The Government of Canada awarded C$18.1 M from its Low Carbon Economy Fund to Rio Tinto's Iron Ore Company of Canada (IOC) to support the decarbonization of iron ore processing at its operations in Labrador West. The funding will enable IOC to reduce the amount of heavy fuel oil that is consumed in the production of iron ore pellets and concentrate. The company will install an electric boiler to displace emissions from the usage of the heavy fuel oil boilers, as well as instrumentation and fuel-efficient burners to further reduce heavy fuel oil consumption from induration machines. Over the lifetime of this project, IOC will see a cumulative reduction of about 2.2 M tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions. Installation of the new equipment will begin in 2Q 2024 and is expected to be completed in 1H 2025. The project will create more than 100 jobs during the construction and implementation stages in Labrador West. The Government of Canada's contribution represents approximately 25% of the total cost of the project, with IOC funding the remainder of the investment.

bp and Maersk Tankers, with support from the Danish Maritime Authority, have successfully completed trials using biofuel-blended marine fuel in product tankers, demonstrating that sustainable biofuels can be used as a marine 'drop-in fuel' to help reduce carbon emissions in shipping. Global shipping accounts for around 3% of the global carbon emissions. The companies came together in this trial as part of their contribution to the decarbonization of the industry. The trials were completed on Maersk Cirrus and Maersk Navigator - product tankers on time-charter to bp from Maersk Tankers. Each vessel was supplied with bp Marine B30 biofuel, consisting of 30% fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) blended with very low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO). The trials saw the vessels sail from Rotterdam to West Africa. Throughout the trials, tests were carried out to assess the reliability and performance of the B30 biofuel blend in each ship's main engine, auxiliary engine and boiler, and any impact on fuel tanks to determine the level of interchangeability with other fuel types. No adverse effects to equipment or machinery were observed during or after the trials. No modifications to the engine or infrastructure were required, demonstrating the suitability of sustainable biofuels for use as a 'drop in fuel'. bp aims to regularly supply biofuel blends for their operated and time-charter vessels when they refuel in the Netherlands, subject to owners and Flag-state approval. bp is working with companies in key industrial sectors that have significant carbon emissions to manage, supporting their work to decarbonize. This is part of its ongoing efforts to help decarbonize the shipping industry. Maersk Tankers is developing and deploying solutions that help shipowners boost the economic and environmental performance of their vessels. Through its pools and industry-wide collaboration, the company is working in partnerships to contribute to a more sustainable future for the industry.
