BWBS analyzes vessel AIS data to determine enrolled fleets’ cooperation levels, recognizes the shipping lines whose fleets most consistently adhered to reduced speed requests, and analyzes how these voluntary efforts translate to quantifiable environmental benefits. Collectively in the 2024 Season, participating fleets traveled ~426,000 nautical miles at whale-safer 10 knots or less. 23 shipping lines qualified for the top “Sapphire” award with 85%+ total distance traveled at whale safer speed. "Gold" award lines achieved 60-84% of total distance traveled at whale safer speed.
