IMOS - Fuel Zones
Home > Data Center > Fuel Zones
You must have the Fuel Zones Module Right selected under Ports and Areas in the Data Center.
The Fuel Zones form is used to specify estimated/projected low sulfur consumption for different ECA Fuel Zones. Consumption is specified in sets and can accommodate different ECA regulations, different Vessel Types, and other factors. You can create multiple Fuel Zone Sets, including a Global Default Set, and apply them to specific vessels, Vessel Types, Estimates, and voyages.
On the Data Center menu …, under Ports and Areas, click Fuel Zones.
When the configuration flag CFGEnableScrubberType is enabled, high-sulfur fuels cannot be added to the Non-Scrubber tab of the Fuel Zones form. If the drop-down menu only allows the (cons rate only) to be entered, the fuel is labeled as a high-sulfur fuel on the Fuel/Lube Types form.
Creating a Fuel Zone Set
See IMOS - Creating a Fuel Zone Set.
Scrubber settings
For the following ECA zones, scrubber settings as set on the representative port record will now be applied for At Sea consumption:
ECA - GULF OF ST. LAWRENCE
ECA - BALTIC SEA
ECA - PUGET SOUND
ECA - COLUMBIA RIVER
ECA - MISSISSIPPI RIVER ECA - AMAZON RIVER
ECA - ARGENTINA-RIVER PLATE
The default scrubber allowance setting for the listed regions is for Closed-loop scrubbers.
Inland water zones
Many rivers and inland water systems have strict rules around consumption and require low-sulfur fuel rather than scrubbed fuel. Scrubber-fitted vessels need to have low-sulfur fuel entered for the inland water zones if they have high-sulfur fuel entered for the broader zone.
Fuels you set in inland water zones supersede the fuel entered in the broader, overlapping zone.
Example:
To ensure proper fuel consumption for scrubber-fitted vessels entering the overlapping zones of NA 200NM and ECA – PUGET SOUND, the vessels must have low-sulfur fuel entered for ECA – PUGET SOUND. If MGO, a low-sulfur fuel, is entered in ECA – PUGET SOUND, it will supersede the high-sulfur IFO entered in the NA 200NM fuel zone.
Overlapping Fuel Zones example
IMO 2020
The IMO 2020 functionality accommodates the use of scrubbers on vessels and accounts for the allowance of scrubbers in given ports and zones. For more information on the IMO 2020 Fuel Type setup, visit the following article: IMOS - Compliance with IMO 2020
