Calmocean ESG Assessments: What Actually Happens?
There is a lot of variation in what different companies call a yard ESG audit. At Calmocean, it means a structured process that runs from document review through to on-site inspection and worker interviews; covering environmental performance, waste and emissions management, worker safety, and how the yard manages its downstream subcontractor network. That last piece is often where the gaps are. What a yard presents and controls in its documentation and what is actually happening further down the chain are not always the same thing, and a desk-based assessment rarely catches the difference.
For Norwegian shipowners, this kind of due diligence has become directly relevant to Transparency Act obligations. Mapping your supply chain is one thing; being able to demonstrate that you have verified conditions on the ground is another. Our audits are designed to give owners both a clear picture of a yard's real ESG standing, and documentation that holds up when it matters. With more than 115 yards audited across the new build, repair and major recycling destinations, we carry that comparative context into every assessment.
