Protection of Ecosystem and Biodiversity
The ocean is the blue home where human beings rely on for survival and development.The Company is well aware of the vital importance of protecting the marine ecology. Adhering to the philosophy of green operation,we take the initiative to identify and assess the potential impacts of ship navigation and related business activities on biodiversity, and effectively respondtoandcontinuouslymonitortheidentifiedriskfactors.
Optimization of Routes
ManagementofBallastWater
Whenplanning navigationroutes,wefullyutilize the automatic route inspectionfunction of the Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS), setting Particularly Sensitive Sea Areas (PSSA) and important marine biodiversity protection areas as no-go areas. This ensures that ships avoid these areas during navigation, effectivelyprotecting biodiversity.
Adhering to therequirements of theInternationalConventionfortheControland Management of Ships' Ballast Water and Sediments,weinstallefficientBallastWater Management Systems (BWMS) on ships, and standardizeballastwatertreatmentprocedures, including cleaning and inspection before ballast operations, conditions and methods for ballast water exchange, and key steps for handling sediments and preventing its entry. We ensure that ballast water discharge duringnavigationdoesnot cause abnormal migration of marine organisms, maintaining thehealth and stability of marine ecosystems.
We also take measures (such as optimizing the design of shipping routes, strengthening the management of ballast water, and implementing the implementation of noise reduction in navigation) to activelyprotect themarine biodiversity,and ensurethat the Company'sbusiness operationsdonotcause any damage or interference to the marine ecology.
Reduction of Naviga tionNoise
The Company prioritizes noise reduction duringtheshipdesignandconstruction phases, adopts low-noise equipment and reduces speed when approaching Particularly Sensitive SeaAreas and marine biodiversity protection zones, thus effectively reducing noise andvibrationfromthepropeller and engine room equipment.

Real-TimeShipStatus Monitoring and Warning System:
Intelligent Navigation Optimization System:
Thereal-time status monitoring and multi-levelwarningfunctions havebeenrealizedfor key equipment on ships such as the engine, the fuel system, and the navigation system. Through real-time data transmission, key equipment status informationcanbe shared between the shipand shore.Onceany abnormality is detected in the equipment,the systemautomaticallytriggersawarningand sends it to the shore-based support team.
Intelligent navigation optimization modules have been launched, integrating external data such as weather forecasts, ocean current speeds, and channel data to provide crew members with the best route suggestions. Thishelps ships reach their destinations safely in the shortest time possible. The platform canpredictpotentialweatherrisks along the voyage and promptly alert ships to adjust their routes.
Remote Maintenance and SupportModule:
Monitoring and Management of Ships' Energy Consumption:
A remote maintenance system has been established, allowing the shore-based support team to remotely monitor and diagnose ship equipment, provide real-time technical support, reduce ship downtime due to equipment failures, and improve the continuity and stability of ship operations.
An energy consumption monitoring module hasbeendeveloped to monitor thefuel consumption and energy efficiency of ships in real time, support data collection and analysis, and provide management with a basis for optimizing energy consumption strategies.
