ClassNK has issued Technical Information to inform about the Survey and Certification for EEDI and SEEMP required by the Amendments to ANNEX VI of MARPOL 73/78
Issuance of IEE Certificate
After completion of the Initial Survey, an IEE Certificate is issued for all ship of 400 gross tonnage and above engaged in international voyages. In the case where the Flag Administration has not ratified Annex VI of MARPOL 73/78, ClassNK will carry out the relevant surveys and issue a Document of Compliance on behalf of the Administration or a Statement of Compliance. The IEE certificate has no expiry date, since it will be valid throughout the life of the ship, except in cases where the certificate is rewritten or reissued.
Ships which are not required to keep an SEEMP on board (e.g. drilling rigs) are not required to be issued with an IEE Certificate.
Surveys for IEE Certificate
For an IEE Certificate, only an Initial Survey is carried out, in principle, and subsequent periodical surveys are not required. However, in cases where any of the following major conversions of the ship is conducted, it is necessary to carry out an Occasional Survey to verify the EEDI and to rewrite the IEE Certificate.
For new or existing ships, a major conversion regarded by the Administration as being equivalent to a newly constructed ship is carried out.
EEDI verification is conducted in accordance with “2014 Guidelines on survey and certification of the energy efficiency design index (EEDI)” (IMO Resolution MEPC.254(67), as amended) and “Industry Guidelines”, through two steps: preliminary verification at the design stage and final verification during sea trials.
In addition, if a ship is equipped with innovative energy efficiency technologies (e.g. air lubrication system, waste heat recovery system), relevant verification will be carried out in accordance with “2013 Guidance on treatment of innovative energy efficiency technologies for calculation and verification of the attained EEDI” (IMO MEPC.1/Circ.815).
