2. REQUIREMENTS “Collection and reporting of ship fuel oil consumption data”.
The regulation will apply to ships above 5000 GT on international voyages.
3. RINA’s ACTIVITIES
2. REQUIREMENTS
From 01 January 2019, all ships, to which this regulation applies, have to
comply with Regulation 22A of MARPOL Annex VI. This requires the collection
and reporting of, inter alia, fuel consumption, hours underway and distance
travelled for each calendar year (“fuel consumption data”).
The regulation 5 of MARPOL Annex VI, as amended, now reads at para.4.5:

“The Administration shall ensure that for each ship to which regulation 22A
applies, the SEEMP complies with regulation 22.2 of this Annex. This shall be

ensure the methodology and processes are in place prior to the beginning of
the ship's first reporting period. Confirmation of compliance shall be provided to
and retained on board the ship."

On successful verification of the amended SEEMP, the R.O. is to confirm the

compliance, in accordance with Reg. 5.4.5 of Marpol Annex VI.
When the Flag Administration or the R.O. (if authorised to do so by the Flag
Administration) has received from a ship and verified, in accordance with the
requirements, the fuel consumption data, will issue a Statement of Compliance
to the ship.
Each Statement of Compliance will remain valid for the duration of the calendar
year when it was issued and for the first five months of the next calendar year.
Finally the Flag Administration or the R.O. has to report the data to IMO in
accordance with the provisions of Regulation 22A of Marpol Annex VI.
The first reporting period will be the calendar year 2019.
Companies shall collect and report, for each ship above 5000 GT on
international voyages, the following data for each calendar year:
Fuel consumption, by fuel type, in MT

Methods used for collecting fuel consumption data
Distance travelled
Hours underway
Ships have to use a standard reporting format, as specified in the Resolution

MEPC 282(70). The parameters to be reported are:
Start date (dd/mm(yyyy)

End date (dd/mm(yyyy)
IMO number
Ship type
Gross tonnage (GT)
Net tonnage (NT)
Deadweight (DWT)
EEDI (if applicable) [gCO2/t nm]
Ice class (if applicable)
Power output (rated power) of main and auxiliary reciprocating
internal combustion engines over 130 kW (to be stated in kW).
Distance travelled [nm]
Hours underway [h]
Fuel oil consumption, by fuel type, in MT
Method used to measure the fuel oil consumption

3. RINA’s ACTIVITIES
RINA SERVICES S.p.A. is available upon request to conduct pre-verification

GAP-Analysis audits for shipping companies across the world. Conducting an
audit of company’s procedures and data against the requirements of the
Regulation will enable to close possible gaps and achieve well in time
compliance with the Regulation.
RINA will act as RO in conducting the verification of the SEEMP and of the data
to be reported, starting from now.
Some Flag Administrations impose the verification of the data report and the
subsequence submission to IMO be carried out by the R.O. who class the
vessels.
Some other Flag Administration will allow also other R.Os., independently if the
ships is classed by them or not.
Some other Administrations accept the same RO that has been already
appointed by the ship Owner as the verifier pursuant the EU Regulation
757/2015 that covers the same topic: Monitoring, Reporting and Verification of
carbon dioxide emissions from maritime transport.
In this respect RINA has been accredited as verifier by ACCREDIA, Italian

Accreditation Body.
To have more information concerning the above, and for any further assistance
and more clarification regarding the RINA services on the matter, your local
RINA Office of reference is available and ready to be contacted.
