Industry Problem:
Through the release of Greenhouse Gases (GHG), the
industry also contributes significantly to climate change
There is continued increase in international maritime
transport which may result in shipping being
responsible for 6% of the world’s GHG emissions by
2020 & 15% by 2050.
Globally, we need to half the carbon emissions by
2050.
Carbon emissions are depleting the ozone layer.
Exposure to toxic emissions from shipping is
reported to cause cardiovascular & respiratory
diseases

Shipping Industry Background Information - EEDI
Since July 2011, the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) ,
measures theoretical CO2 emission performance of newships over 400 gross tonnes & is calculated from shipdesign and engine performance data, where:
P is 75% of the rated installed shaft power,
SFC is the specific fuel consumption,
Cf is CO2 is emission rate based on fuel type,
DWT is the ship deadweight tonnage,
Vref is the vessel speed at design load.
Shipping Industry Background Information - SEEMP
From July 2011, the Ship Energy Efficiency Management
Plan (SEEMP) was mandatory for all ships of 400 gross
tonnage and above.
From 1 January 2013, all existing ships are required to
document their energy usage through the introduction of
a Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP) that
is linked to the ship’s broader management plan
Shipping Industry Background Information - EVDI
• RightShip’s (2011), Existing Vessel Design Index ,
the EVDI™ measures a ship’s CO2 emissions CO2
emissions per tonne nautical mile travelled based
on the characteristics of the ship, and, unlike the
EEDI, the EVDI™ can be applied to existing ships.
• The GHG Emissions Rating is a practical measure
derived from the EVDI™ that allows relative
comparison of a ship’s CO2 emissions to vessels
of a similar size and type.
Shipping Industry Background Information - ESI
The Environmental Shipping Index (ESI, 2011)evaluates the amount of nitrogen oxide (NOX),sulphur oxide (SOX) that is released by a ship andincludes a reporting scheme on the greenhousegas emission of the ship.
The ESI is a good indication of the environmentalperformance of ocean going vessels and willassist in identifying cleaner ships in a generalway.
The index is intended to be used by ports toreward ships when they participate in the ESI andwill promote clean ships,
Shipping Industry Background Information - CSI
Clean Shipping Index (CSI, 2011) is a tool for
measuring the five areas of environmental impact
– CO2 emission, SOX emission, NOX emissions,
PM emissions, chemical products, water & waste
control.
Clean Shipping Index estimates how well a vessel
is doing in each area. The weighing together of
the score gives a hint of the overall performance.
Clean Shipping Index is a web-based tool which is
quick and easy to fill in for carriers – and to no
expense covers main types of vessels from all ages
Emission Reduction Measures Identified

Main Engine Tuning
Speed Control of Pumps and Fans
Current Challenges faced by the Shipping Industry - ECA
From 2016, new threshold will also
apply to nitrous oxide emissions.
From 2015, ships operating in Emissions
Control Areas will be required to use fuels with
0.1% or less sulphur content (versus 1%
previously)

Big Data helps Shipping Lines Cut Fuel Bills and Emissions
The market of ships well suited for remote monitoring to analyze data
is about 30,000 out of 100,000 commercial class vessels globally.
These 30,000 vessels could create a $20 billion value in terms of reductions in fuel consumption, downtime, maintenance expenses and environmental fines. That number could go to $50 billion by 2030.
Maersk container line has reduced greenhouse emissions per container moved nearly 40 percent since 2007 and is committed to a target reduction of 60 percent by 2020.
Maersk gives much of the credit for fuel and emissions reductions to its Global Voyage Centre, which monitors fleet operations round the clock from a situation room in Mumbai."The team is watching to ensure that the vessels keep to their optimum voyage speed.

Big Data helps Shipping Lines Cut Fuel Bills and Emissions
At a time when environmental concerns and energy prices remain high,
savings on fuel can make a significant improvement to margins.
Accurate information on fuel consumption and routes can mean the
difference between winning a customer and letting them go to a
competitor.
Increasing levels of automation and onshore vessel control are
presenting opportunities to further reduce operational expenditure.
TransMetrics brings big data to the transport and logistics industry to
improve capacity optimization, reduce costs and reduce CO2 emission.
Goal: Build a Ship Rating Tool for Ranking & Rating Ships
on their Emissions Some ships are more emission friendly than others….what is the impact of different factors in their contribution to how ‘green’ a ship is???
Emissions do not divide into ships equally and considerations sucha ship size, fuel type, engine performance as well as maritimetechnology mean that some ships are more efficient than others
Comparison of Emission Reduction Measures / Tools
EEDI EVDI™
Measures theoretical CO2 emission performance of new ships over 400 gross tonnes & is calculated from ship design and engine performance data
The EVDI™ is similar to the EEDI but can be applied to existing ships.
Derived from the EVDI™ that
allows relative comparison of a
ship’s CO2 emissions to vessels of
a similar size and type.
GHG Emissions Rating
ESI
Gives a numerical representation of the environmental performance of ships and is a function of NOX ,SOX, CO2, PM, chemicals
CSI
Gives a rating to ships & shipping companies based on their environmental performance – CO2, SOX, PM2.5,PM10,NOX,Ballast Water, Bilge Water, Chemicals (antifouling, lubricants)
Uses fuel type, vessel type, TEU, CO2, SOX, engine type, PM2.5, PM10, NOX, time spent in port, vessel weight, scrubber, auxillary engine usage at berth, the way they operate their ship, country, owner, classification society, weather, speed, propeller polishing, autopilot, hull coatings, lubricants, propeller upgrade, main engine tuning, water flow optimization, speed control of pumps and fans ++++++.
SERI
Predictive Model for Determining Ship Emission Rating Index
Neural network/Logistic regression models are used to predict the ship emission rating
Container database has a list of green ships that will be used
Dynamically Measuring “Ship Emission Rating Index (SERI)”…..
The analytical approach is suitable as it will allow us to:
Identify the key factors that contribute to the SERI for each ship type
Identify which of the key factors have a positive effect and which factors have a negative effect for
each ship type
Determine the size and impact of each factor on the SERI for each ship type
Assess the impact of SOx, NOx, CO2, PM2.5, PM10 on SERI
