Inland Navigation

‘Sailing green’ is high on the list of priorities of the inland waterway transportation sector. Not just to meet European directives, (future) national legislation and local environmental measures, but also because key market parties and bodies expect it, port companies encourage it, and public opinion demands it!

The most recent sustainability standards

'Large market parties such as Shell, IKEA and Heineken have a strict sustainability policy. They only work with companies that meet the most recent sustainability standards. Ships that have taken measures to reduce their emissions receive an award advantage. But local governments are also becoming stricter. We are happy to use our expertise to provide your inland vessel with a system that reduces the NOx to almost zero. Together we are ready for a green future!'

Customisation

In May 2022, the Dutch government announced that the ‘particulate matter’ (or ‘DPF’ part of emissions after treatment) would form an important part of the allowance regarding compensation for STAGE-V-related investments, which are currently under consideration by parliament.

That means that ‘DPF’ can also be considered to be part of your financial allowance, alongside the existing NOx-related financial allowance. Xeamos is proud to offer our customers the opportunity to handle the entire STAGE-V administrational procedure for you, encompassing all of the ins and outs of the allowance appeal. In this way, we save you from needing to take part in this frequently time-consuming administrative procedure – and that’s one less thing for you to worry about.

Engineering

Xeamos is an engineering firm and all our systems are developed and tested in-house. We also offer expertise in areas such as sound attenuation and soot filter and SCR technology, combining everything within a single system. Models that have not been used before are meticulously checked by our engineers using dedicated software to ensure they function optimally. If required, we can calculate the pressure drop of the entire exhaust system, and make thermal and/or power calculations. We are fully up to speed with the latest regulations related to emissions, safety and more, and can provide you with a system that offers a guaranteed performance and lifespan.

Installation and check

We believe that it is important that our systems are integrated correctly. We therefore always ensure that the shipyard or yard has all the documentation required in advance. We will also check the installation work on site.

Furthermore, during commissioning, we will perform different tests using professional measuring equipment. As a result, you will be able to prove that you meet all emission standards - not only on paper but also in practice.

Our USP's

• Standard and customised solutions for emission reduction
• Precisely calculated and then tested in practice
• Robust construction and long service life
• Lower maintenance costs and a lower TCO

Low TCO

The Xeamos systems have a reputation in the market for their sound and robust design and long service life.

As a shipping entrepreneur, this means that you benefit from low maintenance costs and a low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), as well as benefiting from the design choices we have made.
