be 100% ecological, operating on air - no grease or chemical products. At La Ciotat we have big plans that we hope the local authorities will approve: a zero air emission target, short-circuit reprocessing of plastic, a 30% reduction in waste, the replacement of sandblasting with a new process that reduces pollution and waste by 90%, hydrogen propelled assembly lines and powder recycling.”
Explains Martino del Nevo at Cantiere delle Marche the yard has a long list attached to its environmental plan of action for 2023: it includes small as well as lofty ambitions such as;
