Octo and the major ports as a reference
Brazilian ports report their environmental programs to the Ministry of Ports and Airports through the Sustainability Seal, and ANTAQ publishes the IDA ranking. Ports abroad publish climate plans, shore power programs and incentives. The names appear here as a public reference, with the source from the port itself or the regulator; none of them is an Octo client. The Seal reports are self-reported.
Four possible deliverables. The target and the environmental program remain your port authority's.
Can gather, each period, data from lessees and service providers in one place, with the document attached: this is the difficulty one port authority reported.
Deliverable: periodic collection with outstanding items by companyCan build the indicator dashboard with target, base year and the evidence for each number, as the published plans call for.
Deliverable: dashboard for the team to reviewCan check which environmental incentives the port or the shipowner qualify for, requirement against regulation, and keep the proof of each discount granted.
Deliverable: requirements table with the proofCan organize the evidence for what the team will report to the MPor Seal, linking each answer to its source document.
Deliverable: answers with the document for each oneThe same Octo cycle, applied to this topic. Each arm has a narrow role; the people who approve and sign are on your team.
What the port authority has already published or reported, and on what basis.
Each target with the number that measures it and the source of that number.
Data from lessees and service providers stays in the environment the team approves.
Spreadsheet, database or dashboard, matching how the team already works.
Targets, numbers, evidence and outstanding items.
The environmental team reviews before it counts.
The dashboard goes wherever the team says.
Which document from each port was used, and on what date.
Octo does not audit, certify or compare ports on its own. The targets and results belong to each port and to whoever verifies them.
What each port has published or reported, with the source. Reports to the MPor Seal are self-reported.
| Port | What it publishes | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Santos | Bronze Seal, audited data: no; shore power for tugboats | Report to MPor, September 30, 2025 |
| Suape | Diamond Seal, audited data: yes; monthly GHG; Suape Carbon Neutral 2038 Program | Report to MPor, 2025 |
| Portos do Paraná | Silver Seal, audited data: yes; target of 100% certified renewable energy | Report to MPor, 2025 |
| Rio de Janeiro | List of reference environmental legislation | Rio port authority |
| Rotterdam | Climate neutrality by 2050; discounts for environmental performance | Climate Transition Plan, Dec. 2025 |
| Antwerp-Bruges | Climate neutrality target by 2050 | Institutional document, 2021-2022 |
| Hamburg | Climate-neutral port by 2040; shore power | Hamburg Port Authority |
| Singapore | Decarbonization blueprint and green incentives | Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore |
Three steps. Each one only makes sense once the previous one has shown results on your team.
A proposal, not a promise
Octo gathers what your port authority has already published and reported, with the source.
Data from lessees and service providers now arrives in one place.
Targets and evidence are tracked every period.
Each point below has a source published by the responsible agency or by the port authority cited. Reports to the MPor Seal are self-reported. The sources are in the next section.
10
points with a published source, each with its reference alongside.
Octo prepares everything, but does not sign. The document of record stays with whoever is accountable for it.
Gathers, calculates, organizes and produces the documents: spreadsheets, reports, dashboards and drafts.
Deliverable: material ready for reviewThe licensed professional reviews what Octo delivered before signing. If something doesn't add up, it goes back to Octo with the correction.
Step: review by whoever signsOcto does not sign. Designs, technical reports, ART/RRT, accountability reports and any official document are still signed by the licensed professional at the company or agency: here, the professional of record and the port authority.
Signature: professional of record and port authoritySustainability Seal reports from the Ministry of Ports and Airports, ANTAQ's 2024 Management Report, the São Paulo state government and documents published by the ports themselves. Accessed October 31, 2026.
The assessment starts with what your port authority has already published and reported, without changing anything. You get a proposal for what can be organized and decide with it in hand.
