GHG Indexing of Ships and its updates Dr. Tim Gunner, Technical Consultant, Intertanko

IMO Position Assembly Resolution 963 “To identify and develop the mechanism or mechanisms needed to achieve the limitation or reduction of GHG emissions…. and to give priority to: –The establishment of a GHG Baseline –The development of a methodology to describe the GHG efficiency of a ship… recognize that CO 2 is the main GHG emitted by ships –The development of guidelines by which GHG emission indexing may be applied in practice –The evaluation of technical, operational and market based solutions
3
IMO Position and Findings IMO Study on Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Ships published in June 2000 Findings: –Ships contribute about 1.8% of World’s total CO 2 emissions –Reductions feasible through technical and operational measures
4
IMO Procedure MEPC/Circ.471 Interim Guidelines for Voluntary CO 2 Indexing for use in Trials – issued 29 July 2005 Trial period until MEPC 58 – October 2008 – where report of experiences requested

GHG Indexing of Ships CO 2 Equation used for “Yearly” Calculations C. Con. Factor * FC i / (M Cargo i * Dist i ) CO 2 Equation used for “Voyage” Calculations C. Con. Factor * FC i / (M Cargo i * Dist i )
10
GHG Indexing of Ships GHG Index used for “Yearly” and “Voyage” calculations uses same principle but incorporates refrigerant gas refill tonnage (RF) and the Global Warming Potential (GWP = 3780) of the gas to equate it to CO 2 equivalency (C.Conv.Factor * FC i ) + ( RF i * GWP) / (C.Conv.Factor * FC i ) + ( RF i * GWP) / (M Cargo i * Dist i )
