The Ocean Solutions Award was launched to showcase breakthrough innovations on show at Nor-Shipping. The inaugural Award was awarded in front of an audience of 1000 C-level executives at Nor-Shipping’s Open Leadership Conference in April 2022.

The Ocean Solutions Award was connected to Nor-Shipping’s 2022 theme: “Your Arena for Ocean Solutions”, focusing on taking positive business #ACTION in the ocean space, leading the way to a more sustainable industry future.
Daphne Technology was honoured to be announced as the winner of the first-ever inaugural award, with our innovative solution that simultaneously reduces all toxic and climate pollutant emissions for ships powered by heavy/residual fuel, LNG, and future fuels.
A statement from the award’s jury noted: “After a very animated selection meeting, the jury decided that the winning candidate had demonstrated a new and highly innovative solution for not one but several issues that shipping must cope with. While regulators may sometimes take a piecemeal approach to a subject such as shipping emissions, with each solution posing more problems as new requirements are added, the winning candidate has clearly looked at the issue and combined existing and future requirements into a single innovation.”
Daphne is proud and honoured to be recognised for the mission and purpose we work hard for every day, especially amongst the quantity and calibre of our contestants. A huge thank you to Nor-Shipping for a remarkable event and conference and to the jury of the Ocean Solutions Award 2022!
