SEEMP implementation check

Answer

For SEEMP implementation check, as Chief Engineer I will verify that the measures written in the SEEMP are actually being followed onboard, not just that the document is available.

I will check:

• Approved SEEMP Part I, II and III, as applicable.
• Actual implementation of energy-efficiency measures such as:
  • optimum speed/RPM,
  • trim optimization,
  • weather routing,
  • hull/propeller cleaning,
  • engine performance monitoring,
  • auxiliary machinery optimization.
• Fuel-consumption data against BDN, tank soundings, flowmeters, noon reports and logbooks.
• Proper implementation of IMO DCS under SEEMP Part II.
• Under Part III, check progress of the 3-year CII implementation plan.
• Monitor Attained CII vs Required CII and expected A–E rating.
• Check objective evidence: PMS records, performance reports, cleaning records, calibration records and CII calculations.
• If targets are not achieved, carry out self-evaluation and corrective action.

As Chief Engineer I will check SEEMP implementation by comparing the approved SEEMP measures with actual onboard practices. I will verify fuel-consumption data, engine performance, speed and voyage optimisation, trim, hull and propeller condition, auxiliary consumption and maintenance records. For Part III, I will check progress against the ship-specific three-year implementation plan and continuously monitor attained CII against required CII. I will verify objective evidence such as logbooks, noon reports, DCS records, PMS and fuel records. If the measures are not giving the expected result, I will carry out self-evaluation, identify the cause and revise or strengthen the action plan.”
