Regulatory Requirements

Lloyds Register: Marine

IEEC (International Energy efficiency Certificate)

Beyond contract date of 1 January 2013, every new ships subject of MARPOL Chapter 4, will be issued with an IEEC Format of IEEC is given in Appendix VIII of the MARPOL Annex VI.

Aspects of EEDI regulations

What do the regulations require? EEDI will be required for each ship EEDI to be calculated taking into account guidelines developed by the

Organisation

EEDI will form part of the requirement for ships International Energy Efficiency Certificate (IEEC) IEEC will be subject to initial survey in accordance with MARPOL Annex VI Chapter 2 as well as general or partial survey in case of major conversion IEEC will be valid for the life of the ship with exception of: Withdrawal from service Transfer of flag or major conversion

EEDI Verification Process

Lloyds Register: Marine

Main purpose of EEDI verification?

Ice class factor Shaft Motor Waste Heat Energy Saving

EEDI =
[gCO2/(tonne.nm)]

Main power: PME=0.75MCR Auxiliary power: PME >=10000KW PAE0.025Me250 PME < 10000KW PAE0.05Me

Capacity factor

Wave factor

Carbon factor

Capacity:
DWT: Bulk carriers,Containers, Tankers,Gas carriers,cargo ships,etc. GTR: Passenger Ship Attained Speed

Main purpose of verification is to ensure that the ship comply with with EEDI Regulations and relevant Guidelines

Lloyds Register: Marine

EEDI Verification

Two-stage verification process:

Preverification Final Verification Design stage (to demonstrate estimate of the EEDI prior to construction) At commissioning trial (to validate the EEDI and compliance before delivery)

Details of verification method is given in the IMO MEPC.1/Circ.682.

Pre-Verification
Estimating the EEDI value:

Based on model tank testing and design power requirements Likely acceptance of computational methods for extrapolations, etc Technical justification to be provided where tank test for an individual ship is omitted (e.g. availability of the results of tank tests for ships of the same/similar type) Initial calculation by shipyard within an EEDI Technical File (EEDI-TF) Submission of EEDI-TF supported by documentary evidence (machinery certificates, model test speed/power estimation etc.) Pre-verification report provided by RO (Recognised Organisation)

Lloyds Register: Marine

Final Verification
Demonstrating compliance to Regulations:

Purpose to verify attained EEDI value for each ship Based on commissioning trial tests Fully complete the relevant Record of Construction for the vessel. Verification data requirement:

EEDI Technical File (inclusive of calculated EEDI Sea trial data (report) Basic design or tank test data Additional support information EEDI Technical File is expected to have all of the data needed for EEDI calculations

Major Aspects of Verification

Lloyds Register: Marine

Major aspects of verification

Verification of speed-power curve for Vref: Tank test observation and scaling methods Speed trial observation Extrapolation method from trial conditions to EEDI conditions CFD prediction and other software tools assurances Verification of energy saving technologies Availability factors (feff) Power levels. Verification of various correction factors: Ice-class (fj) Weather factor (fw) Capacity factor (fi)

Lloyds Register: Marine

Speed Trials
Considerations:

Purpose is to validate Vref at 75% MCR! Can be part of normal sea trials procedure Required for each ship, not just lead ship Speed / power analysis should be acceptable to IMO requirements:

Sea conditions measured to ISO15016:2002 or equivalent; Ship speed measured to ISO15016:2002 or equivalent and at

more than two points of which range includes the 75% of MCR power;

Development of power curves should account for effects of wind, tide and waves to ISO15016:2002 or equivalent.

Deriving Speed/Power data: ISO Method

IMO recommended methods:

ISO 15016:2002 - Guidelines for the assessment of speed and power performance by analysis of speed trial data. Document describes conduct of the trial, parameters to be measured (wind speed, sea state, depth, current); and how they are corrected:

Step 1: evaluation of acquired trial data. Step 2: correction of ship's performance for resistance increase. Step 3: correction of ship's performance for current. Step 4: correction of ship's performance for air resistance. Step 5: correction of ship's performance for shallow water. Step 6: final ship's performance

Lloyds Register: Marine

Deriving Speed/Power data: Equivalent methods

IMO Guidelines allows use of equivalent methods as against ISO 15016:2002:

What are these methods?

STA: Ship Trial Analysis? Shipyard or tank test facilities own developed methods? Others?

How to deal with equivalent methods?

Verifying EEDI Industry Concerns

Will all ROs perform verification to the same, consistent basis? What about differences between yard values and RO values? What about the differences of approach by different shipyards and model tank test facilities. Prior to coming into force and for all existing vessels: How a voluntary EEDI should be verified?
