BRUNEI MYCE @ CLIMATE CHANGE WEEK

 

Brunei Gas Carriers (BGC) kicked off the Climate Change Week @bruneimyce by launching its Clean Rivers, Clean Seas campaign, with the theme “Sustaining A Cleaner and Greener Future.”

BGC, in collaboration with @greenbrunei , are working together to support the Brunei Darussalam National Council on Climate Change’s target to increase carbon sink through planting 500,000 trees by 2035 under its Clean Rivers, Clean Seas campaign. Over the next four days, visitors at the BGC booth can take part in the Clean Rivers, Clean Seas campaign by adopting a tree sapling provided by Green Brunei.

We are happy to announce that a total of 185 tree saplings have already been adopted by the public on our opening day. Do not worry as we still have plenty more up for grabs.

So do stop by our booth from today, 22nd June 2022, until Saturday, 25th June 2022 to take part in our Clean Rivers, Clean Seas campaign. We look forward to seeing you there.

Let us work together “towards a low carbon and climate-resilient nation.”

Farewell ABADI

On June 20, 2022, BGC bid a final farewell to its longest serving A-Class vessel, the S.S. Abadi, before she returns to her new owner next month.

The sale of S.S. Abadi comes as part of BGC’s long-term strategy to move away from steam-operated vessels in favour of greener and more fuel-efficient motor-operated vessels amidst on-going regulatory pressure to reduce greenhouse gas pollutants and our vessels’ carbon footprint.

With a heavy heart, we bid farewell to a vessel that not only symbolises BGC but also the Nation as it has in so many ways contributed to Brunei’s economy, spreading knowledge and experience of our bustling Bruneian talent over the past 20 years.

To all those who have served onboard the Abadi past and present, we wish to thank you for your contributions, and to the Abadi, Selamat Jalan, we wish you fair winds and following seas.

BGC… Shipping Energy, First-Class
