From the United States to Singapore and Hong Kong, Maersk has won praise and awards for its focus on the environment.

The awards reflect the increased visibility of Maersk Line's and Maersk Tankers' environment initiatives.

In Singapore, Maersk Line has been awarded "Best Green Service Provider – Shipping Line" at the 25th annual Asian Freight & Supply Chain Awards.

"This affirms the increasing emphasis customers place on CO2 emissions and environmental impact, and we will continue to work towards greater energy efficiency and improving our environmental performance," said Thomas Knudsen, Chief Executive Officer for Maersk Line Asia Pacific region.

Revenue for the period increased by 10% to USD 14.5bn (USD 13.2bn), primarily due to higher container freight rates, container volumes and oil prices. The profit for the period increased by 82% to USD 1.2bn (USD 0.6bn) and was driven by better operational performance in most business units. The Group’s ROIC increased to 11.7% (7.6%). "We have had a good start to the year and are very satisfied with the results. Our businesses have performed very well, even as tanker rates have remained low and container rates have been decreasing during the period. In the past six months we have made significant investments in ships, terminals, drilling rigs and oil fields. These reflect our continued strong confidence in the long term future of our markets and not least our ability to continue to compete successfully,” says Group CEO Nils S. Andersen.
