Environmental Stewardship
PIL is committed to improving the impact of our businesses and operations on the environment. By optimising energy efficiency, adopting cleaner fuels and embracing renewable energy, we actively reduce our greenhouse gas emissions footprint and contribute to a healthier planet.
As we ply the oceans, we are cognizant of our duty of care to safeguard the very same marine ecosystems which we operate in. We adopt responsible practices to protect marine biodiversity, mitigate pollution, and promote a healthy ocean. From sustainable shipping operations to coastal conservation, we aim to protect the delicate balance of life below water.

For example, the adoption of energy-efficient technologies for our vessels not only benefit the environment but also improve our cost efficiencies. By making smart investments in technology and innovations, we can further enhance our enterprise value.
We also consider that embracing sustainability connects us better with the values of our diverse stakeholders, including investors who consider ESG factors in their decision making. Our commitment strengthens our financial resilience while generating a positive impact on the planet and people.
