Guide on the Best Practice for Tanker Performance Monitoring
Year: 2020 Language: English Author: Intertanko Genre: Practical guide Publisher: Intertanko Edition: 1st edition Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 128 Description: This Guide contains a valuable set of principles that set out the approaches adopted in ISO standards, regulatory framework reshaping the industry and the best practices relating to ship performance monitoring. It will assist INTERTANKO Members in understanding the complexities of the subject, formulating their respective policies and implementing associated industry standards, rules and regulations that are suitable to their economic, social and environmental circumstances. The WG finalized the development of the Guide on 28 August 2020, and it was approved by the INTERTANKO Safety & Technical Committee (ISTEC) on 21 September 2020. It will be later expanded and updated as necessary. As Chairman of the WG, I would like to encourage all Members of INTERTANKO to promote better and wider understanding of vessel performance monitoring because the subject requires a degree of understanding in theoretical background of ship design, operation and maintenance, effectiveness of various energy saving devices and their limitations. The WG attempted to bridge many gaps between design and maintenance, and theory and practice, bringing the border between industry standards and the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO’s) greenhouse gas (GHG) policy at close-in range. INTERTANKO Members wish to express sincere thanks to all participants and particularly to the tireless work of the Secretary of the WG, Gil-Yong Han, without whose project leadership this guideline would never have been published. Additional info: In the 1980s, ship performance monitoring was given a low priority despite its “relative” importance. Noon reports were still on telex, GPS data was not properly evaluated, and radars were kept switched off to avoid costly repair and complaints from companies. Once fax replaced telex, the initial idea involved building up a comprehensive noon report with machinery and weather data trying to evaluate hull and propeller fouling conditions and machinery performance. With the advent of an email communication system, noon reports became an excel file and data was ready to be analyzed despite inherent difficulties. A very similar format of the noon report is still in use 20 years later.
