Monitor Your Fleet's Environmental Footprint
Some of the air emissions from ships are taxable, and many of our customers have requested the option of automating the reporting procedure to governments. Some are also very interested in monitoring their environmental footprint to be able to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. The synergies that can be achieved by implementing this as a module in Dataloy VMS are substantial because most of our customers already have the required data in the system for calculating air emissions.
Wide range of emissions can be calculated
This module will enable the calculation of the different kinds of air emissions generated from the main engine, generators and boilers on board. Both fuel and diesel oil (high and low sulphur) will generate emissions, and based on the various consumption figures we can calculate the amount of NOx, SOx and CO2 the vessel or fleet produces.
Getting Started Calculating Your Fleet's Air Emissions.
Most common types of emissions are already added in the system. So to get started calculating a vessels emissions you'll have to input the vessel's emission factor for the specified emission type (e.g. NOx) for each fuel type (e.g. Fuel Oil High Sulphur)
Vessel Emission Factors
Register each vessel/fuel type/emission type specific emission factor. So far you will have to register a separate factor for each fuel type even some of the factors are equal for some flue types / emission types.
All factors are registered in the Vessel Administration module. There are separate tabs for air emission factors and air emission fees.
E.g.
Factors for Ocean Voyager:
Fuel Type | NOx | CO2 |
|---|---|---|
FO | 0.3 | 3.2 |
FO LS | 0.2 | 3.2 |
DO | 0.3 | 3.2 |
DO LS | 0.25 | 3.2 |
Emission Fees
In some regions there are taxes for emitted pollution. Such a fee can be added in the system to automate calculation and reporting based on the actual emission and given schedule
Information about emission fees are registered in the General Master Data module.
Emission Types
Emission types are maintained by Dataloy, contact us if you need additional emission types.
At the moment the following types are supported by the system:
NOx
SOx
CO2
CO
PM
All types are calculated based on an emission factor per burned fuel of given type.
Example: 3.2 MT CO2 pr 1.0 MT of FO burned.
Reporting
Dataloy can offer help to develop reports that extract air emission data from the system.
Yearly fleet emission
Detailed voyage emission
Monthly/Quarterly reports (Prorated Emissions)
Official Emission Tax Reports (E.g. to Norwegian Customs for NOx emitted between Norwegian ports)
