BACKGROUND Climate Change/GHG Emissions reductions – HIGH level political item
Kyoto Protocol – Regulatory frame work through UNFCCC – Parties commit to emissions reductions targets:
• primarily through national measures . . . . . . also • through MBM
Aviation & Shipping not included due to their international characterUNFCCC agreed measures are taken through ICAO and IMO, respectively
ICAO decision: to suggest an ETS for aviation by 2016 with enforcement in 2020
IMO decisions: mandatory EEDI for new buildings & SEEMP for all ships
SEEMP does not set a target for GHG emissions reduction of ship in operationsRegulators want a targetIMO considered developing MBMs for shipping but no agreement in sight
Alternative – Amendments to MARPOL Annex VI to assess the energy efficiency of ships in operation

Applicability
All ships > 5,000 GRT calling to EU ports
Reporting CO2 emissions when ships travel: • between EU ports, • an incoming voyage from an non-EU to an EU port• an outgoing voyage from an EU port to a non-EU port
Data reported should assist to monitor the ship’s average energy efficiency at least with the following criteria:
Total annual CO2 emissions / total annual distance travelled
Total annual CO2 emissions / total annual transport work(transport work = total annual distance x total annual cargo)
EU PROPOSED REGULATION on MRV
Leading the way; making a difference
Ships (DOC holder) provides an annual emissions ReportReporting in accordance with a Ship Monitoring Plan approved by an accredited “Verifier”The proposed rule has provisions with obligations for “verifiers”Verifiers check that reporting is in conformity with the Monitoring Plan and check “credibility” of the reported dataIf verification is successful, the verifier will then issue a Document of Compliance to the CompanyEU Member States requested to consider penalties for ships which do not comply with the reporting, including “expulsion”
EU PROPOSED REGULATION on MRV
Leading the way; making a difference
EU PROPOSED REGULATION on MRV
Options to calculate the fuel consumption: (A) use of BDN and periodic stock takes of fuel tanks; (B) onboard monitoring of bunker tanks, (C) flow meters for applicable combustion processes and (D) direct emissions measurement
Dates for implementation:1st July 2015 – enter into force
31st August 2017 – companies should prepare and submit to “verifiers” Monitoring Plan
1st January 2018 – starts first annual reporting period
2019 and after – by 30th April each year, companies shall submit a verified emissions report to the EU Commission and to the Flag State
– by 30th June each year, the EU Commission will make the emissions reported by ships publicly available

INTERTANKO COUNCIL DECISION
INTERTANKO supports the MRV concept in principle collection of fuel consumption data to measure CO2
emissions from ships and it should continue investigations and assessments of the best possible model for oil and chemical tanker operations
REVISED STATEMENT
INTERTANKO supports the MRV concept in principle collection of fuel consumption data to measure CO2
emissions from ships and it should will continue investigations and assessments of the best possible model for oil and chemical tanker operations [with an objective of positively influencing any regulatory decisions on the matter].
Leading the way; making a difference
The Council agreed that ship’s efficiency is the best method of measuring performance improvement, with fuel consumption being the critical parameter
The definition of ship’s efficiency should, in a broader sense, be weighted and clarified against the term of transportation efficiency
For internal use only, initiate data collection from all members on the annual fuel consumption data (years 2010, 2011 and 2012) using the cumulative data on BDNs
INTERTANKO COUNCIL DECISION
Leading the way; making a difference
INTERTANKO JOINT WORKING GROUP ACTIVITY
Provide comments to the EU proposed MRV regulation & Develop a Monitoring Plan for tankers (done)
Promote these with the EU Commission, Parliament and Council (ongoing)
Continue to collect data from Members & find best approach to assess tankers’ fuel efficiency (ongoing)
Use data collected to assess various regulatory proposals & define “ship’s efficiency” vs “transportation efficiency”, removing from energy efficiency assessment the influence of other stakeholders (importers, charterers, cargo owners, etc.) (ongoing)

VIEWS BY OTHER ASSOCIATIONS
ICS submission inviting IMO to:- consider a 3-phase approach regulation:
• data collection• possible development of a Pilot Phase of Additional
Measures to Facilitate Efficiency• possible implementation Phase of Additional Measures
to facilitate Efficiency- adopt phase I, data collection ASAP but refrain for
planning on how data should be processed- data to be collected: fuel consumption and total distance
(no cargo, no data on the length of ballast voyages )- collecting and interpretation of “cargo data” is
complicated and may slow down initial amendments to MARPOL Annex VI for data collection
- verification of data by PSC
Leading the way; making a difference
ICS suggests mandatory data collection without any consideration on how data would possibly be used; INTERTANKO Council decided the WG gives such consideration and establish how best would data collection be shaped for its possible further use
ICS suggests collection of fuel consumption and total distance onlyINTERTANKO WG agreed to collect data such as “total cargo”, “total laden voyages” (distance and time), “total ballast voyages” (distance and time) in order to define “ship efficiency”
ICS indicates PSC as the only verifierINTERTANKO suggested that Flag States should be the verifier
DIFFERENCES
Leading the way; making a difference
Council is invited to:(a) decide if INTERTANKO should maintain the view that
tanker’s efficiency is the best method of measuring performance improvement (which will include cargo)
(b) endorse further work on an attempt to segregate “ship’s efficiency” from “transportation efficiency” (the Council will make a decision on whether or not to use such a model, when and if appropriate)(c) consider that each Council Member company reports data to the Secretariat(d) delegate Executive Committee to:
(i) further coordinate the activity (ii) at its next meeting, review the INTERTANKO position for MEPC 66 on this matter

Leading the way; making a difference
INTERTANKO possible model
Two-tier approach for assessing tanker fuel efficiency. For example:- The overall indicator reflecting the “transportation efficiency”; e.g. EEOI
- An additional Energy Efficiency Tanker Indicator (EETI) indicating the ship’s technical efficiency considering only parameters under the ship owners’ control
EETI might enable a transparent performance benchmarking
If tankers fails to met the “target EEOI value”, it might prove compliance though the EETI.
EETI can be derived from EEOI and represents the carbon intensity of a ship in a reference condition
The EEOI formula can be mathematically expressed and split into : - a technical factor and - a logistics factor
Leading the way; making a difference
INTERTANKO possible model
The technical factor relates the fuel consumption (as reported in the calculation of the EEOI) with the ship’s design parameters, i.e. full load (dwt) and the designed speed (Vdes) The logistics factor can be analysed into three elements:
1. the “cargo utilisation” (actual cargo/over maximum cargo capacity mL/dwt), 2. the “distance utilisation”(distance covered in laden condition versus the
total distance [dL/(dL + dB)] 3. the “speed utilisation” (actual average speed for the period used to
calculate the EEOI/ design speed or Vop/Vdes)
For the calculation of the EETI it is necessary to apply a correction for the fuel consumption, which has to be related to the design speed. Therefore a fuel consumption correction factor “fss” is used (which can be derived from S-P curves) but for most ships is adequate to assume: fss =(Vdes/ Vop)^3
By applying all above factors to the EEOI, then the EETI is calculated as a “normalized” figure of the EEOI, somehow “neutralizing” the influence of commercial parameters in the logistics factor

FURTHER ISSUES TO ADDRESS:• How to determine the “base line” from which a target mandatory value
can be established (e.g. could EEOI calculated for the operational condition at designed speed and fully loaded be the base line?)
• if so, the “target EEOI” mandatory curve could probably be decided by imposing a reduction from the base line by a certain percentage; such a percentage may be assessed by using the data collected under MRV
• if ship is not compliant with the “target EEOI”, how should EETI value be used as a secondary compliance indicator, etc.?
There were other various suggestions such as trying to limit the ship’s cargo capacity utilisation by using ship’s displacement. There also questions whether data collected would indicate that ships are properly used and using EEOI only would be a simpler approach
