OceanScore has been selected by ship manager Wallem Group to support the commercial management of emissions compliance across its managed fleet.
The partnership is thought to strengthen OceanScore’s position as a compliance partner to leading third-party ship managers globally, as emissions regulations move from reporting into day-to-day commercial execution. Wallem has signed for OceanScore’s Compliance Manager covering EU ETS and FuelEU Maritime, including access to the FuelEU Pooling Marketplace for vessels within Wallem’s fleet that are sailing to the EU.
Wallem joins a growing group of ship management companies working with OceanScore, including Anglo-Eastern, V.Group and V-Ships, and Wilhelmsen Ahrenkiel, reflecting a clear shift among third-party managers toward structured, system-based management of emissions compliance.
As EU ETS and FuelEU Maritime enter execution phases, third-party managers face increasing commercial responsibility on behalf of owners and charterers. Managing exposure, cost allocation, statements, invoicing, pooling preparation and settlement reliably across large and diverse fleets has become a differentiator in ship management. OceanScore says it supports these requirements through structured, data-based workflows that enable scale, transparency and consistent execution.
Albrecht Grell, MD OceanScore, said: “Third-party managers sit at the centre of compliance execution. They need systems that work reliably across vessels, owners and charterers. Wallem’s decision underlines the growing importance of structured compliance workflows in ship management.”
Leo Grayson, OceanScore Head of Commercial – APAC, added: “Compliance is no longer a reporting exercise. It is a commercial process that must run consistently across fleets. With Wallem, the focus was on transparency, reduced manual effort and reliable execution.”
Maren Moxom, Wallem Group CFO, said: “Managing EU ETS and FuelEU Maritime across a diverse fleet requires clear workflows and dependable data. OceanScore provides the structure we need to manage these obligations efficiently and transparently on behalf of our clients.”
OceanScore today supports more than 100 customers and over 2,500 vessels globally. Earlier in 2026, the company announced it had reached US$ 5m in annual recurring revenue, reflecting rising demand for commercially focused compliance infrastructure. In parallel, OceanScore has recently been mandated by the International Association of Ports and Harbours (IAPH) to act as the globally exclusive administrator of the Environmental Ship Index (ESI), further expanding its role across the maritime value chain and reinforcing its position as long-term compliance infrastructure for shipping, ports and financial stakeholders alike. With Wallem, Anglo-Eastern, V.Group and Wilhelmsen among its customers, OceanScore is reinforcing its role as a long-term compliance infrastructure partner for the ship management community.
As regulatory requirements expand and execution complexity increases, OceanScore’s objective remains unchanged: enabling ship managers and owners to manage compliance efficiently, reduce risk, and make better commercial decisions, turning compliance into commercial success.
