M/V CAPT STEFANOS Monitoring & Reporting Plan For The EU MRV Regulation Page 3

INTRODUCTION
In order to reduce CO2 emissions from shipping, the European Union has set up a system for
monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV system) of CO2 emissions based on the fuel
consumption of ships as a first step of a staged approach for the inclusion of maritime transport
emissions in the Union's greenhouse gas reduction commitment, alongside emissions from other
sectors that are already contributing to that commitment.

All intra-EU voyages, all incoming voyages from the last non-EU port to the first EU port of call and all
outgoing voyages from a EU port to the next non-EU port of call, including ballast voyages, are to be
considered relevant for the purposes of monitoring. CO2 emissions in EU ports, including emissions
arising from ships at berth or moving within a port, should also be covered, particularly as specific
measures for their reduction or avoidance are available.

The EU MRV system also covers other relevant information allowing for the determination of ships'
efficiency and for the further analysis of the drivers for the development of emissions. This scope
also aligns the EU MRV system with international initiatives to introduce efficiency standards for
existing ships (e.g. IMO’s data collection scheme), also covering operational measures, and
contributes to the removal of market barriers related to the lack of information.

In order to minimise the administrative burden for shipowners and operators, in particular for small
and medium-sized enterprises, and to optimise the cost-benefit ratio of the MRV system without
jeopardising the objective of covering a widely predominant share of greenhouse gas emissions from
maritime transport, the rules for MRV should only apply to large emitters. A threshold of 5 000 gross
tonnage (GT) has been selected after detailed objective analysis of sizes and emissions of ships going
to and coming from Union ports. Ships above 5 000 GT account for around 55 % of the number of
ships calling into Union ports and represent around 90 % of the related emissions. This non-
discriminatory threshold would ensure that that the most relevant emitters are covered. A lower
threshold would result in a higher administrative burden while a higher threshold would limit the
coverage of emissions and thus the environmental effectiveness of the MRV system.

The implementation of this regulation takes into account existing requirements and data already
available on board ships; therefore, companies are given the opportunity to select one of the
following four monitoring methods: the use of Bunker Fuel Delivery Notes, bunker fuel tank
monitoring on-board, flow meters for applicable combustion processes or direct emission
measurements.

A monitoring plan specific to each ship documents the choice made and provides further details on
the application of the selected method, during a specific reporting period.

The company being responsible for an entire reporting period over a ship performing shipping
activities is responsible for all monitoring and reporting obligations arising in relation to that
reporting period, including the submission of a satisfactorily verified emissions report.

In the event of a change of company, the new company will be responsible for the monitoring and
reporting obligations related to the reporting period during which the change of company has taken
place. To facilitate the fulfilment of these obligations, the new company should receive a copy of the
latest monitoring plan and document of compliance, if applicable.

The company honors its commitment to protect people and the environment by tracking and
analyzing energy consumption on vessels, using lessons learned and best practices, to improve

CHARTERWELL MARITIME S.A. Prepared by Tecnitas

energy efficiency while reducing emissions. It is the company’s policy that vessels are always
operated as efficiently as possible, consistent with safety and reliability.

This Monitoring Plan establishes procedures for CHARTERWELL MARITIME S.A. (hereinafter called
“the company”) to comply with Regulation (EU) 2015/757 of the European Parliament and of the
Council of 29 April 2015 on the monitoring, reporting and verification of carbon dioxide emissions
from maritime transport, and amending Directive 2009/16/EC.

This Monitoring plan is written according to Regulation (EU) 2016/1927 template and Regulations
(EU) 2016/1928 and (EU) 2016/2071 as guidance.

C.2. Monitoring of fuel consumption

As per MRV Regulation (EU) 2015/757, the company shall define which monitoring method is to be
used to calculate fuel consumption and ensure that once the method has been chosen, it is
consistently applied. Actual fuel consumption for each voyage shall be used and calculated using one
of the methods presented below. Any combination of those methods, once assessed by the verifier,
may be used if it enhances the overall accuracy of the measurement.

 Method A: BDN and periodic stocktakes of fuel tanks


This method is based on the quantity and type of fuel as defined on the BDN combined with
periodic stocktakes of fuel tanks based on tank readings. The fuel at the beginning of the period,
plus deliveries, minus fuel available at the end of the period and de-bunkered fuel between the
beginning of the period and the end of the period together constitute the fuel consumed over
the period.
The period means the time between two port calls or time within a port. For the fuel used
during a period, the fuel type and the sulphur content need to be specified.
This method shall not be used when BDN are not available on board ships, especially when cargo
is used as a fuel, for example, liquefied natural gas (LNG) boil-off.
Under existing MARPOL Annex VI regulations, the BDN is mandatory, is to be retained on board
for three years after the delivery of the bunker fuel and is to be readily available. The periodic
stocktake of fuel tanks on-board is based on fuel tank readings. It uses tank tables relevant to
each fuel tank to determine the volume at the time of the fuel tank reading. The uncertainty
associated with the BDN shall be specified in the monitoring plan.
Where the amount of fuel uplift or the amount of fuel remaining in the tanks is determined in
units of volume, expressed in litres, the company shall convert that amount from volume to
mass by using actual density values. The company shall determine the actual value by using the
density measured by the fuel supplier at fuel uplift and recorded on the fuel invoice or BDN.

 Method B: Bunker fuel tank monitoring on-board


This method is based on fuel tank readings for all fuel tanks on-board. The tank readings shall
occur daily when the ship is at sea and each time the ship is bunkering or de-bunkering.
The cumulative variations of the fuel tank level between two readings constitute the fuel
consumed over the period.
The period means the time between two port calls or time within a port. For the fuel used
during a period, the fuel type and the sulphur content need to be specified.
Fuel tank readings shall be carried out by appropriate methods such as automated systems,
soundings and dip tapes. The method for tank sounding and uncertainty associated shall be
specified in the monitoring plan.
Where the amount of fuel uplift or the amount of fuel remaining in the tanks is determined in
units of volume, expressed in litres, the company shall convert that amount from volume to
mass by using actual density values (specific reference is made to section C.2.6 - Method for
determination of density - of this monitoring plan).

 Method C: Flow meters for applicable combustion processes


This method is based on measured fuel flows on-board. The data from all flow meters linked to
relevant CO2 emission sources shall be combined to determine all fuel consumption for a
specific period.
The period means the time between two port calls or time within a port. For the fuel used
during a period, the fuel type and the sulphur content need to be monitored. The calibration
methods applied and the uncertainty associated with flow meters used shall be specified in the
monitoring plan.

CHARTERWELL MARITIME S.A. Prepared by Tecnitas


M/V CAPT STEFANOS Monitoring & Reporting Plan For The EU MRV Regulation Page 12

Where the amount of fuel consumed is determined in units of volume, expressed in litres, the
company shall convert that amount from volume to mass by using actual density values (specific
reference is made to section C.2.6 - Method for determination of density - of this monitoring
plan).

 Method D: Direct CO2 emissions measurement


The direct CO2 emissions measurements may be used for voyages and for CO2 emissions
occurring in ports located in a Member State's jurisdiction. CO2 emitted shall include CO2
emitted by main engines, auxiliary engines, gas turbines, boilers and inert gas generators. For
ships for which reporting is based on this method, the fuel consumption shall be calculated
using the measured CO2 emissions and the applicable emission factor of the relevant fuels.
This method is based on the determination of CO2 emission flows in exhaust gas stacks (funnels)
by multiplying the CO2 concentration of the exhaust gas with the exhaust gas flow.
The calibration methods applied and the uncertainty associated with the devices used shall be
specified in the monitoring plan.

C.2.1. Methods used to determine fuel consumption of each emission sources

In the table below the primary method used to calculate the fuel consumption - as described by the
MRV regulation - is presented.

Emission source Chosen methods for fuel consumption


Method A:
All sources
BDN and periodic stocktakes of fuel tanks

In the determination of fuel quantity consumed, the frequency of fuel tank readings should at least
be taken:
 Before bunkering
 After bunkering
 Upon departure from port
 Upon arrival to port

 Fuel tank readings are to be taken using the procedure described in Part C.2.2 of the present
plan. The Chief Engineer stores (See section C.2.5) the results and transmits, once available, the
relevant forms to the Captain.

 It is the Captain’s responsibility to transmit the above mentioned data to the company at his
earliest convenience using the DANAOS export package software.

 The above data transmitted from the vessel to the company regarding the fuel consumed per
voyage, for all voyages falling under the scope of the EU MRV regulations, are stored in the
DANAOS software database.
 Categorization of the voyages and relevant calculations are carried out automatically by the
DANAOS MRV module software.
 It is the Operator’s responsibility to ensure reception of the above mentioned data when
available.

C.2.6. Method for determination of density

 It is the Chief engineer’s responsibility to retain the BDN when the bunkering is completed.

In the rare case that the density value is absent in the BDN and it is not possible to use an accredited
fuel test laboratory for analysis, following densities @15C may be used based on ISO 8217:2012 table
for Residual and distillate Fuels (attached in the Annex I section):

 0.991 when using RME 180 or RMG 180/380/500/700


 0.89 when using DMA

CHARTERWELL MARITIME S.A. Prepared by Tecnitas


M/V CAPT STEFANOS Monitoring & Reporting Plan For The EU MRV Regulation Page 18

 0.9 when using DMB

 It is the Operator’s responsibility to justify the reason not being able to use an accredited fuel
test laboratory for analysis by making an entry in the “Remarks” section of Bunkering form
(found at the Annex I section of the present plan).

It is company policy to segregate bunkers to separate tanks and the density of the dominant fuel
source in the tank is taken into account. However in the event that similar fuel types (with the same
emission factor) with significantly different densities are mixed in a tank (a difference greater than
3% is considered significant):

 It is the Chief engineer’s responsibility to calculate the resultant density using form E (found at
the Annex I section of the present plan).
 It is also his responsibility to transmit the updated form E - when applicable - to the Captain.

 It is the Captain’s responsibility to transmit the above mentioned updated form to the company,
once available.

 It is the Operator’s responsibility to collect, once available and store the above mentioned form
transmitted from the vessel to the company.

It is the company’s decision to use density provided as shown in the table below:

C.2.7. Level of uncertainty associated with fuel monitoring

As per MRV Regulation (EU) 2015/757, “uncertainty” means a parameter, associated with the result
of the determination of a quantity, that characterises the dispersion of the values that could
reasonably be attributed to the particular quantity, including the effects of systematic as well as of
random factors, expressed as a percentage, and describes a confidence interval around the mean
value comprising 95 % of inferred values taking into account any asymmetry of the distribution of
values.

It is also important to mention that as per Regulation (EU) 2015/757, “to make monitoring easier, it is
appropriate to allow the use of default values for the level of uncertainty associated with fuel
monitoring”.

Based on the above the company will use the default values shown in the table below:

The above form can be used as follows:

 Using the observed sounding/ullage measurements (Bunkering form - found at the Annex I
section of the present plan) in the mentioned tank before fuel mixture and by applying
corrections from the vessel’s tank tables, calculate and input the INITIAL VOLUME value in the
relevant column.
 Using the observed sounding/ullage measurements (Bunkering form) after fuel mixture and by
applying corrections from the vessel’s tank tables, calculate and input the FINAL VOLUME value
in the relevant column.
 Input the DENSITY AT 15oC (FUEL NO 1) of the fuel existing in the mentioned tank, to the
relevant column.
 Input the DENSITY AT 15oC (FUEL NO 2) of the fuel to be transferred in the mentioned tank, to
the relevant column.
Both the above densities have been defined from the relevant BDNs.
 Calculate the FINAL DENSITY AT 15oC with the formula below:

(DFUEL1 × VFUELINITIAL ) + (DFUEL2 × (VFUELFINAL− VFUELINITIAL ))

Abstracts of Regulations: EU 2015/757, EU 2016/1927 & EU 2016/2071 regarding “Voyage”


and “Berth”

 All intra-Union voyages, all incoming voyages from the last non-Union port to the first Union
port of call and all outgoing voyages from a Union port to the next non-Union port of call,
including ballast voyages, should be considered relevant for the purposes of monitoring.
CO2 emissions in Union ports, including emissions arising from ships at berth or moving within a
port, should also be covered.
 Monitoring and reporting shall be complete and cover CO2 emissions from the combustion of
fuels, while the ships are at sea as well as at berth.
 ‘Voyage’ means any movement of a ship that originates from or terminates in a port of call and
that serves the purpose of transporting passengers or cargo for commercial purposes.
 ‘Port of call’ means the port where a ship stops to load or unload cargo or to embark or
disembark passengers; consequently, stops for the sole purposes of refuelling, obtaining
supplies, relieving the crew, going into dry-dock or making repairs to the ship and/or its
equipment, stops in port because the ship is in need of assistance or in distress, ship-to-ship
transfers carried out outside ports, and stops for the sole purpose of taking shelter from adverse
weather or rendered necessary by search and rescue activities are excluded.
 ‘Ship at berth’ means a ship which is securely moored or anchored in a port falling under the
jurisdiction of a Member State while it is loading, unloading or hotelling, including the time spent
when not engaged in cargo operations.
 Fuel consumption within ports at berth shall be calculated separately.
 The ‘berth-to-berth’ concept would provide more clarity and a harmonised approach to the
exact starting and ending point of voyages. This would refine the parameters used to monitor
the time spent at sea and distance travelled, as specified under points (a) and (b) of paragraph 1
of Part A of Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2015/757, and reflect industry practices.
 The distance travelled shall be determined from berth of the port of departure to berth of the
port of arrival and shall be expressed in nautical miles.
 The time spent at sea shall be calculated based on port departure and arrival information and
shall exclude anchoring.

complemented by the subjoined text: “this document (i.e. FAQ) was prepared by DG CLIMA and does
not commit the European Commission. Only the Court of Justice of the European Union is competent
to authoritatively interpret the Union law”.

 "Ship to ship" transfers carried out outside ports are covered by the Regulation as part of a
voyage calculated from the last port of call to the next port of call. Variations of cargo arising
from "ship to ship transfers" outside ports during a voyage should be taken into account. In
those cases a weighted average for cargo carried should be calculated and applied to the entire
voyage
 The expression "ports of call under the jurisdiction of a Member State" refers to ports of call
located on "EU territory", (in other words, to which EU law fully applies). Not all ports belonging
to an EU Member State are EU territories (see list below). For a voyage to be covered by the

the nine EU outermost regions (Açores, Madeira, Canarias, Guadeloupe, French Guyana,
Martinique, Mayotte, Saint Martin and Reunion), and also ports of call in Norway (except those
on Svarbald) and Iceland qualify as EU ports of call.
EEA Member States' Overseas Countries and Territories which do not qualify as EU ports of call:
