What does Seemp stand for?
Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan
Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) and Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator (EEOI) The Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) is an operational measure that establishes a mechanism to improve the energy efficiency of a ship in a cost-effective manner.
What is the purpose of Seemp?
The main aim of SEEMP is to not only reduce harmful emissions from ships but also to improve efficiency and decrease fuel consumption. Mostly all new ships are implemented with SEEMP and EEDI tools to keep a proper check on pollution from ships.
What is EEDI and Seemp?
Energy efficiency design index (EEDI) defines the energy efficiency of the ship by design. It is the ratio of CO2 the ship would emit per ton-mile of the work done by the ship. SEEMP is a ship specific plan that provides the ship specific measures that need to be implemented for energy efficient operations.
Who makes Seemp?
the International Maritime Organisation
A sample form of the SEEMP can be found in “IMO Resolution MEPC. 213(63) – 2012 Guidelines for the development of a Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan”. The ship owner is obliged to develop a SEEMP taking into account the guidelines adopted by the International Maritime Organisation.
What is enhanced Seemp?
The SEEMP is a mandatory, ship-specific document that lays out the plan to improve a vessel’s energy efficiency in a cost-effective manner. The CII will most likely be based on the Annual Efficiency Ratio (AER), which is also used in the Poseidon Principles.
How can I improve my EEDI?
Slender vessel. The EEDI thresholds can be met by reducing the hull resistance, which reduces the power required for propulsion. One way to achieve this is to increase hull length, beam or both to reduce the block coefficient, enabling a slenderer design, keeping the vessel’s cargo-carrying capacity unchanged.
How can I improve my EEOI?
Speed reduction It is proven that slow ship is less energy intensive than a fast one. On average, lowering speed by 10 percent allows a fuel consumption reduction of about 20 percent per distance. It is therefore the most direct way to improve the EEOI.
What is Seemp Part II?
The SEEMP Part II has 9 sections: Ship particulars. Record of revision of fuel oil consumption data collection plan. Ship engines and other fuel oil consumers and fuel oil types used.
What is Seemp certificate?
The SEEMP is a plan which is ship specific and has to be implemented according to the ship type, cargoes carried, ship routes, and other relevant factors. Hence, SEEMP cannot be implemented on a company or fleet level.
When was Seemp implemented?
It is applicable on a voluntary basis at present and is designed to provide the framework, against which, a shipowner can develop best practice and energy efficient operations. The IMO will introduce the SEEMP as a mandatory tool under MARPOL Annex VI, entering into force on January 1, 2013.
How do you implement Seemp?
The SEEMP approach seeks to improve a ship’s energy efficiency through four steps: ❖ Planning, ❖ Implementation, ❖ Monitoring, ❖ Self-evaluation and Improvement. optimization, weathering routeing, hull maintenance etc.
