Environmental Policy and Regulatory Compliance
In accordance with Article 11 of the "Sustainable Development Best Practice Principles for TWSE/TPEx Listed Companies," Shih Wei has established an environmental management policy. Our fleet fully complies with the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL). We actively mitigate the impact of operations on marine ecosystems by installing Ballast Water Management Systems (BWMS) and oily water separators approved by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG). To strengthen GHG and energy management, the Company evaluates energy efficiency and utilizes weather forecasting indicators combined with software monitoring systems to dynamically track vessel CII data, ensuring the optimization of fuel efficiency.
Management Systems and Third-Party Verification
The Company has fully implemented the International Safety Management Code (ISM Code) in compliance with IMO regulations and established a comprehensive Safety Management System (SMS). The functions of this system are substantially equivalent to an environmental management system, covering policies for safe ship operation, pollution prevention, and environmental protection. The Company and its fleet have undergone rigorous audits by ClassNK, a third-party verification body, and have obtained the Document of Compliance (DOC) and the Safety Management Certificate (SMC), effectively demonstrating third-party verified management performance in maritime safety and environmental protection.
Implementation Results
The primary execution outcomes for the year 2025 are as follows:
- Low-Carbon Operations: Implemented EEXI and CII regulations through energy management policies and maintained dynamic monitoring of fuel efficiency.
- Ecological Preservation: Ensured the proper operation of fleet BWMS and oily water separators, fulfilling our commitment to zero pollution.
- Resource Reduction: Promoted green shipping by implementing strict waste classification and reduction tracking across both vessels and shore.
