Carbon offsetting has made the leap to LNG cargoes as the battle for both energy sellers and buyers to show a decarbonised supply chain hots up.

The industry has seen its first so-called “carbon neutral” LNG cargoes over the last 18 months.

Cargoes are marketed as carbon neutral when the sellers and/or buyers of the LNG buy credits from carbon removal projects — such as reforestation or renewables — to mitigate the emissions from producing, shipping and delivering a cargo.
