Fuel oil quality: Regulation 18 (cont.)

► Bunker delivery notes are to be kept onboard the ship for a period of 3 years after the fuel oil has been delivered onboard.

► The bunker delivery note shall be accompanied by a representative sample of the fuel oil delivered. The sample is to be kept onboard until the fuel oil is substantially consumed , but in any case for at least 12 months from the time of delivery.

► Guidelines for the sampling are given in Resolution MEPC.96(47).



Fuel oil quality: Regulation 18 (cont.) BV Surveyor action

► Should be limited to the verification of the bunker delivery note to check the sulphur content of the fuel oil used when the ship operates in SOx emission control areas.


1 - General

► “NOx” means NO and NO2, which are formed during fuel combustion.

► NOx emissions from diesel engines only are considered. NOx emissions from marine diesel engines account for approximately 17% of global NOx emissions produced by fuel combustion.

► Other sources are considerably lower (about 2 g/kWh for boilers and 5 g/kWh for gas turbines vs. 10 to 15 g/kWh for diesel engines).

► NOx has harmful effect on the environment (acidification, formation of ozone, adverse health effects).

NOx emission compliance


2 – NOx-influencing parameters

NOx emissions are influenced by the combustion process. When the combustion temperature and duration increase, the amount of NOx formed increases. Higher peak pressure and compression ratio result in higher NOx emission levels. NOx-influencing parameters include:

Injection parameters (timing, nozzle, pump, fuel cam, injection pressure for common rail systems).

Combustion chamber (cylinder head, piston, cylinder liner, compression ratio, valve timing).

Charge air system (turbocharger, charge air cooler).



2 – NOx-influencing parameters (cont.)

Equipment to reduce NOx emissions:

Direct water injection

Charge air humidification

Emulsified fuel (fuel / water emulsion)

Exhaust gas recirculation

Selective catalytic reduction (injection of urea solution)

Purpose : after the pre-certification of the engine, determine to what extent the engine has been subjected to further adjustments and / or modifications which could affect the NOx emissions. See NOx Technical Code, § 2.3.2.

Scope of the inspection : check the possible modifications undergone by the engine further to the pre-certification by means of the methods allowed by the Code, § 2.1.2:

► On-board engine parameter check method

► On-board simplified measurement method






On-board engine parameter check method

(see NOx Technical Code, Chapter 6)

This method includes:

1. A document inspection of engine parameters (record book) to check that they are within the allowable range specified in the engine Technical file.

Engine parameters include NOx-influencing components and settings, and operating values (like cylinder peak pressure, exhaust gas temperature) which are related to the NOx emission performance.



On-board engine parameter check method (cont.)


► The record book of engine parameters contains the description of all changes affecting the engine parameters, adjustments, parts replacements or modifications.

► The record book is to be kept available on board together with the Technical File and On-board NOx verification procedures.






2. An inspection of engine components and adjustable features in addition to the documentation inspections. It shall be verified that the adjustable features are within the allowable range specified in the Technical File.

► The surveyor can check one or all of the components, settings or operating values.

► Where adjustments / modifications have been made, the surveyor has to check that they fall within the approved range as specified in the Technical File.





3. Where the adjustments / modifications fall outside the approved range, the situation is that of a “substantial modification” and complete NOx measurement are normally required.


On-board simplified measurement method


This method is derived from the procedure for NOx emission measurements on a test bed. Main simplifications are:

HC measurements not required.

Engine torque may be estimated by means other than direct measurement (voltage / amperage measurement for generating sets, propeller curve with engine speed measurement).

For the fuel consumption, the results from the test bed measurements can be used.




On-board simplified measurement method (cont.)

(see NOx Technical Code, Chapter 6.3)

Less parameters to be measured

Test fuels: heavy fuel oil of RM-grade according to ISO 8217, 1996, may be used.

Deviations from the engine load points corresponding to the concerned test cycle can be considered.

Allowances from 10% to 15% of the applicable NOx limit will be applied.


3rd step: periodica l surveys onboard

► Periodical surveys will have to be carried out at intervals specified by the flag administration, but not exceeding 5 years.

► One intermediate survey is to be carried out during the period of validity of the IAPP Certificate. See MARPOL Annex VI, reg. 5 (c).




3rd step: periodica l surveys onboard


Scope of the periodical surveys onboard

Scope of the inspection : similar to the initial survey, i.e. check the possible modifications undergone by the engine further to the previous on-board survey.

Method of survey : According to the Code, § 2.1.2:

On-board engine parameter check method (already described)

On-board simplified measurement method (already described)

On-board direct measurement and monitoring method



Direct measurement and monitoring method

This method is described in IMO Resolution MEPC.103(49):

Guidelines for on-board NOx verification procedure – direct measurement and monitoring method

This method is similar to the test bed measurement method and simplified measurement method.

It involves the installation of a fixed or portable emissions measurement / recording system, allowing a continuous or intermittent monitoring.

The measurement / recording system should be type-approved by BV.

No Direct measurement and monitoring systems approved to date.




Direct measurement and monitoring method (cont)

► Analysers are to be checked and adjusted in accordance with the NOx Technical Code.

► The main difference in comparison with bed and simplified measurement method is that different combinations of weighting factors can be used, depending on the test cycle considered. See Appendix 2 of the Resolution.

► To demonstrate compliance with the NOx Technical Code, the data are to be taken during the last 30 days. Data may have been collected in several occasions when the engine load corresponds to that required by the Resolution.

► Data are to be retained on-board for at least 3 months.




► An on-board monitoring manual is to be submitted to BV for approval.

► The surveyor will check:

The data obtained from the measurements (may be presented in electronic format)

The measuring equipment, including checking and adjustment are in accordance with the manual.

► Of course, there will be no attendance of the Surveyor to the measurements.




► Main benefits of the direct measurement and monitoring method are for the owner:

It allows a continuous record of the engine emissions

It does not require any disruption of the vessel operations

It reduces survey fees!
