Trends From Posidonia

Collecting and processing data creates a common ecosystem - no matter the operator - given the standardised structure that the end user can take advantage of. The pace of transformation has accelerated recently in the shipping industry, driven by sub…

Trends From Posidonia

Indeed, the human element is perhaps the most important aspect, along with the cultural impact. In fact, a "useful rule of thumb" is that it is the HUMAN ELEMENT that is the MOST CRITICAL ASPECT. This is ALWAYS the case.…

Energy Saving Devices (ESD)

ESDs provide a direct increase in vessel propulsion efficiency by reducing hull resistance and improving propeller thrust. In particular they comprise devices fitted before or after the propeller, while also having high-performance hull coatings to reduce resistance. In front of…

Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP)

Along with EEDI, the IMO introduced the Ship energy efficiency management plan (SEEMP). It is the complementary measure that establishes a mechanism to improve the energy efficiency of a ship in a cost-effective manner. SEEMP includes the enhancement of the…

eShip Final Event

This is an excellent opportunity not only to assess the level of achievement of the project’s goals during the past two years but also to define next steps for the commercialisation of the eShip platform (www.eship.pt) as a web-based application…

Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) for New Ships

During the MEPC 62 (July 2011), the IMO adopted the Energy efficiency design index for new ships which establishes an energy efficiency identity for all the new-built ships since 2013. The IMO utilises a specific formula that estimates the CO2…

Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII)

Is an operational measure of how efficiently a vessel transports its cargo, essentially in grams of Co2 emitted by (i) cargo-carrying capacity and (ii) nautical mile. The CII calculation is essentially more straightforward, albeit more complex when it comes to…

Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI)

The EEXI provides a framework for determining the efficiency of the design of a vessel by expressing its energy efficiency / emissions performance. EEXI regulation relates to existing ships, but each ship type has different factors to consider (the strictest…

ESG Metrics belong to the set of future development of eShip

The importance of these metrics relates to: The ENVIRONMENTAL side, because there are increasingly stringent requirements related to emissions from ships The SOCIAL point of view, for the areas of crew well-being, as well as health and safety on board,…
