Liberia Maritime Authority published a Marine Operations Note, reminding all shipowners and operators that from 2019, each ship of 5,000 gross tonnage and above should collect fuel consumption data for 2019 and each subsequent calendar year or portion thereof.
Operators should describe in the ships Ship Energy Efficiency Management (SEEMP) Plan Part II the methodology that will be used for collecting and reporting the vessel’s fuel data. This must be verified as compliant on or before 31 December 2018, as required under Regulation 22.2 of MARPOL Annex VI.

In addition, operators should submit their vessels SEEMP Part II to authorized classification societies or non-classification society verifiers. After verification, the Administration will provide a Confirmation of Compliance, which must be kept on board the ship.
