What is the Seemp?

What is the Seemp?

The Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) is an operational measure that establishes a mechanism to improve the energy efficiency of a ship in a cost-effective manner.

What is EEDI shipping?

Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI), formulated for new ships, is an index that estimates grams of CO2 per transport work (g of CO2 per tonne-mile). It can be expressed as the ratio of “environmental cost” divided by “Benefit for Society”.

What is attained and required EEDI?

The attained EEDI is the actual calculated and verified EEDI value for an individual ship based on the data in the EEDI technical file. The attained EEDi must be below the ‘Required EEDI’ limit prescribed in MARPOL. CO2 emission is computed from the fuel consumption taking into account the carbon content of the fuel.

What is EEXI and EEDI?

The EEXI is like its predecessor, the Energy Efficient Design Index (EEDI)—in effect since 2013—but applied to existing ships outside EEDI regulations. It specifically targets vessels above 400 GT that fall under MARPOL Annex VI. To set CO2 emissions standards, the EEXI uses the same methodology as the EEDI.

Who are the MEPC?

The Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) addresses environmental issues under IMO’s remit.

What is Seemp part1?

MARPOL Annex VI requires that All ships of 400 GT and above shall be equipped with a Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) Part I. Scope of this plan is to provide guidance on shipboard procedures and practices aimed at improving the energy efficiency and conservation.

What is Seemp in ship?

Ship energy efficiency management plan (SEEMP) is a ship specific plan that provides a mechanism to improve the energy efficiency of a ship in a cost-effective manner. SEEMP has been made mandatory for all ships as per Marpol Annex 4, regulation 22.

What does EEXI mean?

Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI)

What is MEPC and why it is needed?

The MEPC approved draft new mandatory regulations to cut the carbon intensity of existing ships. This builds on current mandatory energy efficiency requirements to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions from shipping.

What is the meaning of Marpol?

The International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) is the main international convention covering prevention of pollution of the marine environment by ships from operational or accidental causes. The MARPOL Convention was adopted on 2 November 1973 at IMO.

What is Seemp Part II?

The SEEMP Part II has 9 sections: Ship particulars. Record of revision of fuel oil consumption data collection plan. Ship engines and other fuel oil consumers and fuel oil types used. Processes that will be used to report the data to the Administration.

WHO issues Seemp?

A sample form of the SEEMP can be found in “IMO Resolution MEPC. 213(63) – 2012 Guidelines for the development of a Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan”. The ship owner is obliged to develop a SEEMP taking into account the guidelines adopted by the International Maritime Organisation.

When to use EEDI and seemp on ships?

The SEEMP urges the ship owner and operator at each stage of the plan to consider new technologies and practices when seeking to optimise the performance of a ship. Guidelines for calculation of reference lines for use with the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI), resolution MEPC.215 (63) .

What do you need to know about the EEDI?

The EEDI requires a minimum energy efficiency level per capacity mile (e.g. tonne mile) for different ship type and size segments.

Is the EEDI equivalent to a threshold value?

Under the regulations, ships are required to meet a minimum energy efficiency require­ ment – in other words, their EEDI must be equivalent to or less than a threshold value. Who is affected? The EEDI does not apply to all ships. Initially, it targets the vessels responsible for the most emissions. In its

What does the energy efficiency index ( eedi ) mean?

Index (EEDI), which requires new ships to meet a certain level of energy efficiency from the outset. Another man­ datory scheme, the Ship Energy Efficiency Manage­ ment Plan (SEEMP), which governs operations, applies to all ships. Financial incentives In addition, market­based measures such as levies
