The INTERTANKO Tonnage Study as reflected in IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 March 2004
MARPOL Annex II Revisions • IMO Ship Type • The INTERTANKO Study • IMO Submission • Next Step
MARPOL Annex II Revisions • MEPC 49 approved revised version of MARPOL Annex II, final adoption is intended to take place October 2004 (MEPC 52) • Will take effect 1 January 2007 at the same time a new IBC/BCH code will be issued
MARPOL Annex II Revisions • Re-categorisation of the existing pollution categories within MARPOL Annex II has been a longstanding issue at IMO • Currently there exist 5 categories A, B, C, D and an Appendix III. (Appendix III lists products to which the IBC Code does not apply).
MARPOL Annex II Revisions • Due to the re-evaluation process of the existing MARPOL Annex II products by GESAMP/GHS, existing products will be re-categorised into a new 3 or 5-category system
MARPOL Annex II Revisions • At MEPC 49 a 3 + 1 category system (X,Y,Z + OS) was agreed upon. The forth category holds only 8 harmless products (Apple juice, Clay slurry, Coal slurry, Dextrose solution, Glucose solution, Kaoline slurry, Molasses, Water) • Vegetable oils will be specified and are upgraded from Appendix III (of the IBC Code) to Category Y and Z
MARPOL Annex II Revisions Why will vegoils move? • Flag states that have experienced pollution from legal discharges of these type substances on their shores • INTERTANKO’s role has been to monitor the proposals, keeping members informed and ensure that practical solutions are sought whilst ensuring that environmental protection remains a priority
MARPOL Annex II Revisions Why will vegoils move? • Products defined as "Floaters" and "Persistent floaters", which include the vegetable oils, will be assigned to Category Y. Under the currently defined ship typing criteria this will mean they have to be carried in IMO Type 2 or 3 space.
MARPOL Annex II Revisions • Oil like substances will not exist (e.g xylene requires chemical code certificate) • 75 litre stripping required for all tankers (Chemical Code/NLS) for keels laid after 1 January 2007 (Existing IBC ships 100 litres XY- 350 litres Z, existing NLS as good as possible)
IMO Ship Type What is considered IMO Type Space? • The IBC Code provides standards for the construction of three types of chemical tankers (Types 1, 2 and 3) • A Type 1 ship is a chemical tanker intended for the transportation of products considered to present the greatest overall hazard and Type 2 and Type 3 for products of progressively lesser hazards
IMO Ship Type IMO Type 2 Space A Type 2 tank is intended to transport products with appreciably severe environmental and safety hazards which require significant preventive measures to preclude escape of such cargo
IMO Ship Type IMO Type 2 Ship • Usually double-hull construction • A wide variety of tank sizes/capacities
IMO Ship Type IMO Type 2 Ship • Some or all tanks of stainless steel • Nitrogen for use as a blanket to exclude air from the tank when carrying cargoes prone to ignition at ambient temperatures
IMO Ship Type IMO Type 3 Ship • A Type 3 ship is a chemical tanker intended to transport products with sufficiently severe environmental and safety hazards • Require a moderate degree of containment to increase survival capability in a damaged condition
IMO Ship Type IMO Type 3 Ship • Those specified in the IMO IBC Code for a Type 3 ship are usually not listed as "hazardous" • They are petroleum products, such as gasoil, naphtha, and gasoline, if equipped with an oil/water separator with a suitable transfer pump
IMO Ship Type IMO Type 3 Ship • Damage stability and cargo containment requirements for Type 3 ships detailed in the IMO IBC Code • Cargo handling and pollution prevention provisions of MARPOL Annex II
THE INTERTANKO Study IMO BLG 8/6 Annex 6 IMO utilized BLG 8/6 Annex 6 to study the impact of 3 and 5 category sysytem on the vegertable oil trade Industry asked that INTERTANKO conduct an independent survey updating the information discussed in this original study
INTERTANKO Study IMO BLG 8/6 Annex 6 INTERTANKO used the same straight tonnage and demand parameters as used in BLG 8/6 Annex 6 During the course of the study it was evident that there existed a number of considerations that needed to be taken in to account when examining the capacity and demand avialable for the transport of of certain products after 1 January 2007
The INTERTANKO Study Primary Elements Reclassification World Trade Figures (Oil and Chemical) Type 2 Tonnage Availability
The INTERTANKO StudyReclassification MEPC/INF.24 - Consolidated List of GESAMP Hazard Profiles with Associated Pollution Categories and Ship Types), incorporating the provisional assessments made for vegetable oils in MEPC 49/11/4 (Outcome of GESAMP/EHS 39) Ship Type Criteria - based on GESAMP hazard profiles in table 4.5.1 of Annex 7 to MEPC 51/11 (Criteria for Assigning Carriage Requirements from Products Subject to the IBC code).
The INTERTANKO Study Sources of World Trade Information Chemical World Trade figures – Drewry 2003 seaborne trade is based on 1998 actual figures with projections from 1998-2003 based on percentage change of organic, inorganic and other chemicals Vegetable Oil world trade figures - : ISTA Mielke, GmbH - Oil World. (95% of import figures considered as seaborne trade)
INTERTANKO Tonnage Survey Type 2 Tonnage Study The fleet figures on IMO type 2 and 3 capacity are based on a collection of data on more than 1,100 ships operated by over 150 chemical and product tanker operators 0.55 multiplier utilized in BLG 8.6 when unable to utilize exact cargo tank information
INTERTANKO Tonnage Survey Type 2 Tonnage Study Data from Clarkson’s, Drewry, LR Fairplay Database and an exhaustive survey of world chemical fleet Until this study was completed this type of data on ship type for the majority of the worldwide chemical fleet was not readily available
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Submission MEPC 51/11/6 reflects: Surveyed over 1100 ships and over 150 owners/operators Calculated world trade figures using existing data Also takes into account other considerations
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Para 1 - Background 1.1 -Self Explanatory 1.2 - Purpose of the study and survey
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Survey Data , Assumptions and Comments Information on over 1100 ships asking for specific data on each ship in the survey. Exact data on approximately 80 percent of the tonnage recorded. INTERTANKO reviewed a number of models on voyages per year and decided upon an industry standard of 8 voyages per year (realizing that the number can vary considerably considering the area trading, type of trade and vessel type and size. In an attempt to be as pragmatic as possible, a conservative 20 percent slack was used.
Capacity 2007 – IMO type 2 tankers • Assumes veg oils+ reclassified to IMO2/3
Capacity 2007 – IMO type 2 tankers • Assumes all veg oils+ reclassified to IMO2
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Sources of Information Chemical World Trade Figures: The only complete information readily available within our time frame was Drewry’s info. The last full study was completed in 1998. The projections are based on a an analysis of this data.
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Sources of Information Vegetable Oil World Trade Figures INTERTANKO scoured ISTA, Mielke - Oil World. Seaborne trade for this information which is estimated at 95 percent of the import figures
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Sources of Information Big Movers This table was created after seeking confirmation from IMO and therefore utilizes approved GESAMP data It is the most up to date information on product reclassification.
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Tonnage Capacity Comments and Conclusion Explanation of the reclassification of products How much cargo will be reclassified for exclusive carriage in chemical tankers - 75 million tons 65 million tons will move from Annex I to Annex II Surplus of Type 2 and 3 tonnage
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Other Considerations INTERTANKO conducted a straight supply and demand analysis but documents do take into account the following: Time charter versus voyage charter considerations Specific carriage requirements for many different cargoes Trade route considerations Accelerated phase out and its effects
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Other Considerations (Continued) Tank coatings, stripping limits and requirements Last cargo requirements ( banned or acceptable) The use of vegoils as part of triangular trade
IMO Submission MEPC 51/11/6 Results of the Tonnage Availability Study Supply Item 1 - The numbers that we collected in our study Item 2 - Percent increase takes into account the phasing out of older tonnage This is considered a conservative estimate.

IMO SubmissionMEPC 51/11/6 The chemical tanker fleet (Type1,2,3) will collectively have exclusive access to 75 million tonnes of cargo in 2007 annually from 2007. The Annex I tanker fleet will lose access to about 65 m tonnes of Annex II cargo from 2007. Conclusion - nominal surplus of type 2 and type 3 tonnage from 2007.
MARPOL ANNEX II REVISIONS INTERTANKO Position Remains • A new 3-category (X,Y,Z) system will be simpler for industry, and simpler to implement by Port State Control. • The reclassification (in accordance with GESAMP) will be applied to either a 3 or 5 system is in place.
What do product tankers carry now (before 1 January 2007) • Clean Petroleum Products • Oil like substances (e.g. Cyclohexane, hexane, pentane, toluene, xylene) • Unregulated chemicals (e.g. Acetone, ethanol, fatty acid, slurry, latex, molasse, wax, vegoils, water)
