Singapore, Australia ink MoU to create green, digital shipping corridor

They will develop eco-friendly fuel supply chains for the maritime industry.

Singapore and Australia inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to establish the Singapore-Australia Green and Digital Shipping Corridor (GDSC).

Under the MoU, the countries will collaborate with stakeholders to develop zero or near-zero greenhouse gas emission fuel supply chains for the maritime industry, including infrastructure development, standardization, and training implementation.

Additionally, the agreement aims to facilitate digital information exchange for efficient port clearance, calls, and vessel flow between the two nations. 

The partnership also involves coordination between the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore, Australian federal, state, and territory governments, and industry stakeholders.

Australia's potential as a green marine fuel producer aligns with Singapore's status as the world's largest bunkering and busiest transhipment hub port.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
