Going green with Virtual Arrival OCIMF and INTERTANKO have launched Virtual Arrival, a concept designed to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, creating operational efficiency, cost reductions and better environmental friendliness

Better environment, lower cost With around 70,000 operating vessels, the shipping industry is responsible for transporting 90 per cent of the world’s trade. A GHG study published by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) in 2009 shows that nearly three per cent of overall global CO2 emissions per year are generated by the shipping industry. SOx and NOx emissions arising from combustion of marine fuels also contribute to local air pollution. Around 75 per cent of tanker emissions come from propulsion, and speed is the most significant factor affecting emissions, which rise exponentially – twice the speed equals four times the emissions. Trials implementing the Virtual Arrival scheme have reduced a vessel’s fuel consumption and consequent CO2 emissions by, on average, around 15 per cent, and in some cases by up to 22 per cent. As Garry Hallett, deputy director OCIMF, notes, there is “25 million tons of CO2 saving potential across the industry.” The actual savings depend on the length of the voyage, the time frame within which the Virtual Arrival concept has been adopted, vessel fuel consumption, weather and bunker price. Trials that have adopted the concept have reportedly harvested economies of $ 5,000 up to over $ 100,000. Such a project also fits well with current European policy, with the European Commission having recently published a White Paper on the Future of Transport stipulating that CO2 emissions from maritime transport in the EU should be cut by 40 per cent by 2050 compared to 2005 levels. “In light of the global sustainable mobility race, the launching of Virtual Arrival (is) undoubtedly one of many significant steps in curbing maritime transport emissions,” said Siim Kallas, EU Transport Commissioner. “Virtual Arrival proves the maritime sector is capable of delivering effective and global solutions to reduce emissions while maintaining technology leadership and economic sustainability.” “We have to improve the environmental footprint of shipping whilst retaining its competitiveness, it is therefore necessary to merge business interests with GHG reduction.” Although the Virtual Arrival concept was brought on by concerns about the environmental impact of the shipping industry,
The project’s calculations of the differences between normal voyages and those applying the Virtual Arrival concept have shown significant savings in fuel, and in resulting emissions

steaming at a slower speed can directly result in reduced bunker fuel usage. So far between 40 and 50 voyages have been undertaken using the Virtual Arrival concept, all of which are claimed to have been successful. As already noted, field trials have resulted in bunker consumption savings of 15 per cent on average. With fuel representing 60-80 per cent of operational costs, substantial economies are anticipated. In order to calculate the realised savings, a post-voyage analysis report needs to be issued. This should cover information on vessel performance and calculations on fuel saved. The calculation of the bunker savings is based on a simulation of the hypothetical fuel consumption had the vessel completed the passage on the basis of the contracted speed. This data will be compared to the actual fuel consumption under the slower speed, agreed upon under the Virtual Arrival concept.
Capitalising on congested ports The Virtual Arrival concept aims to create benefits out of congestion at ports and to minimise potential waiting times at anchor. It is therefore necessary that a delay at the port of discharge has been established. Without this proven delay Virtual Arrival does not come into use. Delays can be caused by congestion at the berth or by lack of receiving space. Upon learning of an upcoming delay the port of discharge, either via ship agent, master of the vessel, or in the case of tankers, the oil operator, the charterer and ship owner have the option to agree on implementing Virtual Arrival. This means that the ETA and contracted speed are mutually revised. A new adapted ETA, the Required Time of Arrival (RTA), has to be agreed on, in which other parties such as cargo

receivers, terminals and commercial interests may be involved. Learning of berthing availabilities as early as possible ensures the maximum benefit from the Virtual Arrival concept, hence early communication with the next port is essential. The implementation of the Virtual Arrival concept requires the charterer and ship operator to agree on an amendment of the charter party, which contains the contracted speed, the ETA and the RTA, typically subject to availability of the required facilities at the discharge port. Moving outside of an agreed charter party is a significant step for the involved parties and not lightly undertaken. Ideally, the ship owner and charterer will have initially agreed on a charter party clause that pre-establishes the terms for implementing Virtual Arrival. To promote the conclusion of an agreement and to reduce the risk of post-fixture disputes it is deemed vital that the key questions of the Virtual Arrival agreement are clearly addressed and sufficiently negotiated. The Virtual Arrival agreement will include a number of disputable issues, with optimum speed prominent among these. Its calculation largely depends on the employed methodology for calculating the voyage data and takes into account key factors such as vessel performance. The parties have to agree on who will be in charge of establishing the optimum speed, and especially whether an independent expert such as a Weather Analysis Service Provider (WASP) is to be used. Essential for commercial considerations is the difference between the hypothetically used fuel at contract speed and the fuel actually used under the adjusted Virtual Arrival speed – in short, the fuel saving. Importantly, the involved parties will further have to agree on who bears possible expenses and how the benefits of Virtual Arrival, such as direct cost sav-
