Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

Burning fuel releases CO2

Red is global average temperature

Blue is atmospheric CO2

As atmospheric CO2 increased at the beginning of the 20th Century, we see an associated increase in global average temperature.

Greenhouse Gases such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) are trapping more heat from the sun causing global warming.

Heat is trapped and starts to heat up Earths surface

Rising global temperature is causing:

Changes to weather patterns Melting of polar ice caps causing sea level rises leading to coastal flooding Those most likely to be affected will be people in the worlds poorest countries Drought Crop failures

Fuel Price Rises

Residual range in 2050: $1008 - $1416

Distillate range in 2050:

$1935 - $2719

Fuel prices will continue to rise as resources become more scarce Therefore, we must operate in the most efficient way to conserve fuel.

SEEMP
The purpose of the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) is to establish a mechanism for a company and/or a ship to improve the energy efficiency of a ships operation. Fuel-efficient operations can include:

Weather routing Ship speed control Hull and propeller Fouling control Engine performance management Boiler performance management Onboard bunker management Power generation Bunker heating Draft and trim optimisation Crew familiarisation and training Investment into new technology

How to use the SEEMP

The SEEMP is a live document, that once onboard the vessel should be discussed regularly during toolbox meetings and monthly SQSE meetings.
Planning

Act

Do

Check

The crew should be made aware and reminded of how their actions can affect the consumption of fuel onboard. For example leaving lights on or forgetting to turn off pumps or fans. Crew involvement and implementation of the SEEMP and their feedback is the most important aspect for making the SEEMP an effective tool.

Crews role and responsibilities

Direct Influence Read and understand the points listed in the SEEMP.

Operate the vessel efficiently & safely

Remember to turn off equipment and lights when not in use. Discuss vessels performance in the SQSE monthly meeting and areas of improvement for next month.

Indirect Influence
Discuss further improvements that can be made to your vessels SEEMP and inform the office of your ideas.

If approved by the office these will be added to the SEEMP to be implemented onboard.

Small changes BIG Differences

Figures used are from the 13,100 TEU ships H.F.O Purifier + supply pump: 75.8kg fuel per day

E/R Ventilation fan: 283.3kg fuel per day

Accommodation lighting: 105.4kg fuel per day Deck Flood lighting: 70.3kg fuel per day Cargo hold lighting: 70.3kg fuel per day Ballast pump: 893.6kg fuel per day Bow thruster hydraulic pump: 22.2kg fuel per day At sea could be possible to save up to an estimated 500kg of fuel per day just by turning off equipment that will not effect the safety of the vessel in it current state of operation. Thats approx. $400 per day or 1.6T of CO2.
* All calculations are based on maximum load multiplied by the motors load factor taken from the electric load analysis multiplied by the SFOC of the main generator at +/- 5% at MCR at shop trial conditions for a 24 hour day

Port operations
Ideas for areas of improvement when the vessel is in port Figures used are from the 13,100 TEU Maersk ships M/E L.O Pump: 1,118.6kg fuel per day

E/R Ventilation fan: 283.3kg fuel per day x 2 (4 fans installed onboard. Possible to operate with only 2 fans during port) Steering gear: 578kg fuel per day H.F.O Purifier + supply pump: 75.8kg fuel per day Bow thruster hydraulic pump: 22.2kg fuel per day Reduce F.O Tank heating Minimise boiler use Start Aux. S.W cooling pump instead of Main S.W Cooling pump if installed on board Make sure lighting is not left on in crew and officer recreational areas. Heat the main engine using the auxiliary generators if ship is fitted with a central cooling water systems.
In port could be possible to save an estimated 2,400kg of fuel per day just by turning off non essential equipment. Thats around $1,500 per day

Accommodation savings Figures used are from the 13,100 TEU Maersk ships
Galley Ovens: If turned off for 10hrs during the evenings when the galley is out of use could save 62.2kg of fuel per day which is a yearly saving of 22,703kg of fuel Laundry Equipment: If used daily by 25% of the crew for light loads would use 50kg of fuel based on a 1hr washing cycle. Wait till you have a full load or share with another crew member. This could reduce fuel consumption to 25kg per day which is a yearly saving of 9,125kg of fuel

Cabin and crew spaces lighting: Reducing the accommodation lighting consumption by 10% by turning of the lights in your cabin when they are empty and in areas that are not being used, its possible to reduce fuel consumption by 8.6kg per day which would be a yearly saving of 3,139kg of fuel
Air Conditioning plant: uses 246.4kg of fuel in a day if the load on the plant is reduced by 10% by correct adjustments this could achieve a yearly saving of 8,993.6kg of fuel With this taken into account (for this vessel) it would be an estimated yearly saving of 44,000 kg (137 T CO2) which would be around $26,400.

EEOI
(Energy Efficiency Operational Index)
Zodiac will start to monitor the efficiency of the ships using EEOI measured in grams of CO2 emitted per tonne of cargo moved. This will be done using the new VT04 Ship Efficiency jZORS form STILL IN DEVELOPMENT.

Zodiac will report performance figures based on the amount of CO2 emitted for moving cargo rather than the total fuel consumed.
By using EEOI calculations we can compare our performance internally to see over and under performing ships and also with other companies operating similar ships. For this reason it is important that daily information entered into the form is accurate and truthful as the data will be used in our yearly Environmental Report.

EEOI
The graphs show why reporting on total fuel bunkered and CO2 emitted is not a good indicator for the companies environmental performance. As the fleet grows in numbers (and tonnage) we bunker more fuel and emit more CO2. EEOI gives the actual performance factoring in the cargo carrying capacity.

Graphs are taken from the Zodiac Maritime environmental and safety report 2011

Summary
The SEEMP will only make a difference if the crew engage with trying to improve the efficiency of the vessel. The Environmental Officer will have responsibility for understanding the document and training/motivating fellow crew. Reduce use of any equipment that does not need to be running.

Remember to turn off all lights and equipment when not in use.
When software becomes available use the EEOI as a tool to help monitor the efficiency of the vessel. With regards to the environment and the constant rising prices of fuel it is imperative that we do all we can as a company to make the biggest difference we possibly can. Think of different ways that could make a difference, even the small thing add up to make BIG differences. Share ideas and send comments and feedback to London HQ.
