Trafigura Group Pte Ltd, a market leader in the global commodities industry, has announced a strategic alliance with maritime technology company ZeroNorth, according to the company's release.
Trafigura will deploy ZeroNorth’s platform across its controlled fleet of more than 350 vessels, encompassing voyage optimisation systems, emissions analytics and vessel reporting tools.
Trafigura will also take an equity stake in ZeroNorth to deepen collaboration.
ZeroNorth’s technology leverages advanced artificial intelligence and real‑time data—including live weather conditions, vessel specifications, ship performance data and fuel availability—to enable continuous optimisation of operational performance.
The implementation of ZeroNorth’s solutions is expected to reduce both fuel consumption and carbon emissions across Trafigura’s chartered fleet.
As part of the agreement, Trafigura will join ZeroNorth’s group of strategic partners and contribute practical industry insights to product development, playing an active role in shaping the company’s long‑term direction.
