Distance learning is a flexible, cost-effective way of studying without the need to take time off work or away from home COURSE PROGRAMME Introduction
to Energy Management and the International Response in Shipping Introducing key notions of energy sources and security, the impact of air emissions and the international response particularly in shipping. The aim of this module is to build a common vocabulary and understanding, starting by exploring notions such as externality, management and governance. The focus will then shift to energy and its use, particularly relating to social contexts, societal evolutions and our continued dependence on fossil fuels. Thereafter, air pollution and associated international responses will be examined, along with the rise of the concept of energy efficiency and the importance of energy management. The last part of the module focuses on the response to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions in the shipping industry, including MARPOL Annex VI and its chapter on energy efficiency. • Important notions relating to energy • Energy sources and focus on fossil fuels • Energy security • Energy type: a social choice • Energy management principals, policies and their rationale • Impacts of air emissions: local pollution to global climate change • The international response to air pollution (IPCC, UNFCCC, the Kyoto Protocol etc.) • Shipping community response to air emissions control • Promotion of energy efficiency in shipping • Energy efficiency policy and the International Maritime Organization (IMO) • MARPOL Annex VI
Energy
Efficiency and Ship Design Fuel consumption in ship design and operation has been widely studied over the years by ship owners and operators, and a complete ship energy system design is presented in this module including pertinent IMO regulations. Both ship resistance and propulsion are reviewed to establish principles of ship powering in the context of energy efficiency improvement methodologies. Design approaches and technologies are assessed for applicability to different vessel types. Ship main and auxiliary engines, energy consumers and their interactions including renewable energy devices are also reviewed. Ship energy efficiency is considered not only for the sea voyage but also for the port approach and port operations in addition to special conditions such as shallow water and river transport. A probabilistic ship life-cycle approach is employed to measure the effects of ship design and energy efficiency improvements. Guidelines and interpretations of IMO’s work on ship energy efficiency through the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) are appraised, and the issue of shipboard emissions is examined from the ship design perspective. • Ship design and energy efficiency • Frictional and viscous resistance reduction − Paints, roughness reduction methods, air lubrication − Hull form optimisation for wave resistance reduction • Ship propulsion improvement designs − Pre-swirl, propeller and post-swirl • Ship construction and shipboard equipment • Energy efficient ship design for life-cycle considerations • Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) • Energy efficiency and shipboard emissions • Retrofitting
Energy
Efficient Ship Operations Optimal ship operation provides by far the greatest opportunities for energy-saving and CO2 reduction. Achieving this depends on a number of stakeholders, from charterers and port operators to ship owners and managers. Also, there are binding legal contracts that need to be observed. All these impose constraints and create barriers to the most efficient operation of ships. This module considers key topics; from management to legal and commercial issues; from just-in-time and virtual arrival to slow steaming and relevant technical and legal constraints; from weather routing to e-navigation and advanced communication systems; and from ballast water to trim optimisation and the all important port operation. • Ship management, legal aspects and energy efficiency − Shipping contracts − Contractual, legal and regulatory frameworks − Commercial requirements − Role of industry stakeholders − Key drivers and barriers • Fleet optimisation − Economics of ship operation − Ship capacity utilisation − Ship speed reductions − Reduced ballast and non-productive voyages − Bunker procurement and ship logistics for optimum operation − Dry docking aspects • Ship loading management − Just-in-time (JIT) operation and virtual arrival (VA) − Ship operation profile, analysis and impact of waiting times − Port exhaust emissions − VA concept, practices and requirements • Slow steaming − Analysis of ship speed, power and fuel consumption − Economic and contractual aspects − Technical issues and best industry practices • Weather routing and e-navigation − Historical background to weather routing, relevant tools and major service providers − Use of modern digital and communication systems for optimal ship handling and routing • Trim optimisation − Science and physics of trim and ship fuel consumption − Model tests, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis, trim guidance matrices, relevant tools and importance of masters’ experience and practices • Ballast water management − Ship ballast requirements − IMO guidelines − Ship loading to ensure stability and safety − Optimal ballast and best practice • Port operation and green ports − Loading and unloading practices − Impacts on ship fuel consumption and port emissions − Cargo and ballast planning − Green ports initiatives − Onshore power supply (cold ironing) − Relevant regulations, standards and current practices
Energy
Management On-board Ship The proper management and maintenance of various ship-board systems and technical assets represents an important opportunity for greater energy efficiency and reduced costs. Most of these measures are under the control of the ship owner and/or operator and can therefore be relatively easy to implement. This module deals with ship-board activities and their impact on fuel consumption, with particular focus on the optimal performance of technical systems and machinery.

Alternative
Fuels and Marine Renewable Energy The maritime community has been looking for fuel alternatives due to its volatile prices and stringent regulations on emissions. A few Emissions Control Areas (ECAs) have already been introduced by the IMO and numerous mandatory regulations have come into force for air pollutants and energy efficiency. This module will explore how new fuelling options and renewable energy could be promising for the future of the shipping industry. MARPOL Annex VI, in particular Chapters 3 and 4, are thoroughly explained as well as ECAs. (Retrofitting) options such as LNG or emissions abatement technologies, for the ships spending their trading lives in ECAs, will also be covered. The principal alternative fuels will be examined in detail. Alternative fuels will be discussed in a holistic and comparative way where Maritime State-of-the-Art is presented.
