CURRENT MAJOR ISSUES

SustainabilityFive-Year Strategic Plan

Ballast water managementPiracy

Greenhouse gas emissionsHigh level discussions with OCIMF


SustainabilityINTERTANKO Council (Nov 2011) agreed that the Secretariat should:

1. Engage in a dialogue with OCIMF on the ship’s speed which is currently used in charter party agreements, in an effort to reduce air emissions.

2. Engage with stakeholders to brainstorm ways to address the concerns while ensuring there is not an erosion of the safety/quality standards in the current market conditions.


INTERTANKO Council (May 2012) agreed to: 1. development of an optimal speed model to show the relationship between the time charter equivalent earnings and CO2 emissions, based on a known freight rate for a specific route and different tanker speeds. 2. expand scope of the WorldScale Committee to include commercial issues that have an impact on tanker operations, including:

• proper promotion of speed optimization• rising fuel costs• broker’s fees• certain charter party clauses regarding purging

and cargo heating; and • possible decoupling the fuel costs from the

commercial transactions.

EXCOM (Sept 2012):

• acknowledged tanker owners contributed to the problems by over-ordering;

• agreed that current market levels could actually endanger the supply chain element of safe, sustainable transportation of oil, products and chemicals.;

• agreed that INTERTANKO should explore mechanisms to redress the risk/reward balance for owners with a view of ensuring future sustainability of the industry as a whole and a transparent, balanced and functioning tanker market; and

• focus will be on engagement with all stakeholders, including brokers, charterers and oil companies


Five-Year Strategic Plan

• Scenario planning looking at macro environment and influences

• Key influences:

Market conditionsGeo-political situation worldwideEnvironmental concerns

• Most likely scenario for the next five years –

Strong environmental concerns within an unstable geopolitical situation



Major Issues

• Sustainability • Human Element • Tanker safety and performance• Greenhouse Gas Emission reduction• Air emissions reduction• Ballast water management • Maritime security threats



Desired Outcomes

Sustainability

• Members have access to tools, models and information to enable them to continue operating

Tanker Safety & Performance

• Members proactively positioned for top performance with regard to safety & performance



Desired Outcomes

Human Element

• Criminalization of seafarers• Visas and shore access• Seafarer welfare and fair treatment• Competence• Availability


Five-Year Strategic PlanGreenhouse Gas Emission Reduction

• Members’ new tankers meet, preferably exceed, required EEDI values and CO2 emission reductions targets

• Development of solid industry practices and a monitoring system relevant to GHG emission reductions from tankers in operation, in cooperation with other stakeholders such as OCIMF, allowing Members’ tanker fleets to achieve & demonstrate increases in efficiency

• While legislation on MBMs is not justified at this time, if it were to be implemented, the Association will support/ promote the most practical and transparent MBM alternative at IMO, but not at regional level


Five-Year Strategic PlanDesired outcomes

Air Emission Reduction• Promote global switch to MGO

• Members fully advised on best choices for compliance with ECA requirements (and on how to assess/select scrubbers)

• Revised EU Sulphur Directive aligned w/MARPOL

Ballast Water Management• Members able to achieve compliance with current and

future discharge standards (both regionally and internationally)


Five-Year Strategic PlanDesired outcomes

Global Maritime Security Threats

• Members suitably informed to protect vessels and crew from maritime security threats

• Key stakeholders develop policies and positions benefiting the whole industry to ensure freedom of navigation

• Members suitably informed of sanctions that affect their trading patterns to enable them to make informed decisions on lawful trade


Greenhouse gas emissions

Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI)• Amendments to the MARPOL Convention • Enter into force Jan 1, 2013 for new ships• Provisions for 4 year waiver• Method of compliance??

Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP)

• Applies to new and existing ships• Ship-specific plan developed by the ship owner• INTERTANKO guide on Tanker EEMP



INTERTANKO policy on implementation of IMO Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) requirements:

• 4 year waiver – Apply equally to all new ships

• Method of compliance – Improved hull design, propulsion efficiency and energy optimisation, rather than predominantly on reduced speed designs



Market Based Measures (MBMs)• Governments believe EEDI is not enough• Nine proposals under consideration at IMO• Fund, Emission Trading Scheme (ETS),

Efficiency incentive scheme

INTERTANKO Policy on MBMs• MBMs are not justified at this time• If an MBM should be required:

1. Fund is simplest and most transparent2. Not in favor of an ETS


High level discussions with OCIMF

• Greenhouse gas emissions

• Piracy – Armed guards

• Tanker officer competency and experience

• Vetting matters

• Mercury in crude oil, safety aspects

• Sustainability of the Tanker industry
