The Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) is a rating system for ships that the International Maritime Organization (IMO) developed. This will be a mandatory measure under MARPOL Annex VI, which came into force on the 1st January 2023.The measure will impact all cargo, RoPax and cruise vessels above 5,000 gross tonnage (GT) and trading internationally.The CII determines the annual reduction factor needed to continuously improve the ship's operational carbon intensity within a specific rating level. The actual annual operational CII achieved will need to be documented and verified against the required annual operational CII.This will then enable the operational carbon intensity rating to be determined on a scale of A, B, C, D or E, indicating a major superior, minor superior, moderate, minor inferior, or inferior performance level. The performance level will need to be recorded in the ship's Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP). A ship rated D or E for three consecutive years will need to submit a corrective action plan to show how the required index rating (C or above) will be obtained.This short-term measure aims to achieve the carbon intensity reduction aims of the IMO's initial GHG emissions strategy.
Marine Plastic Litter: Plastic pollution presents a significant threat to our ocean. It endangers marine life, damages ecosystems, threatens human health and livelihoods and contributes to climate change. Reducing the amount of plastic litter in the oceans is a shared responsibility and requires a collective effort. Reducing plastics the alternatives can provide ship owners with cost savings, reduce their CO2 emissions and contribute to seafarer well-being. The BIMCO task force on single-use plastics- industry leadership to support the BIMCO campaign The single-use plastics task force was formulated to explore relevant issues surrounding the reduction of single use plastics (SUP) onboard ships and to provide practical, on-the-ground insight that supports our industry campaign. 1>>Identify the barriers to reducing SUP onboard ships and highlight both existing and new ways to address those barriers to ensure the industry campaign is based on the best available knowledge and experience 2>>Support the design of data gathering mechanisms, for example surveys, in order to collect information from the shipping industry 3>> Inspire shipowners, operators and managers to take action and offer assistance as and when necessary 4>>Help stimulate new ideas related to SUP onboard ships, encourage creative shipping-led solutions and discuss ways on how best to develop new proposals
