High Accuracy Bunker Blending

When delivering bunkers, it is important both to deliver the correct quality as well as a well defined quantity.

Bunker fuel is priced per tons and many factors can influence the readings of traditional volumetric flow meters, such as density, temperature, viscosity etc.

The density of heavy fuels can vary up 150 kg/m3.

Deliver the correct quantity:The Insatech Marine Bunker Blending solution uses flow meters based on the Coriolis principle which give a direct measurement of mass and density.

Deliver the correct quality:The Insatech Marine Bunker Blending solution ensures delivery of any viscosity using the minimum but correct amount of gas oil. Always meeting the ISO 8217 requirements.

Documentation:Both quantity and quality of the delivered product is documented in an automatic bunker report.

Certification:The system can be supplied according to MID Annex MI-005 and OIML R117-1 certified (Custody transfer).

Features• Direct measurement in metric tons (vacuum)• Direct actual density measurement• Direct temperature measurement• Online calculation of Density15 (actual and average)• Online calculation of Viscosity50

MID Approval (Custody transfer)The Measuring Instruments Directive (MID) is a European directive (2004/22/EC) that covers a number of different measuring instrument types.The MID enables a ’European type approval certificate’ to be issued. MID includes codes of practice as to approval procedures, market control as well as type and marking of the instruments.With the constantly rising fuel prices there is an increasing demand for accurate measurement of the delivered quantity when bunkering. With MID approval you get:• Certified accurate measurement• No more discussions of delivered quantity• Possibility of manipulating measurement results

drastically reduced

Sulphur blendingTo comply with Marpol annex VI, new rules on limitation of sulphur content in HFO apply. These requirements can be met by blending to a pre-defined sulphur content optimising the use of the more expensive components.The requirement is to be able to blend oil in different qualities based on sulphur values.• Blending ratio from 0,1 to 3,5% sulphur• In-line measurement• Blending while delivering • Full documentation of delivered quality + quantity

The Insatech approach to developing an effi cient Performance Management – A practical approach that is ”proven in use”

Performance Management Planning• Establishing a good and repeatable baseline is the key for implemen-

tation of Performance Management

• Define the requirements for data acquisition, ensuring the system is expandable to handle all future requirements

• Defi ne how data will be transferred from the vessel, data safety requirements, storage and use at HQ

• Minimize crew involvement i.e. automate data acquisition and transfer

• Start with ”the low hanging fruit”, i.e. the largest energy consumers on board.

Defi ning a good baseline• One approach is to use design documents or sea trial data

if these have the necessary values

• Main energy consumers are: main engine(s), electrical production and boilers

• Define an operational profile including Routing (plan and weather), Trim, cargo operations, autopilot use etc.

The optimal solution for measuring fuel flow• Use a Coriolis massflowmeter that can handle

the vibrations and flow pulsations (not all designs can)• Pipe stress is a challenge for some types• Uncertainty of a Rotamass system is:

0,1% of actual value• Density output can be monitored for alarming

of ”cappuccino effect” in fuels.

Performance Management

Operator panel. Speed test - graphic.

EEOI – an IMO requirement – CO2 emissions.

Fuel consumption vs. speed.

Mileage per ton fuel vs reference.

Fuel consumption in real time.

Data Acquisition• Use industrial grade systems that can handle the tough

environment found on board

• Challenges: Vibration, quality of power supply, ambient atmosphere, expandability

• Data collection speeds vary greatly, e.g. wave monitoring needs higher speed than COG

• Interconnectivity to other systems, e.g. navigation systems (NMEA)

• Access to reports/KPI’s on board is a must

• Data compression and encryption to save costs.

Advantages of the Insatech Performance Management Data Acquisition system• Minimises necessary data volumes without losing crucial

details. Event based detailing

• Open Industrial system for ease of integration to existing systems

• Built in Report functions

• Encrypted data – Read only format

• Modular and expandable

• Manual inputs and local operator interfaces.

Key Performance Indicators - KPI’s• We recomend the use of KPI’s as the base for easy

comparison of performance

• Use KPI’s to influence on board behaviour as well as for monitoring performance degradation

• Easy access to KPI’s with a strong graphic presentation, and warning/alarms can ensure due diligence on board.

KPI main groups• Main engine performance (g/bkWh)

• Aux. engine performance (g/bkWh)

• Vessel performance:- Thrust/displacement (if available)- Fuel consumption (kg/NM/ton)- Electrical power consumption per area- Vessel Trim especially in Ballast mode.

Overview of all relevant KPI’s providing decision support• Buffer time, idle time• Speed / RPM divation

• Propeller & Hull maintenance

• Weather effect

• Lube oil consumption

• Fuel statistics / Bunker

• Fuel alerts

• Anti-fouling evaluation

• Speed / consumption prediction, speed optimization

• Engine efficiency, engine utilization and optimizing

• Energy profiles

• Voyage optimization

• Operational profiles

• Warnings and triggers

• Environmental statistics & EEOI.

Speed Tests• We suggest the use of predefined speed tests where

the following factors are included:- Displacement (wetted surface area and wind exposure)- Wind speed, True and Relative (wind resistance)- Rudder activity- Defined minimum run times to ensure repeatability.

Continous improvement is necessary• Define/understand -> Measure -> Action/Change -> Evaluate

-> New Target

• On board tools using real time consumption and performance figures against targets

• ”Drill down” functionality for main units or consumers.

• Power generation vs actual use and safety factors

• EEOI (Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator) tons CO2 / transport work – see IMO guideline

• EPI

• Costs

• Bunker composition

• Fuel costs and quality

• Selected fuel.

Do You Operate Vessels in Emission Control Areas?

In order to meet the requirements of MARPOL Annex VI Insatech has developed the S3 Smart Sulphur Switch (S3) solution.

These are the regulations for emissions of sulphur stipulated in MARPOL Annex VI1 for marine transportation in and outside ECAs (Emission Control Areas) in North America, the Caribbean, Baltic and North Seas:

Outside an ECA Inside an ECA3.50% m/m on and after 1 January 2012

1.00% m/m on and after 1 July 2010

0.50% m/m after 1 January 2020

0,10% m/m on and after 1 January 2015

1The MARPOL Annex VI only stipulates requirements concerning SOx and particulate emissions. However, monitoring Sulphur in the fuel line of the vessel also ensures that the requirements stipulated in MARPOL Annex VI are met.

S3 Smart Sulphur Switch

Compared to other solutions S3 TM provides great savings for your company By reducing consumption of the more expensive low Sulphur MGO, eliminating the use of chemicals and minimizing investments, as well as downtime during installation the S3 will provide great savings.

In comparison to other solutions e.g. installing a Gas Scrubber the S3 has far lower investment and running costs.

Furthermore, by installing the S3 you also ensure that the require-ments stipulated in MARPOL Annex VI are met.

Features:

• Onboard blending of fuel to the required sulphur content.

• Blending of 2 fuels from 0 to 3,5% sulphur. Switch of fuel just on the ECA borders saving expensive fuel.

• Regardless of what fuel is in the tank, it can always be mixed and adjusted to the desired sulphur content.

• The price for a S3 Smart Sulphur Switch is less than 5% of the price of a complete scrubber solution.

• Operating expenses are less than 0.1% of the operating costs of a scrubber.

• Cost of maintenance is limited to one annual calibration.

• Small footprint, low weight and minimum piping.

• The ship is only out of service for a short period of time (2-3 hours) for installation.

• Savings in fuel costs alone give a ROI of 6-12 months.

• Monitoring the sulphur content of the fuel line within limits stipulated in MARPOL Annex VI.

• Recording and reporting nett fuel consumption, sulphur con-tent, density, and the vessels position (optional).

• No problems with disposal of chemicals.

• Stored data is encrypted and password protected.

• Integration with the vessels SEEMP system.

Real time logging of vessel position and sulphur content in the fuel. Accurate mass flow measurements gives you accurate fuel consumption fi gures.

SavingsAs an example: on a ship with a consumption of 24 ton/day, the daily cost of running solely on MGO is close to 21600 $

Using the S3 Smart Sulphur Switch a HFO (3,5% Sulphur) is mixed with MGO (0,1% Sulphur) and thereby reducing the amount of expensive MGO used with more than 6 tons/day

Calculations are based on a cost of 600 $/ton for HFO and 900 $ for MGO.

S3 Smart Sulphur Fuel Switch• Only two types of fuel necessary on board – one low sulphur and

one high sulphur – irrespective of the vessels destination

• High flexibility when mixing fuels

• Burn the cheapest fuel possible

• Easy retrofit.

Low investment cost and running costs• ROI in only 6-12 months.

Challenges on existing vesselsIf there is only two oil tanks on the ship it can be challenging to store oil with diffent sulphur content. It can also be diffi cult to acquire HFO with sufficiently low sulphur content that complies with the applicable requirements of the ECA, the vessel is heading to. In fact you need 3-4 tanks for an optimal solution.

Furthermore, it requires the possibility to rapidly switch between different fuels in order to always use the lowest permissible blend when the ship sails from the open sea to coastal areas to ports.

Vessels choosing to install a Gas Scrubber solution faces some or all following challenges. First of all the Gas Scrubber is costly - the price for a S3 is less than 5% of the price of a complete Gas Scrubber solu-tion. Adding to this, the Gas Scrubber is bulky, often requires installa-tion of a complex piping system, and the ship is out of service for an extended period during installation.

NMEA2MODB

The NMEA2MODB is an Ethernet-based versatile I/O- unit, which can be used in various monitoring and control applications. The unit is designed to be particularly suitable for ship applications, such as Integrated Bridge Systems (IBS).

Get data from navigation equipment:• GPS • GYRO• TORQUE • WIND• SPEED LOG • DEPTH• Etc.

The unit fulfi ls the IEC 60945:2002 EMC standard and respective environmental standards.

PropertiesThe NMEA2MODB consists of a general purpose I/O part, communi-cation parts, and an ethernet interface. The unit has a built-in power supply unit with 18…36 VDC input range. Two separate power supply sources, with automatic change-over are provided. The power source and monitoring is included in the onboard software.The I/O part contains 32 digital inputs and 32 digital outputs, 4 analog inputs and 4 analog outputs. The unit contains a reference-voltage source to supply external potentiometers or sensors.The communication part contains six UART-type serial interface channels with galvanic isolated RS422/RS485 or RS422 drivers. One channel also has an alternative RS232 driver available. There is also one galvanic isolated CAN-Bus channel. The ethernet part integrates a 5- port 10/100 ethernet switch.The NMEA2MODB units can be connected in a chain, without the need of an external ethernet switch (the onboard switch functions as a normal ethernet switch). The setting-up and parameterisation of the NMEA2MODB module is performed through the WEB-server, using a normal HTML-browser.

General purpose I/O (remote I/O Server)Control of the TM-EFDC digital and analogue I/O- parts are available through MODBUS/TCP protocol. The onboard basic software applica-tion contains a MODBUS/TCP server and the user can read the digital and analogue input registers and write corresponding output registers through this MODBUS/TCP server function.

The digital outputs can be selected to operate as 0...100% PWM output for example the dimming of the panel pilot lights.

The software is compliant with the IEC 61162-1 standard.

Communication part (Serial Device server)The TM-EFDC communication part operates as a serial data commu-nication device server. With this server function, the traffi cthrough the UART (RS422 and RS232) and CAN- ports can betransferred either by UDP or TCP- protocols into the Ethernet- network (LAN).

The UART and CAN- controlled transport parameters and the UDPand TCP server properties are set by the HTML browser.

The TM-EFDC unit has two RS422/485 and four RS422 galvanic isolated serial channels. There is also alternatively RS232 line driver available for one serial channel.

All RS422/RS485 and RS422 Serial channels fully conform to IEC61162-2 standard and also compatible with IEC61162-1 standard devices.

NMEA 0183 Confi gurationINTRODUCTIONNMEA2MODB listens to user defi ned NMEA0183 messages and writes the data into Modbus registers.Messages are specifi ed in a text fi le named nmea2mbus.txt, which is located in the sd-card of the EFDC. The text fi le can be edited with an ordinary text editor, for example Notepad.Each line in confi guration fi le contain a single NMEA0183 sentence that the application should listen to. Sentence specifi cation can be seen as a two-level defi nition, where the fi rst level specifi es the message format and second level the mapping of the data fi elds to modbus registers.
