IMO published its Fourth Green House Gas Study which shows a 9.6% increase in shipping emissions, mostly due to the continuous increase of global maritime trade. The study estimates that shipping emitted 1,056 million tons of CO2 in 2018, compared to 977 tonnes in 2012. This amount accounts for about 2.89% of the total global CO2 emissions in that year.

On 19 March 2021, Tsavliris S/T “HERMES” (BHP 2,725 – BP 41) salved and towed (gratis) the Hellenic Coast Guard antipollution patrol boat “417” in Vatika Bay, Neapolis, Peloponnese. The vessel became disabled in strong winds.

On 12 March 2021, the Tsavliris S/T "HERMES" departed from her Patras salvage station to assist the Passenger Cruise Ship "MSC LIRICA" (GT 65,591 - DWT 6,563), which caught fire at Corfu Port.

Tsavliris is officially a signatory to the "Neptune Declaration" on Seafarer Wellbeing and Crew Change in a worldwide call to end the unprecedented crew change crisis caused by Covid-19. The Neptune Declaration is an encouraging step forward, bringing together leading industry leaders who are committed to taking action.

The Kamsarmax Bulk Carrier "MASTER" (GT 44,619 - DWT 81,588), fully laden with soya beans, en route from Kalama Port, Portland, USA, to Jingtang, China, began running out of fuel due to bad weather during her westerly transpacific crossing.
Tsavliris towed the vessel to Muroran, Japan, arriving safely on 9 February 2021.
