CII & EEXI assessment - consulting service

Do you know that new amendments to MARPOL Annex VI will come into force very soon?

IMO in 2018 put an initial strategy in place to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from ships, setting out a vision which confirms its commitment to phasing them out across international shipping, and focusing initially on a reduction in carbon intensity by at least 40% on average by 2030. 

As agreed during the 76th session of the IMO Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC 76) new amendments to MARPOL Annex VI were adopted with the aim to reduce GHG emissions from ships.  

In particular, short-term measures EEXI and CII will be in force starting from 1st January 2023. 

RINA CII and EEXI consulting services 

Our consulting service aims at supporting shipowners and management companies with their decarbonization path, especially in understanding the latest MARPOL amendments and keeping them constantly informed on the latest updates.

Our EEXI consulting service includes:

• Calculation of the Attained and Required values
• Ship’s current EEXI calculation (attained vs required)
• EEXI gap and evaluation of the EPL percentage needed in order to meet the requirements.
• Analysis of other technical options in order to achieve the targets
• Additional investigation for ship efficiency (CFD, sea trials, onboard power monitoring)
• Preparation of the EEXI technical file 

Our CII consulting service includes: 

• Preliminary assessment of the Carbon Intensity Indicator attained vs required
• Evaluation of operational profile and potential improvement in order to reach the IMO target in 2023 
• Study of solutions such as Energy Saving Devices (ESD), Trim Optimization and others, in order to improve the operational profile of the vessel
• Preparation of the revised SEEMP

The new measures imply an updated of the SEEMP as well: ships of 5,000 GT and above engaged in international voyages are required to be SEEMP compliant. 

This must include a description of the calculation methodology used for the annual CII and other processes, an implementation plan for achieving annual CII over 3 years, and a procedure for self-evaluation and improvement.
