Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan

Reference

MSC.203(62) New chapter 4 to MARPOL Annex VI Reg.22

Entry into force

01/01/2013 (new ships) by the first IAPP intermediate or renewal

survey, whichever is first, on or after 01/01/2013 for existing ships

Applicable to

all new & existing ships 400gt

The SEEMP is a ship environmental performance management tool :

It should be developed by the owner in accordance with the IMO Guidelines*

adopted at MEPC 63 in March 2012 (actually as of MEPC.1/ Circ.683).

There are four steps to consider:

Planning
which determines the status of ship energy
usage and the expected improvements of ship
energy efficiency

Self Evaluation & Improvement

to evaluate the effectiveness of the planned
measures and of their implementation and to
improve the SEEMP

Implementation
which includes the development of the
procedures for energy management and the
definition of the tasks to be performed

Monitoring & Measurement

which provides a quantitative indicator of the
ship energy effiency

* Resolution MEPC.213(63) 2012 Guidelines for the Development of a SEEMP, Adopted on 2 March 2012.

Example & Content of a SEEMP

A SEEMP should contain the following information

International Energy Efficiency Certificate (IEEC)

SEEMP Review - International Energy Efficiency Statement of Compliance
Owner can request BV to carry out a

SEEMP review and issue an IEE SoC

The IEE SoC is an evidence that the

SEEMP has been developed taking into

account guidelines adopted by the
Organization, in compliance with IMO
MEPC.203(62) Regulation 22.2.

The IEE SoC will allow any ship above 400

GT to obtain the IEE Certificate as soon as

the required verification survey on-board
has been completed, when the
amendments to MARPOL VI will apply to
the vessel

Identifying potential fuel savings

How to go beyond the statutory requirements

Voluntary approval of the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan

of individual ships:

The Owner provides the SEEMP for initial review and approval, as well
as future revisions of the plan. The Owner will also send additional
documents for information.
It is proposed to evaluate the different possible measures initially
suggested by the Owner and the order of magnitude of the possible
gains by building an energy flow model of the ship with a simulation
tool and using it to simulate the effect of the proposed measures in
operating conditions defined by the Owner. It is also checked that the
SEEMP is effectively implemented onboard the ships.

Methodology an holistic approach

Establishing an Energy Audits

Install instrumentation on fuel flow
and shaft line power

Use of Energy simulating tools

Use of CFD calculations tools

Holistic approach: Use of Energy

Management System standard

Energy Audit
1. Definition of data to be measured for the energy performance assessment
* The data are to include at least the input parameters used to calculate the performance indicators

used within the scope of the SEEMP

* The data collected/measured should include at least the following over a 6-month period
fuel consumption per fuel type (HFO, DO) / fuel quality (lower heating value, density) of the fuel

consumed / cargo transported and distance (including under ballast)

2. List of fuel consumers on-board : Main engine / propulsion, Aux. engines, Aux. Boilers
3. List of major electrical power consumers : rotating machinery, lighting system
4. List of steam consumers
5. Procedures and devices to measure the data
Overall fuel/electrical power/steam consumption / fuel/electrical power consumption/steam per

consumer or per consumers category, if measured / measuring devices and procedures to calibrate
the devices / measurement periodicity / record-keeping procedures / person responsible for measuring
and keeping records

Verification on-board by a Surveyor

Sampling verification that the procedures to measure the data are properly implemented and that the

measuring devices are properly maintained and/or calibrated.

Verification that the Energy Performance Indicators are calculated from the collected data over the last

6 months of the ships operations to assess the current energy performance status.
