GENERAL INFORMATION

INTRODUCTION

The SEEMP was developed through detailed discussion between the member states, and with the advice and assistance of the international shipping industry, through a specialized working group on Greenhouse gas emissions convened by the International Maritime Organizations (IMO) Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC). Shipboard Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) sets up a procedure for Shipping Companies, Owners, Operators and Stake Holders to improve the energy efficiency to operate a vessel. The Mercantile Shipping Lines Ltd is committing itself to develop and comply the SEEMP to protect the environment by tracking and analyzing energy consumption on operated ship under its ownership or control, using best practices, experience knowledge and technical guidelines to improve the energy efficiency while reducing GHG emissions. The SEEMP may be included in the company's safety management system because of the systematic overlapping.

DEFINITIONS

4.1 SEEMP The Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) is a management plan designed to improve the ship energy efficiency by implementing operational or technical measures such as but not limited to speed optimization, optimum trim, propeller polishing, The SEEMP should be developed as a ship-specific plan by the company. It seeks to improve a ship's energy efficiency through four steps: planning implementation monitoring Self-evaluation and improvement

These components play a critical role in the continuous cycle to improve ship energy management. At each iteration of the cycle, some elements of the SEEMP will necessarily change while others may remain as before.

4.2 International Energy Efficiency Certificate (IEEC) The International Energy Efficiency Certificate is defined in Appendix VIII of the IMO Resolution MEPC 203.(62). It includes in particular the requirement for the SEEMP for all existing and new ships above 400 GT.T he SEEMP is listed in the record of construction relating to energy efficiency attached to the International Energy Efficiency Certificate. Its presence onboard is to be verified at intermediate and renewal surveys required under existing MARPOL Annex VI for the International Air Pollution Prevention Certificate (IAPP). The certificate is to be issued or endorsed either by the Administration or a Recognised Organization. 4.3 Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator (EEOI) The Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator (EEOI) is the number of grams of CO2 emissions per tonne nautical mile calculated using the ship's actual operational data (specific fuel consumption, cargo mass carried, and distance sailed).It indicates the ship's energy efficiency actually achieved during operation. The EEOI is to be calculated in accordance with the Guidelines of IMO Circular MEPC.1/Circ.684. The minimum period to be taken for the calculation of the EEOI is one trip, including the voyage leg and the ballast leg if any The EEOI for a given voyage is designated as:

1.1

OPERATIONAL MEASURES

1.1.1

SPEED OPTIMIZATION

Generally, even a small decrease of speed will have a significant effect in the decrease of emissions. Also, a gradual increase in speed when leaving a port or estuary whilst keeping the engine load within certain limits may help to optimize gas consumption. As part of the speed optimization process, due account may need to be taken of the need to coordinate arrival times with the availability of loading/discharge berths, etc. The number of ships engaged in a particular trade route may need to be taken into account when considering speed optimization. Possible adverse consequences of slow speed operation may include entering into barred frequencies of vibration torsion to be taken into account. (Description of the constraints of the considered ship) The following procedures should be considered in the application of the Speed Optimization measure: Most Economical Speed is the minimum speed that the vessel can operate at on a continuous basis, where there are sufficient engines loads for continuous economic mode running. Adjust speed for timed arrival is adjusting RPM's closest to most economical speed in order to arrive prior to or at a specific time.

VOYAGE PLANNING OPTIMIZATION

An efficient voyage planning application enables Master to make decision taking into account weather forecast, sea conditions, currents and most appropriate proprieties from the Company to load cargo in due time with sufficient per warning . However the reality of spot markets, opportunities and also terminal unwarned unavailability of cargo may impair the ideal voyage planning optimization mechanism. This should imply close connections with terminal and port authorities, local agents and buyers of the cargo, which is far from being simple to organize. 1.1.3

WEATHER ROUTING

Weather Routing allows the Master to plan routes, when possible, to take advantage of favorable weather and avoid adverse weather to obtain the best performance in speed or consumption. Weather routing has a high potential for efficiency savings on specific routes. It is commercially available for all types of ship and for many trade areas. Significant savings can be achieved, but conversely weather routing may also increase fuel consumption for a given voyage. Efficient weather routing helps the Master to improve the performance, scheduling, fuel consumption, and to some extent safety of a ship. The company is today using weather forecast charts and leave to the Master to decide the most appropriate route for avoiding bad weather. The main reason to avoid bad condition is to save life vessel, its property, environment, cargo and fuel (energy). For all those reasons, weather routing is a winning option and will be considered for adoption by the Company. 1.1.4 CARGO DELOADING AND LOADING OPERATIONS

Loading and discharging operation to a large extent depend on port facility being used by a operating vessel. However there is an important role to play from ships side as well. While preparing a loading/uploading plan all inform. Action with regards to loading and unloading equipment, their operating time to be collected. As per available information, loading/unloading plan to be prepared in order to make best we and minimize vessels power generating equipment.

SEEMP 1.1.5

Page: 10

DIESEL ENGINE LOAD AND ELECTRIC DEMAND OPTIMIZATION

Diesel Generator sets are much more efficient when working at high load factors than when at part loads. For the best consumption results the minimum number of sets should be operated at the highest load factor possible from the safety aspect. The operating profile and the power balance sheets prepared during vessel design should be taken in to account and consumer specific instructions issued to the crew.Correct timing for changing the number of generating sets is a critical factor in consumption in diesel electric and auxiliary power installations. An efficient power management system is the best way to improve the system performance. Running extensively at low load can easily increase the SFOC by 5-10%.Low load increases the risk of turbine fouling with a further impact on fuel consumption. Measures can be taken to reduce the consumption of electric power, some of which are mentioned below: 1.1.6 Electrical/electronic equipment should be secure when not required to meet the ship operational requirements. USE OF WASTE HEAT RECOVERY BOILERS

Waste heat recovery systems use thermal heat losses from the exhaust gas for steam production as widely practiced currently on board most vessels. On existing vessels waste heat recovery is performed by use of the exhaust gas economizer. Its use should be maximized so as to reduce the need for using oil fired boilers. The EGE should be regularly maintained and kept in good operating condition. 1.1.7 OPTIMIZATION OF HVAC SYSTEM DELIVERY POWER

After propulsion, HVAC (heating, ventilation and air-conditioning) can be one of the main energy consumers onboard, accounting for roughly 30% of the energy consumed on some ships . The HVAC systems consist of the condenser, evaporator, heaters, pumps, fans, and cabin units. All these systems are interlinked in the duct or pipe system, and they affect each other. Also a system that controls the air supply in the engine room can be used. The system should provide the most energy savings when in port and during slow steaming as the capacity of engine room ventilation and combustion air is made to match the much lower ventilation demand. As far as operation of existing systems is concerned, maintenance of the plant is of utmost importance for its efficient operation. Furthermore, specific adjustments can be made to the thermostats for temperatures that are both comfortable for the crew but also energy conserving. Finally, open or closed window blinds can have a big effect on the heat losses through the accommodation windows. 1.1.8 HEADING CONTROL / AUTO PILOT FUNCTION OPTIMIZATION

An integrated Navigation and Command System can achieve significant fuel savings by simply reducing the distance sailed off track. The principle is simple; better course control through less frequent and smaller corrections will minimize losses due to rudder resistance. Whilst originally developed to make the bridge team more effective, autopilots can achieve much more. At certain stages of the voyage the system may have to be deactivated or very carefully adjusted, i.e. heavy weather and approaches to ports. During approaches to ports and pilot stations the autopilot cannot always be used efficiently as the rudder has to respond quickly to given commands. .

CREWTRAININGONENERGYEFFICIENCYAWARENESS

For effective and steady implementation of the adopted measures, raising awareness of and providing necessary training for personnel both on shore and on board are an important element. Such human resource development is encouraged and should be considered as an important component of planning as well as a critical element of implementation. A full awareness of the reasons for improving efficiency on board as well as an understanding of the options to be implemented by the company will require training. Implementing an onboard awareness campaign together with training on the fundamentals of the Management Plan will ensure the efficiency measures agreed by the company are successfully implemented. Such training should go hand-inhand with crew familiarization of the vessel's measurement and monitoring systems to ensure there is a full understanding of the instrument dials and recorded readings. Crew must be able to determine when scenarios arise in which action is required. This will require an understanding of the engine shop and sea trial reports for comparison with readings from monitoring and measuring equipment. The Chief Engineer as well as shore support team should be consulted to determine the action to be taken in the case of variations or differences in the readings.

1.2.1

MAINTENANCE IMPROVEMENT MEASURES

HULL CLEANING AND HULL COATING SYSTEM

All ships have some degree of bio fouling, even those which may have been recently cleaned or had a new application of an anti-fouling coating system. Studies have shown that the bio fouling process begins within the first few hours of a ship's immersion in water. The bio fouling that may be found on a ship is influenced by a range of factors, such as follows: design and construction, particularly the number, location and design of niche areas; specific operating profile, including factors such as operating speeds, ratio of time underway compared with time alongside, moored or at anchor, and where the ship is located when not in use (e.g., open anchorage or estuarine port); places visited and trading routes; Maintenance history, including: the type, age and condition of any anti-fouling coating system, installation and operation of anti-fouling systems and dry-docking/slipping and hull cleaning practices.

Ship bottoms not protected by anti-fouling systems may gather 150 kg of fouling per square meter in less than six months of being at sea. Just a small amount of fouling can lead to an increase of fuel consumption of up to 40%, and possibly as much as 50%, since the resistance to movement will be increased. A clean ship can sail faster and use less energy. An effective anti-fouling system can save a shipowner money in a number of ways: Direct fuel savings by keeping the hull free of fouling organisms; Extended dry-docking interval, when the anti-fouling system provides several years of use; Increased vessel availability - since it does not have to spend so much time in dry dock.

The periodicity of drydockings is also very important in managing hull cleanliness. Docking intervals should be integrated with ship operators ongoing assessment of ship performance. Regular in-water inspection of the condition of the hull is recommended. Consideration may be given to the possibility of timely full removal and replacement of underwater paint systems to avoid the increased hull roughness caused by repeated spot blasting and repairs over multiple dockings. Hull resistance can be optimized by new technology-coating systems. Silicon paint will improve propulsion efficiency thus reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions..

SEEMP

Fluoropolymer foul release coating, associated with a careful drydocking cycle follow up, improve the hull efficiency by minimizing the average hull roughness growth, thus minimizing the frictional resistance evolution. PROPELLER CLEANING AND POLISHING

1.2.2

Propeller cleaning may significantly increase fuel efficiency. The simplest form of maintenance on a propeller is to clean it. Even a 1mm layer of accumulated fouling or calcium deposits on a propeller will significantly increase its roughness, and within 12 months or so can increase an ISO class I to an ISO class II, or a class II to a III. This causes large increases in fuel consumption. Practical figures and elaborate tests indicate a 6 to 12% gain in fuel consumption in polishing a propeller from a class III condition to a class I condition. Some propellers support marine growth up to 20 mm thick, which obviously has a major effect. Cleaning, involves the removal of this growth, leaving behind a clean surface. The manner in which this is done is important. If the growth is removed rapidly using harsh abrasives, the surface of the blades may look shiny, but they will be deeply scratched. These scratches will themselves impart a roughness that is beyond the 1.6 micron tolerance required for a class I propeller. Additionally, the scratches will provide an ideal key for further calcification, micro- and macro-fouling, speeding up the fouling process and often making things worse than they were before. The correct procedure for polishing a blade leaves a very smooth surface, which will resist future fouling. Although slightly more time consuming to achieve, this level of finish is desirable as its long-term effects on fouling and engine wear more than compensate for the initial costs.

WEATHER ROUTING

This installation should be supervised on the Company administration level. The weather routing system, centralized at the Company office shore based, is provides the Master with various route options, a weather forecast of 10 days including route optimization, post-voyage analysis, and route reports. The Weather Routing System also allows Master to update the forecast during the voyage, to make adjustments if necessary and to review collected data after the voyage. All ships navigating in regions of storm activity and ships on trans-ocean passages are required to request weather routing advice from central weather routing service for each voyage. Ships on coastal voyages may not be required to participate in weather routing. Except this situation, they are all required to request weather routing prior to each passage. An email is to be sent to the Company to request weather routing advice. The email should include information on: a. b. c. d. departure port (or position); estimated Time of Departure (ETD); destination port (or position); voyage Plan (Master's voyage plan should consist of Master's planned route already optimized by using onboard system); e. intended speed; f. load condition; and g. Any special concerns or requirements. Once the Weather Routing System Department (WRSD) receives the routing request from a vessel, it will provide the ship with its suggested route (Master's route further optimized for weather). In addition, following best practices shall apply: a. During the voyage, the Master should contact WRSD if the experienced weather differs from the forecasted weather using the Master's hotline. b. Prior to any tank cleaning and preparing for shipyard, the Master should contact WRSD to seek advice on the best time to perform the procedures to maintain optimum seakeeping.

HULL CLEANINGAND HULLCOATINGSYSTEM

This measure is present here for further consideration by the Company, after a need has been identified. However, consideration shall be put on specificity of some necessary periods of anchoring, which influent the fouling dramatic growing. Thus, by improving the voyage planning, also some positive consequence will impact on hull painting resistance and efficiency. In conjunction with every propeller polish, the hull is inspected for damage and marine growth as follows: A. Within one year in 2012: B. Less than 2 years after dry-docking: C. More than 2 years after dry-docking: Divers assess the entire hull Divers assess stern and rudder Divers assess the entire hull

Based on underwater inspection results, if there is significant growth on the hull, an immediate decision to clean the hull will be made in conjunction with the Superintendent or the Duty Hull and Coatings Engineer. The divers are to compile a detailed report containing the fouling condition details before and after cleaning. When a ship is observed to be underperforming a decision is made about employing a diver for underwater inspection. Otherwise, the inspection is done on a regular baisis at each stop at Fos. For excessive biofouling a decision for occasional drydocking for hull cleaning and painting only can be made.

The crews and Company personnel normally attend an annual internal Company seminar with several topics. A specific workshop can be organized by BV on Energy Efficiency and Environment topics. The application of the SEEMP will be included in such seminar. Furthermore, each new officer goes through induction training by the ISM department. The SEEMP will be included in this induction training. When the SEEMP was first introduced on board the vessel, the attending duty shore based officer performed the first awareness training to the crew about the plan. Onboard each ship, every Tuesday, following the 9am job meeting, a specific Energy Efficiency discussion is organized. It shall present the Energy Efficient action of the month, chosen in the list of on-going actions or introduced on a voluntary basis. The Chief Engineer is in charge of the management of this action and training.

Knot Conversion from g/tonne mile to g/tone-km by multiplication by 0.54. For a given voyage, the unit can be set as go and back from Marseille, with loading stop at Arzew. The EEOI willbe calculated at each end of ballast/laden voyage. The Chief Engineer will be in charge of the calculation of the EEOI and the record for further exploitation. Each month, the CE will produce the main value of the EEOI to the shore. Here it is necessary to use the detailed formula with the given data:

SELF EVALUATION PROCEDURES& IMPROVEMENT

The purpose of the fourth step, the self-evaluation, is to evaluate the effectiveness of the planned measures and their implementation; deepen the understanding of ship operational characteristics in order tounderstand the trend ofship energy efficiency improvement and to develop an improved SEEMP for the next cycle. This is achieved by develop a procedure for self-evaluation of the SEEMP. The self-evaluation is to be assessed periodically.

4.1

PROCEDURES

Each year a report will be produced to highlight the EEOI trends and check if the objective set is obtained.

4.2.1

EVALUATION RESULTS Global Evaluation Results

The EEOI monthly and annually reports will be used for the global evaluation results. 4.2.2 Evaluation Results per Measure

Each measure will be evaluated monthly on board the vessel for continual improvement and increased efficiency. Office review will be carried out every quarter to evaluate the effectiveness of implemented measures and include further identification and implementation of appropriate improvement measures. Top Management will review the energy efficiency program results achieved on annual basis and implement strategic action accordingly.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
COMPLEMENTARY ENERGY AUDIT

An onboard energy audit is an independent survey and assessment of the overall energy consumption and efficiency of each electrical consumer onboard a vessel and proportionally of the company's fleet. It can be a useful first step in providing detailed recommendations and areas of improvement for each ship. These surveys and assessments normally involve the periodical survey of a vessel's engine room and other locations for sources of energy losses. The main approach is to perform testing and measurement of the actual SFOC of the four D/G and compare to the delivery one. It should give a trend of energy performances of the ship. The main converters and the main propulsion engine will also to be assessed. As it is not practically feasible to test all energy providers and consumer onboard, this SFOC measurement of M/E generators will be accompanied by an impression of the general level of maintenance and awareness of the crew.
