Cargo FootPrint (CargoFP)

by OceanScore

Supporting maritime decarbonization with accurate data

Updated by Onye Dike on August 15th, 2025
Cargo FP (Cargo FootPrint) by OceanScore gives freight forwarders, shippers and logistics platforms voyage-specific, modeled CO₂ numbers for each shipment rather than route averages. It combines real-time AIS vessel tracking with primary vessel data and AI-based cargo estimation to reflect actual speed, route, fuel and utilization on every sailing. That precision supports carrier benchmarking, cost exposure analysis and supplier reporting across Scope 3 ocean freight. An API delivers the data directly into existing logistics or carbon accounting tools, and the approach has been recognized in Drewry’s emissions-measurement rankings for accuracy and reliability for forwarders today.

Core Features

Cargo FP calculates shipment-level emissions using real-time vessel data and modeling, not static trade-lane averages. Methodologically, it leverages AIS-based vessel tracking, vessel characteristics, and AI-assisted cargo estimation; OceanScore and partners also highlight digital-twin modeling, Well-to-Wake coverage, and alignment with ISO 14083 and EU taxonomy expectations.

Features of Cargo FP include:

  • Voyage-specific calculations grounded in live operations. Cargo FP models emissions from the actual route, speed and fuel consumption patterns of each voyage using real-time AIS and daily primary vessel data thereby avoiding inflated averages.

  • Digital-twin vessel modeling per sea-leg. For every relevant vessel in the global fleet, Cargo FP builds a digital twin and factors vessel-specific inputs and voyage variables.

  • AI-based cargo estimation for shipment attribution. AI fine-tunes cargo-on-board estimates to allocate emissions precisely at shipment level, tailored to voyage characteristics.

  • Comprehensive metrics and scopes. Results cover CO₂/CO₂e and other greehouse gasses. It also reports Well-to-Tank (WtT), Tank-to-Wake (TtW) and Well-to-Wake (WtW) emissions for both pre- and post-voyage reporting, in line with ISO 14083 and EU-taxonomy needs.

  • API delivery and plug-in integrations. Emissions are provided via API for logistics, sustainability and accounting platforms; the Coneksion® RAPIDS partnership offers a fully managed connectivity option with no changes to existing IT and automated, real-time retrieval.

  • Quality assurance and decision support. Estimates are validated against verified noon-report data and improved monthly; users can benchmark carriers/routes and even track ETS cost exposure versus predicted costs using the same high-fidelity outputs.

Closing Insights

OceanScore strengthens user confidence through its monthly “Scope 3 at Sea” report, which highlights the latest carbon-cost drivers and practical operational levers for managing emissions. Its recognition in Drewry’s independent ranking for accuracy further validates the robustness of Cargo FP’s voyage-level calculations, reassuring both forwarders and their customers. To support adoption, OceanScore regularly delivers workshops and webinars that help users navigate evolving regulations and share best practices in maritime carbon reporting.

In summary, Cargo FP serves as a practical bridge between maritime operations and corporate accounting, turning high-fidelity vessel data into decisions that withstand audits, satisfy reporting needs, and prepare users for evolving disclosure and pricing regimes.
