Norway's Klaveness Combination Carriers (KCC) has set itself the ambitious goal of meeting the IMO's 40% emissions cut target by 2022.

This would beat the 2030 decarbonisation deadline by eight years.

The pledge is further evidence that some shipowners are stepping up their eco-programmes and comes a week after Norwegian owner Simon Mokster Shipping said it would cut CO2 emissions by 70% by 2030.
