cee are one What is a Key Performance Indicator? Generally speaking Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) are expressions of performance within a specific area. Typically, a KPI is: part of balanced scorecard or other business intelligence methodolgy quantifiable, objective measure of performance capable of measuring strategic business objective able to compare the current status against set goals able to compare progress of development sum of lower level performance indicators (PI's) Some examples of generic shipping KPI’s can be found in: Y DELTAMARIN™Key Performance Indicators for Ship Energy Efficiency > Standardized definitions for shipping energy efficiency performance indicators do not exist. > The Energy Efficiency Design index (EEDI) and The Energy Efficiency Operational index (EEO!) will most likely provide a basis for standard ship energy efficiency KPI’s in the future. > However, many shipping companies currently have their own strategic KPI's which are used instead of EEDI or EEO! to evaluate performance of their fleet. y DELTAMARIN™ Basis of defining Energy Efficiency KPI > Generic definition of efficiency: ratio of useful output to the total input to a system, i.e. "what we give / what we get” > what we give 5 fel or energy input what we get tranportation task > Fuel/energy input is rather simple to define. It usually is the amount of bunkered/consumed fuel or alternatively the amount of energy (MJ) in that fuel if type/quality of the fuel varies. > Transportation task is more complex to define as it depends on type of a ship and the transportation task it is assigned to. Y DELTAMARIN™KPI examples: Weight carriers > Some ships are designed to trasport cargo, measured in weight, over a certain distance. Examples of such ship types are tankers (liquid cargo) and bulk carriers (solid cargo). > The capacity of this type of ships is usually defined in deadweight tonnes. However, preferable measure from efficiency KP! point of view would be payload (cargo weight only), since that excludes the non profitable items such as fuel and stores. > Possible energy efficiency KPI’s for this type of ships are: — fuel consumed / tonne of cargo transported over a nautical mile [kg/(t*nm)] — fuel consumed / tonne of cargo transported per certain voyage [kg/(t*voyage)] — fuel energy consumed / tonne of cargo transported over nautical mile [MJ/(t*nm)] y DELTAMARIN™ KPI examples: Volume carriers > Some ship types are designed to trasport cargo, which is measured in volume, over a certain distance. Examples of such ship types are chemical carriers and product tankers (iquid cargo but the density varies), roro ships (cargo on wheels), Ing/lpg carriers (liquid cargo but density varies), etc. > The capacity of this type of ships is usually defined in cargo cubics, which is actually a good definition also for energy efficiency KPI. > Possible energy efficiency KPI’s for this type of ships are: — fuel consumed / cubic meter of cargo transported over a nautical mile [kg/(m3*nm)] — fuel consumed / cubic meter of cargo transported per certain voyage [kg/(m3*voyage)] — fuel energy consumed / cubic meter of cargo transported over nautical mile [MJ/(m3*nm)] se1.2011 Sebastian Sala Y DELTAMARIN™
