1 Maritime policies and regulations IMO s work for sustainable shipping Green Marine - Greentech May to 1 June 2017 Dr. H. Deggim Senior Deputy Director, International Maritime Organization (IMO)

2 IMO Basic facts UN specialized agency: global standard-setting authority for safety, security and environmental performance of international shipping Headquarters in London 172 Member States and 3 Associate Members 77 NGOs and 65 IGOs Annual budget 30+ million Secretariat staff of about 250, more than 50 nationalities Page 2 2

3 Technical work of IMO Environmental issues Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) IMO's senior technical body on all marine pollution related matters, aided in its work by a number of IMO's Sub-Committees. Sub-Committee on Pollution Prevention and Response (PPR) Prevention and control of pollution of the marine environment, including air pollution; evaluation of safety and pollution hazards of liquid substances in bulk transported by ships; control and management of harmful aquatic organisms in ships' ballast water and sediments, and biofouling; recycling of ships; and pollution preparedness, response and cooperation for oil and hazardous and noxious substances. Sub-Committees under MEPC and MSC Sub-Committee on Implementation of IMO Instruments (III) Sub-Committee on Carriage of Cargoes and Containers (CCC) Page 3 3

4 Presentation topics IMO s current work on environmental issues Ballast water management Energy efficiency of ships Reduction of GHG emissions Data collection system for fuel oil consumption Global sulphur cap implementation Technical cooperation projects Main issues at MEPC 71 NGOs and IGOs at IMO Page 4 4

5 BWM Convention Basic facts Page 5 5 adopted on 13 Feb 2004 will enter into force on 8 Sep 2017 more than 60 BWMS type-approved by Administrations MEPC concluded sufficient technologies are available for all ship types Roadmap for implementation agreed non-penalization of early movers, i.e. no need to replace BWMS type approved in accordance with old Guidelines (G8) Non-penalization of early movers agreed

6 Energy efficiency of ships EEDI and SEEMP MARPOL Annex VI: Chapter 3: Requirements for control of emissions from ships Chapter 4: Regulations on energy efficiency of ships (entered into force on 1 January 2013) Mandatory under chapter 4: EEDI Energy Efficiency Design Index SEEMP Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan IEE (International Energy Efficiency Certificate) Amendments to the 2013 Interim guidelines for determining minimum propulsion power to maintain the manoeuvrability of ships in adverse conditions (resolution MEPC.232(65)) adopted Page 6 6

7 GHG emissions from ships Third IMO GHG Study 2014 Study found that shipping, in total, accounted for approximately 3.1% of annual global CO 2 emissions for the period For international shipping, the CO 2 estimate dropped from 2.8% in 2007 to 2.2% in Year Global CO 2 Total shipping % of global International shipping % of global ,409 1, % % ,204 1, % % , % % , % % ,723 1, % % , % % Average 33,273 1, % % Page 7 7

8 GHG emissions from ships Shipping CO 2 emissions are projected to increase by 50% to 250% in the period to 2050, despite fleet average efficiency improvements of about 40% +250% +160% Four BAU Scenarios +100% +50% Page 8 8 Ref: Third IMO GHG Study 2014

9 GHG emissions from ships Roadmap agreed at MEPC 70 Roadmap for developing a comprehensive IMO strategy on reduction of GHG emissions from ships approved at MEPC 70 Foresees initial IMO strategy to be adopted in 2018 and revised in 2023 based on data from Ship Fuel Oil Consumption Database Fourth IMO GHG Study to be completed in 2020 and further studies every 5 years Intersessional Working Group to meet from 26 to 30 July 2017 (week before MEPC 71) to consider how to progress work on reduction of GHG emissions from ships Page 9 9

10 GHG emissions from ships Intersessional Working Group (July 2017) Levels of ambition and guiding principles for the strategy Emissions scenarios Assessment of projected future demand for shipping Parameters/indicators on energy efficiency of ships Emission reduction opportunities, including alternative fuels Costs and benefits Capacity building and technical cooperation Barriers to emissions reductions and how to overcome them Priority areas for R&D, including in relation to technology Impact of EEDI Page 10 10

11 Fuel oil consumption data collection Data collection system adopted at MEPC 70 Page step approach Step 1 Data collection Step 2 Data analysis Step 3 Decision-making on what further measures, if any, are required MARPOL Annex VI New regulation 22A Adopted at MEPC 70, expected to enter into force 1 March 2018 Ships 5,000 GT required to submit to their Administration annual reports on fuel oil consumption and transport work parameters Administrations to submit aggregated data to IMO for inclusion in anonymised IMO Ship Fuel Oil Consumption Database first data calendar year beginning 1 January 2019

12 Fuel oil consumption data collection Appendix IX of MARPOL Annex VI Information to be submitted to IMO Ship Fuel Oil Consumption Database IMO number Calendar year covered Technical characteristics of ship (type, GT, NT, DWT, power output (rated power)) EEDI (if applicable) Ice class Fuel oil consumption (by fuel oil type, in metric tonnes and methods used for collecting fuel oil consumption data) Distance travelled (over ground), hours underway Page 12 12

13 Fuel oil consumption data collection Data collection process Ship Submits data to flag State or RO in accordance with regulation 22A of MARPOL Annex VI Flag Administration Aggregates data and submits to IMO Secretariat (database) Issues to the ship Statement of Compliance IMO Secretariat Aggregates all data submitted in IMO Ship Fuel Oil Consumption Database Provides annual summary report to MEPC Database Data will be anonymised so individual ships cannot be identified Access to anonymized data restricted to Parties to Annex VI Page 13 13

14 Fuel oil consumption data collection Correspondence group established at MEPC 70 to: finalize draft guidelines for Administration data verification procedures, in accordance with regulation 22A.7 of MARPOL Annex VI further develop draft guidelines for development and management of IMO Ship Fuel Oil Consumption Database, including means to keep ships anonymised and to ensure completeness of database develop guidance to address non-party ships submitting data to the Database report to MEPC 71 (July 2017) Page 14 14

15 Sulphur content of fuel oil MARPOL Annex VI regulation 14 Regulation The sulphur content of any fuel oil used on board ships shall not exceed the following limits: % m/m prior to 1 January 2012; % m/m on and after 1 January 2012; and % m/m on and after 1 January Regulation A review of the standard set forth in paragraph 1.3 of this regulation shall be completed by 2018 to determine the availability of fuel oil to comply with the fuel oil standard set forth in that paragraph Page 15 15

16 Sulphur content of fuel oil Timeline Fuel oil % sulphur Review completed Page Global 0.50 ECA Time

17 Sulphur content of fuel oil Emission Control Areas (ECAs) North Sea and Baltic Sea ECA North American ECA Step 1 Data collection Step 2 Data analysis Page Step 3 Decision-making on what further measures, if any, are required United States Caribbean Sea ECA

18 Sulphur content of fuel oil Final decision of MEPC 70 Implementation date confirmed MEPC 70 approved CE Delft assessment and confirmed implementation date of 1 Jan 2020 for global 0.5% m/m sulphur cap. Resolution MEPC.280(70) adopted MEPC 70 adopted resolution MEPC.280(70) on Effective date of implementation of the fuel oil standard in regulation of MARPOL Annex VI. PPR 4 considered implementation issues PPR 4, as instructed by MEPC 70, considered concerns expressed regarding implementation (MEPC 70/5/2 and comments made in plenary) and drafted justification and scope for new output on what additional measures may be developed to promote consistent implementation of 0.50% global sulphur limit, for approval by MEPC 71. Work will start at PPR 5 in February Page 18 18

19 Sulphur content of fuel oil Outcome of PPR 4 Agreed new output on consistent implementation of regulation of MARPOL Annex VI, for approval by MEPC 71 Scope of the work, to be completed at PPR 5 and PPR 6 in 2018 and 2019, expected to include: - preparatory and transitional issues - impact on fuel and machinery systems - verification issues, control mechanisms and necessary actions to ensure compliance and consistent implementation - standardized system for reporting non-availability of compliant fuel oil - assessing sulphur content of delivered fuel oil for verification - ISO to consider framework of ISO 8217 standard for fuels supplied on a world-wide basis for consumption on board ships - consequential regulatory amendments and/or guidelines Page 19 19
