Malaysia-based Yinson GreenTech and RMS Marine & Offshore Service (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. have signed a letter of intent (LOI) to advance marine electrification and sustainable maritime solutions in Singapore.

Yinson GreenTech said in a statement on last Thursday that under the LOI, RMS intends to collaborate with Yinson GreenTech to explore the adoption of electric vessels to support its maritime operations within the Port Limits of Singapore.

Yinson GreenTech will manage the vessels’ operations and maintenance, ensuring reliable and efficient performance.

RMS will collaborate with Yinson GreenTech on the Marine Digital Platform to enhance transparency and enable data-driven monitoring of its logistics services.

“We are delighted to be partnering with RMS in offering novel green technologies for their business needs,

“This milestone sets the basis for Yinson GreenTech to bring cleaner, smarter fleet solutions to the market in supporting maritime decarbonization. Together, we are advancing the shift toward sustainable operations across the industry,” said Jan-Viggo Johansen, Managing Director of marinEV, the marine electrification business of Yinson GreenTech.

Cindy Fan, Group Executive Director of RMS, said this collaboration reflects the firm’s commitment to keeping pace with the maritime sector’s growing focus on decarbonization to achieve sustainable supply chains.

“Adopting electric vessels is a fine example of collaboration across the maritime ecosystem, supporting Singapore’s broader push for cleaner and more resilient maritime operations,

“Ultimately, we believe this will also value add to our customers in their journey to measure, optimize and reduce scope 3 carbon emission,” she added.

The LOI follows the successful completion of a trial that both parties held on 23 May at Sudong Special Purpose Anchorage.

The trials saw the deployment of Yinson GreenTech’s Hydromover to facilitate the transport of light cargo, demonstrating its ability to perform reliably in a live operational environment.

The Hydromover, having completed its trip, showcased its efficiency and potential as a net-zero alternative harbor craft.
