PHASE – OUT OF SINGLE HULL
TANKERS
INTERTANKO LATIN AMERICAN PANEL November 16, 2005
Miami Beach, Florida
PHASE–OUT OF S.H. TANKERS
• USA – OPA 90 unchanged/clear/simple– 2010 drop date for all US ports– 2015 final drop date for all offshore & lightering
areas
• IMO – many rule changes - 1992/2001/2003– Reg. 13G – initial clear/complex after amendments– Reg. 13H – restricts # of cargoes on SH tankers
REG. 13G/20 (as amended 2001/2003)• the ”25/30 years” criterion replaced with• a (similar to) OPA 90 phase-out type schedule• phase-out by ship type & ship delivery date
– type 1 (pre-MARPOL) – out by end 2005– type 2 (PL/SBT) S.H. - out by end 2010 except when
Administration allows until the 25th anniverssary but not later that 2015 (13G(7))
– type 2 - DS/DB (as of 07/01/2001) – 25th anniverssary (pending Adminsitration approval; 13G(5))
– type 3 (all tankers under 20K DWT) – as ship type 2• CAS – ships 15 years and over – survey planning
compulsory (work with your Flag/RO well before due time)• BUT, 13G(8) gives Port State the right to deny entry
NEW REG. 13H/21 (amended 2005)
• ”heavy grade of oil” (HGO)• HGO is any oil with
– density 900 kg/cub.m and over (at 15 Celsius) OR
– kinematic viscosity 180 sq.mm/s (at 50 Celsiuis)
– plus bitumen, tar and their emulssions
• Application:– 04/05/2005 in DH only for ships above 5,000 dwt
– ship’s anniverssary date in 2008 in DB/double containment for ships between 600 dwt and 5,000 dwt
NEW REG. 13H/21(possible) Exemptions
• DS/DB (as was 12/4/2003) may transport HGO up to 25th anniverssary if Administration allows (13H(5))
• SH tankers over 5,000 dwt may transport crude oil with density up to 944.9 kg/cub.m up to 25th anniverssary if Adminsitration allows (13H(6)(a))
• SH tankers between 600 dwt and 5,000 dwt may transport HGOs up to 25th anniversary if Administration allows (13H86)(b))
• SH tankers or FPSO/FSU may transport/store HGOs in one country’s waters, if allowed (13H(7))
• BUT Port States can deny entry of any of the above (13H(8))

MARPOL Annex VI
Regulations for the Prevention of Air Pollution from Ships
INTERTANKO LATIN AMERICAN PANEL November 16, 2005
Miami Beach, Florida
RATIFICATION
• Ratified by 22 Governments that have a combined tonnage over 50% of World tonnage
• ENTERED INTO FORCE on MAY 19th, 2005• Ratification by:• Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Bangladesh, Barbados,
Bulgaria, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece, Japan, Liberia, Marshall Islands, Norway, Panama, St. Kitts and Nevis, Samoa, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, Vanuatu.
IMPLEMENTATIONMission impossible?
• All Ships are to comply irrespective of Flag State – Article 5(4) of MARPOL Convention – “no more favourable treatment”
• But no obligation for ”non party” Governments• Many major ports still ”non-parties” (e.g USA, The
Netherlands, etc.)• Bunkering in a “non party” port followed by a call in
a “party” port – source of trouble out of ship’s control• Bunker Delivery documentation and Sample – here is
the difficulty – FSI 13 & MEPC 53
Certification & Survey under Annex VI
Certification application: any ship of 400 GT and above• New ships – before enter into service (built on or
after 05/19/2005)• Existing ships – not later that the first scheduled dry-
docking but not later than 05/18/2008Survey• Intial• Periodical (5 years)• Intermediate• Annual
MARPOL Annex VI
• Scope: Control of exhaust gas emissions from ships• Regulations for limiting/eliminating emissions of:
– Ozon-depleting substances– Nitrogen oxides (NOx)– Sulphur oxides (SOx)– Volatile organic compunds (VOC)– Shipboard incinerators
• Additinal requirements for:– Reception facilities– Fuel oil quality
Ozone-depleting substances
• Any deliberate emissions shall be prohibited
• New installation containing HCFCs (hydrochlorofluorocarbons) are permitted until January 1st, 2020
• These substances, when removed from ships, must be delivered to reception facilities
Nitrogen Oxides (NOx)• New engines (i.e. power > 130 kW, installed on ships
with buildng contract as from 01/01/2000) need to be compliant
• The NOx emission is limited to 17 g/kW h for engines operating at max. 130 rpm but reducing to 9.8 g/kW h for 2000 rpm and more. Between these revs the limit is designated by equation:
45 * n(-0.2) g/kW h• Existing engines can be run, but • Major Conversion:
– engine replacement after January 1st, 2000– substantial modification as defines in the NOx Tech. Code– the MCR of the engine is increased by more than 10%
Technical File
• Identification of components, settings and operating values which influences NOx
• Identification of the full range of allowable adjustments of alternatives for the components
• Full records of the engine’s peformance
• Onboard NOx verification method
Sulphur Oxides (SOx)
• Sulphur content of bunkers should not exceed– World wide trade 4.5%– Baltic Sea (from 05/19/2006) 1.5%– North Sea (from 10/2007 or 08/2007) 1.5%
• Alternative exhaust gas cleaning on:– funnel– IG scrubbers
Shipboard Procedures for SECAs
• Plan in advance for entry and enter commencement date/time of preparation in Logbook together with bunker type quantities onboard.
• Logbook record when entry requirements met and when ship enters SECA - remember Lat. & Long., date/time, together with bunker figures for each tank.
• Maintain daily record of bunker used and quantification of bunker tanks whilst in SECA.
• DO NOT COMMENCE SHIFT TO HIGH SULPHUR FUEL UNTIL EXIT FROM SECA. Log existing conditions for bunkers and Lat. & Long. with date/time.
Action Advantage Disadvantage
Timely switch over No equipment Excessive use of LSF
HFO & LSF in segregated tanks
Rapid change over
Lower LSF consumption
Retrofitting needed
Use of scrubbers Reduction 90% of SOx
Use of HFO only
Technology yet to be approved
Ship to demonstrate no environmental impact
Initial costs
Sludge deposits
Onboard blending Keeps costs down
Simpler tank arrangement
Liability of compliance on the ship
Need for a blending plant
Emission Trading If often operating in SECAs
Use of HFO
System not in place
Questionable whether allowed for a long period
ALTERNATIVES for SECAs
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC)
• Specific control of VOC emissons in ports and terminals
• Tankers to have and use vapour collection systems (return lines) at the loading ports (VOC return manifold and operation standards in MSC/Circ.585)
• Ports/terminals to provide reception facilities for VOCs
• So far, very few terminals have such facilities• New technologies
Incinerators
• Incinerators installed after Jan. 1st, 2000 to meet regulations and must be certified to meet the specifications in MEPC Resolution 76(40) (Appendix IV of Annex VI).
• Each incinerator must have a manufacturer’s operations manual.
• Crew responsible for the incinerator operation shall be trained and follow the operation manual.
Operation of Incinerators
• The following substances are prohibited from incineration:– Annex I, II and III cargo residues and related packing
material.– PCBs.– Garbage as defined by Annex V containing heavy metals.– Petroleum Products containing halogens.
• PVC can only be incinerated in type approved incinerators.
• Flue gas temperatures shall be monitored and not less than 850 deg C for continuous feed and reach 600 deg C within 5 minutes for batch feed.
Fuel Oil Quality
• “Fuel oil shall be blends of hydrocarbons derived from petroleum refining”
• “Fuel oil shall be free from inorganic acid”• “Fuel oil shall not include any added substance or
chemical waste which either:– jeopardises the safety of ships or adversely affects
the performance of the machinery, or– is harmful to personnel, or– contributes overall to additional air pollution”
Fuel Oil Quality• Bunker Delivery Note (BDN)
– Becomes a Statutory document– Must be kept on board for 3 years for inspection and a copy may
be taken for further examination by PSC.– Must contain all data required by Appendix V
• Name and IMO number of vessel• Port• Date of Commencement of delivery• Details of fuel oil supplier• Product name, quantity , Density at 15 0C and Sulphur content
% m/m• A declaration that fuel supplied meets Regulation 14 and
18 requirements
Declaration on Fuel Oil Quality
• bunker suppliers should make the certification in the BDN in the column provided for supplier’s confirmation, as follows:
“We certify that the bunker fuel oil delivered meets the requirements of regulations 14 and 18 of Annex VI of MARPOL 73/78.”
Fuel Oil Quality - Sampling
• A sealed sample meeting the requirements in associated guidelines has to be supplied to the ship by the bunker supplier
• For each individual BDN a sample has to be taken at the vessel’s bunker receiving manifold. (see procedure in associated guidelines) – ISM Manuals !!??
• The sample label has to be signed by both the bunker supplier’s representative and the vessel’s Chief Engineer.
• The sample size shall be not less than 400 mls• The sample is not to be used for any commercial purpose• The sample is to be retained on board for at least 1 year for
inspection by PSC as required
Shipboard Procedures for BDN and Samples
• Adequate bunker manifold location for sampler attachment
• External safe storage location for samples for 1 year period
• Log book for sample retention and custody transfer
• Safe storage for BDNs and other documents relating to bunkering onboard
Bunker Emission Clause for time charters 1. Owners warrant that the vessel shall comply with the emission control and
other requirements of Regulations 14 and 18 of MARPOL Annex VI and any other laws or regulations relating to bunker specification and bunkering procedures applicable in any areas to which the vessel is ordered.
2. Charterers warrant that they will supply bunkers:– of sufficient quantity and quality to enable the vessel to meet the emission
control and other requirements of Regulations 14 and 18 of MARPOL Annex VI and any other laws or regulations relating to bunker specification and bunkering procedures applicable in any areas to which the vessel is ordered, and
– in accordance with the specifications in the latest version of ISO 8217 as at the time of supply and any other specifications contained elsewhere in this charter party.
3. Charterers further warrant that all bunker suppliers shall comply with the requirements of MARPOL Annex VI and MEPC96(47) in respect of sampling and the provision of a bunker delivery notes and, where bunkers are supplied in a state where MARPOL Annex VI is in force, that suppliers shall be registered in accordance therewith.
Port State Control
• IMO Guidelines for PSCO adopted at MEPC53
• Initial inspections and Primary survey parameters – then “Clear Grounds” required for in-depth inspections
• “In depth” inspection parameters
• Detainable deficiencies
• Non-Party ship inspections
Onboard certificates & documentation
• EIAPP Cert. And Technical File for each D/E• Record of Engine Parameters• Manual for onboard direct measurement and
monitoring (if applicable)• Official Log Book• Operation manual of Vapour collection system• Operation manual for Incinerator• Bunker Delivery Note - Ship’s Note to Flag States –
reports on non-compliance

• NECESSARY ALTERATIONS TO MEET ANNEX VI REQUIREMENTS– Pre-bunkering meeting and check list– Sampling and Measurement procedures– Post-bunkering documentation process
MARPOL Annex VIfuture developments/amendments
• MEPC 53 – July 2005 decided to open Annex VI for revision
• Possible revisions on:– World and SECA sulphur cap– New SECAs– Lower NOx limits
• Possible new requirements:– Include limits for PM– Require specific technologies to contain VOCs
Regional Requirements
• EU Sulphur Directive– 2000 – if used, MGO/MDO max. 0.2% sulphur content
– 2010 – as Annex VI + use of 0.1% sulphur content fuels for ships ”at berth”
– EU to promote its policies to IMO but will go its way if IMO too slow or not receptive to new proposals
• USA– Federal - EPA
– State legislations
