Considerations for scrubber retrofitting
With only a couple of years to the 2020 enforcement for controlled sulfur emissions, shipowners will have to make the decision to either switch to low-sulfur marine fuel oil (LSFO) or install exhaust gas scrubbers (EGCS – Exhaust Gas Cleaning systems). Feature
Looking at current conditions of the industry and expected cost and availability

of low-sulfur marine fuel after two years, we expect many ship owners will consider the option to retrofit exhaust gas scrubbers for their active vessels.
WManager
Issue 1 - 2018

These are the top considerations (WSM) recommends before planning retrofit of exhaust gas scrubbers: Vessel Structure
Does your vessel’s structural design allow
for the installation of exhaust gas scrubbing equipment? The availability of space can limit and even hinder the type of exhaust
gas scrubbers you intend to install. In many cases, the funnel is modified extensively for a tailor made exhaust gas scrubber. For new buildings, the ship owner can select “scrubber ready” notation for easy retrofit in future.
Vessel Age And Size
With older vessels, there is less
payback time for investment of the
Feature
EGCS installation. For a very old vessel, it may be more economical to switch
to cleaner fuel alternatives. The payback
is also better for ships with high powered engines – it is not viable to plan retrofit for ships with low powered engines. A simple calculation can be carried out based on spread between cost
of LSFO and high-sulfur marine fuel
(HSFO), cost of exhaust gas scrubber including operating cost, annual fuel consumption, and residual ship life to justify your decision. Vessel Type
High public profile vessels, especially cruise and passenger types, are more scrutinized
than others for Green credentials. Such vessels spend more time in the Emission Control Area (ECA) Zone, so use of exhaust gas scrubbers
would provide immediate payback even before
1 January 2020. Much of the installation work in
passenger vessels can be accomplished during
regular commercial operations as the vessel can accommodate many workers during voyage. 4
WManager
Types Of Exhaust Gas Scrubbers Open loop scrubbers may be more
suitable for vessels performing long voyages compared to other types.
Closed loop scrubbers are uncommon and with low flexibility. Hybrid type
scrubbers appear to be a more popular
choice as they cope with most situations.
Market Conditions
If the vessel is not commercially active, return
of investment for the installation of EGCS may not be achieved.
Support And Maintenance
You will need to also consider reliable
manufacturers that can provide customer
and technical support to you after installation. Ask for the warranty period and their global
presence – especially at your trading patterns.
Modification Works
The retrofitting project is complicated
and work must be started well in advance.
Shipyards currently lack retrofit experience,
so a good project manager is recommended. A turnkey solution may also be considered. A typical exhaust scrubber retrofit can take 4-6 weeks in shipyard – excluding the
pre-planning design and engineering stages. However, very good project management
and preparation is required to achieve this. A complete exhaust gas scrubber installation
takes about one year from selection to
designing to engineering to procurement to docking and finally commissioning.

Scrubber Selection Considerations For Owners
After selecting the exhaust gas scrubber type, there are further details for shipowners to consider for every vessel.
Materials
And Corrosion
Exhaust gas scrubber units and the full system components face very corrosive products
at high temperature. Higher grade materials
have more resistance to oxidation, corrosion and high temperature. Hence, it is important to carefully assess materials offered by
makers – this includes the scrubber, pipes,
tanks, valves, coating systems, containment systems, monitoring equipment.
Electrical Loads
Additional electric power is required to run
sea water and process pumps. Other loads include possible exhaust fans, separators, dosing units, control processors, sensors and monitoring equipment. Assessment of available power is to be carefully
carried out under different conditions.
Installation Spaces
Depending on the complexity of the system, a vessel will have to be checked for funnel
modification, installation of deck compartment and modification of cargo hold.

Back Pressure
Some exhaust gas scrubber units may
produce back pressure. With increased back pressure, the engine needs to

Maintaining your IHM
News Update
Completing an Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM), is only the beginning of compliance. It is the ship owner’s responsibility to ensure continuous conformity of the Inventory.
12
WManager
Issue 1 - 2018
13
If you have completed the Inventory of Hazardous Material (IHM) process for your vessel,
congratulations you have completed an important step to future proof your vessel’s compliance to the following regulations: Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe
and Environmentally Sound
EU Ship Recycling regulations (SRR)
Recycling of Ships (2009)
To ensure you remain compliant to the regulations, you need to know the following: Is obtaining Statement of Compliance (SOC) mandatory?
If your vessel will be in service after completion of IHM survey, obtaining SOC from Class Society will be mandatory to remain compliance.
However, if the vessel transits directly to its recycling facility after IHM inspection, then there is no requirement for Class SOC.
News Update
How long is the SOC validity?
5 years. To renew, you will be required to provide your most recent IHM report and proof of documentation for IHM maintenance.
Who is responsible for maintaining the IHM process?
It is the ship owner’s responsibility for the maintenance of Part 1 of the IHM process during
the lifetime of the vessel. Continuity and conformity of the information should be confirmed, especially if the flag, owner or operator of the ship changes. When should the IHM maintenance process start?
As soon as any changes occur during vessel operations such as below, you are required to update Part 1 of IHM.
Renewal of spare parts list – that could potentially contain hazardous materials (PCHM)
Dry dock
Structural conversions or repairs
Machinery or equipment is added Hull painting
Do I need to be a certified Hazardous Material (HazMat) expert to execute the IHM maintenance process?
No, but you must have knowledge of indicative listing of hazardous materials in line with
European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) Guidelines & MEPC 269 (68). WSM recommends having a designated person (DP) responsible to maintain and update the Inventory. What are the available tools to support my inventory maintenance process?
Availability of tools are dependent on the class society that issued your vessel’s SOC.
Different class society would offer integrated software catered for IHM maintenance tracking. User license can be purchased for fleet or individual vessels through classification societies.
14
WManager
Here are some practical pointers when it comes to IHM maintenance of the inventory list. Review current approved IHM report. In particular, take note of the list of PCHM in the report.
Understand what can be potential
hazardous materials onboard. These
information are commonly available in Visual Sampling Check Plan (VSCP),
location diagram & approved IHM report. Identify purchase orders that could contain
potential hazardous materials. In particular, purchase orders related to:
Renewal of spare parts list – that
materials (PCHM)
could potentially contain hazardous Structural conversions or repairs Dry dock
Machinery or equipment is added Hull painting
In our experience, work relevant to insulation, gasket and break lining could contain hazardous materials.
Begin the data collection process for purchase
orders with potential hazardous materials. This
can be done by sending Material Declaration (MD) and Supplier’s Declaration of Conformity (SDoC) templates to your suppliers (Tier 1 suppliers). Analyze the MD and SDoC, and
update Part 1 of IHM if hazardous materials are found.
Send the updated Inventory to Class.
WSM recommends a monthly delivery to Class if there is any update on the Inventory list.

It is the Tier 1 supplier’s duty to provide MD and SDoC. The Tier 1 suppliers may request from their own suppliers (Tier 2 suppliers) for relevant information if they cannot develop the MD
based on the information available. Thus, the collection of data on hazardous materials may involve the entire supply chain.
WSM recommends keeping your Inventory a living document. To ensure the sustainability of
this effort, cooperation between the shipmaster, vessel manager/superintendent, procurement department and the DP is very important.

The Way To Digitalization
As we continue to develop our infrastructure both at shore and onboard, we must consider the requirements by our stakeholders at every level – including crew.
According to survey results, our crew look forward to new technologies that can help them work effectively and improve their welfare. We do not lose sight of human appeal in our roadmap to
digitalization. It is always our plan to incorporate the needs of our crew into the digital transition. Preparing Our Crew For New Technology
Seafarers must learn to adapt and adopt new environments. It is more important now than ever before to develop their critical thinking skills through our training programs.
Our in-house competence development team constantly evaluates training plans based on: Feedback from shipboard management review

IMPROVING HULL PERFORMANCE THROUGH IOT
Reducing fuel consumption and carbon emission is high on the agenda of most owners and charterers today. Through on-board sensors and technology, Wilhelmsen Ship Management (WSM) shows how it is done. There are many ways to reduce fuel usage and carbon emission. From the conventional way of hull cleaning and propeller polishing, to design modifications and renewable/alternate sources of energy, the industry is constantly evolving to achieve results. The question is: How can we prove real economic value?

is zero added resistance and vessel is “as new�. If the line hits 1.1 there is a 10% added resistance, and in simplified terms represents 10% added fuel consumption. As seen, a few days after a cleaning, there is a drop from 1.2 to close to 1.0.
As ship resistance measurement peaks, hull cleaning is planned and performed at the right timing and location. By doing this the right way and at the right time, we can help Owners/ Charterers save large amounts of fuel. It is evident in the diagram that by optimizing the timing of hull cleaning we were able to reduce fuel consumption of one vessel by 20%, which if for instance considering 30 tons HFO per day, equates to saving of US$1,800 per day (fuel cost ~300/ton).
