Voyage Efficiency for CII Compliance
CII turns voyage decisions into a rating with commercial consequences. This conference session looks at how voyage efficiency — speed, routing, and operational choices — feeds the Carbon Intensity Indicator, and what operators can actually influence.
A session from the BS Group virtual conference, presenting StormGeo's approach to the IMO's Carbon Intensity Indicator under the title "CII — A Game Changer for the Shipping Industry."
What the talk covers
- Why CII matters: from 2023 it rates cargo and cruise ships over 5,000 GT from A to E on grams of CO₂ per capacity-mile, with targets tightening every year toward 2030 — and unlike the one-off EEXI, it's judged on actual operation, annually.
- Built on data you can trust: a continuous-improvement cycle on three pillars — optimal data quality, better decisions through digital tools, and expert support.
- Know where you stand: dashboards showing required vs attained AER, a daily rolling-average CII that surfaces trends, and the MEPC 78 voyage exclusions.
- Predict before you pay: next-voyage, end-of-year, and redelivery simulators — the end-of-year one models the exact rating you'll submit to verifiers, so action can be taken in time.
- CII is a management decision: no single department can tackle it alone — and never let the vessel foul, given the cost, emissions, and compliance impact.
