What is CII?
Get a complete understanding of the commercial impact of the Carbon Intensity Indicator with smartOps’s CII calculator. CII Carbon Intensity Indicator is a critically important operational measure in vessels indicating transport efficiency and is applicable to vessels over 5000GT. This index estimation includes traveled distance, annual fuel consumed by the vessel, and the holding capacity. Based on the unit of measure CO2, the vessel is given a rating from A to E.
IMO has mandated the submission of attained CII values and ratings. Ideally, a vessel should exhibit a rating of C or above. Vessels with a D rating for three consecutive years or an E rating in a single year need to submit a corrective action plan as part of the SEEMP.
CII Calculator Dashboards
smartOps incorporates and presents detailed CII dashboards with user-friendly visual infographics through which you can compare, analyze, and identify vessels that need to be proactively attended.
- Get voyage-wise, monthly and YTD CII overview along with the set targets
- View the accurate CII values by accounting for the Correction Factors
- Obtain a fleet-wide overview of CII ratings and comparison
- Forecast CII for the coming years
- Identify fleet vessels that need attention
- Monitor and compare actual CII values against set targets
CII Calculator
In view of the regulatory requirements and commercial commitments attached to CII ratings, it has become crucial for ship owners, managers, and charterers to forecast and improve CII performance through operational approaches. To improve CII values, smartOps provides an array of data insights through fuel consumption, weather, and routing.
- Calculate CII prediction for the upcoming voyage as impacted by forecasted weather
- Upload route files and get accurate CII calculations along with weather forecasts through the route
- Get the most accurate CII predictions of the main engine consumption, estimated based on the actual vessel performance
- Obtain guidance on optimal speed to achieve the target CII for an upcoming voyage
- Use the route optimization tool to compare multiple routes with the corresponding CII projections for the same vessel
Simulator
With the smartOps CII calculator simulator, you can simulate and forecast annual CII values based on the expected activity profile of the vessel. Prepare and make operational decisions for the upcoming year by using the simulator tool.
This tool simulates CII values by combining various operation parameters.
- Idling and sailing days
- Percentage of Laden and Ballast voyages
- Average speed in Laden and Ballast voyages
- Different fuel types used onboard
- Main engine consumption based on the current hull condition
- Speed advisory & consumption limits based on the target CII for the year and amount of fuel consumed so far
