Klaveness Combination Carriers

Welcome to Future Bound, a Podcast by Klaveness Combination Carriers (KCC). As the world leader in combination carriers, KCC owns and operates eight CABU and eight CLEANBU combination carriers with three CABU vessels under construction for delivery in 2026. KCC’s combination carriers are built for transportation of both wet and dry bulk cargoes, being operated in trades where the vessels efficiently combine dry and wet cargoes with minimum ballast. Through their high utilization and efficiency, the vessels emit up to 40% less CO2 per transported ton compared to standard tanker and dry bulk vessels in current and targeted combination trading patterns. The podcast will bring you episodes from the KCC team responsible for commercial, technical, and all day-to-day operations. We’ll from others in the Klaveness organization specializing in market analysis, decarbonization, and we’ll bring you discussions with industry peers and other external guests we interview along the way.

    MEPC 83 — Are We on the Right Track?

    The IMO’s draft Net-Zero Framework, developed at MEPC 83, marked a major step forward in maritime climate regulation. But is it enough to put shipping on track for reaching net-zero, and will it pass the final hurdle at IMO’s extraordinary session in October 2025? In this episode, KCC’s Head of Decarbonization Peter Rayers sits down with Helene Tofte, Executive Director of the Department of International Cooperation and Climate at the Norwegian Shipowner’s Association. Together, they dig into what still needs to happen before the framework is adopted in October, and how its design could impact the way shipping companies plan, invest, and operate in the years ahead. Discussion points: Will the Net Zero Framework be adopted in October? Which parts of the regulation still need to be clarified or developed: such as biofuels treatment, compliance rules, and pricing/rewards? How might the regulation evolve over the 2030s, progressively or regressively, and how should the industry plan around that uncertainty? What does the NZF mean for KCC’s strategy: supporting energy efficiency, future fuels, and the value of our vessel concept? Helene Tofte is the Executive Director of the Department of International Cooperation and Climate. She has the overarching responsibility for the Norwegian Shipowners’ Association’s international engagement and climate activities, with special focus on monitoring international climate processes and our participation in the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS).
