Kính gửi: Các chủ tàu/ công ty quản lý tàu biển  
Các đơn vị đăng kiểm tàu biển  
Ủy ban Bảo vệ môi trường biển (MEPC) của Tổ chức Hàng hải quốc tế (IMO), tại khóa  
họp thứ 70 (tháng 10/2016), đã thông qua Nghị quyết MEPC.280(70) để quyết định ngày  
01/01/2020 là thời điểm có hiệu lực thi hành quy định về giới hạn hàm lượng lưu huỳnh 0,5%  
có trong dầu nhiên liệu hàng hải theo Quy định 14.1.3 của Phụ lục VI Công ước MARPOL.  
Tiếp theo, tại khóa họp thứ 73 (tháng 10/2018), MEPC đã thống nhất việc các Chính  
quyền Hàng hải khuyến khích các tàu mang cờ quốc tịch quốc gia xây dựng kế hoạch thực hiện  
chỉ ra các nội dung tàu cần chuẩn bị để tuân thủ quy định về giới hạn hàm lượng lưu huỳnh  
0,5% từ ngày 01/01/2020. Kế hoạch này nên có bản ghi các hành động tàu cần thực hiện để đáp  
ứng các yêu cầu liên quan. Nhằm mục đích đó, MEPC đã phê chuẩn Thông tư  
MEPC.1/Circ.878 “Hướng dẫn xây dựng kế hoạch thực hiện của tàu để thực hiện nhất quán  
giới hạn hàm lượng lưu huỳnh 0,5% theo quy định của Phụ lục VI Công ước MARPOL” (Thông

GUIDANCE ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SHIP IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR THE  
CONSISTENT IMPLEMENTATION OF THE 0.50% SULPHUR LIMIT  
UNDER MARPOL ANNEX VI  
1
The Marine Environment Protection Committee, at its seventy-third session  
(22 to 26 October 2018), approved the Guidance on the development of a ship implementation  
plan for the consistent implementation of the 0.50% sulphur limit under MARPOL Annex VI, as  
set out in the annex.  
2
Member Governments are invited to bring the annexed Guidance to the attention of  
their Administration, industry, relevant shipping organizations, shipping companies and other  
stakeholders concerned.

ANNEX  
GUIDANCE ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SHIP IMPLEMENTATION PLAN  
FOR THE CONSISTENT IMPLEMENTATION OF  
THE 0.50% SULPHUR LIMIT UNDER MARPOL ANNEX VI  
Introduction  
MEPC 70 agreed to "1 January 2020" as the effective date of implementation for ships  
1
to comply with global 0.50% m/m sulphur content of fuel oil requirement and adopted  
resolution MEPC.280(70) on the Effective date of implementation of the fuel oil standard in  
regulation 14.1.3 of MARPOL Annex VI1.  
2
In this context, MEPC 73 agreed that Administrations should encourage ships flying  
their flag to develop implementation plans, outlining how the ship may prepare in order to  
comply with the required sulphur content limit of 0.50% by 1 January 2020. The plan could be  
complemented with a record of actions taken by the ship in order to be compliant by the  
applicable date.  
3
Regulation 18.2.3 of MARPOL Annex VI requires a Party to take into account all  
relevant circumstances and the evidence presented to determine the action to take, including  
not taking control measures. Administrations and port State control authorities may take into  
account the implementation plan when verifying compliance with the 0.50% sulphur limit  
requirement.  
4
A ship implementation plan is not a mandatory requirement. A lack of a ship  
implementation plan or an incomplete ship implementation plan should not be considered as  
"clear grounds" for a more detailed inspection.  
Ship implementation plan for the consistent implementation of 0.50% sulphur limit  
under MARPOL Annex VI  
5
The ship implementation plan for 2020 could cover various items relevant for the  
specific ship, including, as appropriate, but not limited to:  
.1  
.2  
.3  
.4  
.5  
risk assessment and mitigation plan (impact of new fuels);  
fuel oil system modifications and tank cleaning (if needed);  
fuel oil capacity and segregation capability;  
procurement of compliant fuel;  
fuel oil changeover plan (conventional residual fuel oils to 0.50% sulphur  
compliant fuel oil); and  
.6  
documentation and reporting.  
1
Amendments to regulation 14.1.3 of MARPOL Annex VI were adopted by MEPC 73 (October 2018).

Annex, page 2  
Issues relating to use of sulphur compliant fuel oil  
6
All fuel oil supplied to a ship shall comply with regulation 18.3 of MARPOL Annex VI  
and chapter II/2 of SOLAS. Furthermore, ship operators could consider ordering fuel oil  
specified in accordance with the ISO 8217 marine fuel standard. The following potential  
fuel-related issues may need to be assessed and addressed by ships in preparation for and  
implementation of the 0.50% sulphur limit requirement:  
.1  
technical capability of ships to handle different types of fuel (e.g. suitability of  
fuel pumps to handle both higher and lower viscosity fuels, restrictions on  
fuels suitable for use in a ship's boilers, particularly the use of distillate fuels  
in large marine boilers);  
.2  
.3  
.4  
compatibility of different types of fuels e.g. when paraffinic and aromatic fuels  
containing asphaltenes are commingled in bunkering or fuel oil changeover;  
handling sulphur non-compliant fuels in the event of non-availability of  
sulphur compliant fuels; and  
crew preparedness including possible training with changeover procedures  
during fuel switching from residual fuel oil to 0.50% compliant fuel oils.  
7
The ship implementation plan could be used as the appropriate tool to identify any  
specific safety risks related to sulphur compliant fuel oil, as may be relevant to the ship, and to  
develop an appropriate action plan for the Company to address and mitigate the concerns  
identified. Examples should include:  
.1  
.2  
.3  
.4  
procedures to segregate different types of fuel and fuels from different  
sources;  
detailed procedures for compatibility testing and segregating fuels from  
different sources until compatibility can be confirmed;  
procedures to changeover from one type of fuel to another or a fuel oil that  
is known to be incompatible with another fuel oil;  
plans to address any mechanical constraints with respect to handling specific  
fuels, including ensuring that minimum/maximum characteristics of fuel oil as  
identified in ISO 8217 can be safely handled on board the ship; and  
.5  
procedures to verify machinery performance on fuel oil with characteristics  
with which the ship does not have prior experience.  
8
A ship implementation plan for the consistent implementation of the 0.50% sulphur limit  
under MARPOL Annex VI is recommended to be developed based on the indicative example  
as set out in appendix 1.  
9
The plan could take into account the issues identified in:  
.1  
.2  
appendix 2: additional guidance on development of ship implementation plan  
(impact on machinery systems); and  
appendix 3: additional guidance on development of ship implementation plan  
(tank cleaning).

APPENDIX 2  
ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THE SHIP IMPLEMENTATION PLAN  
(IMPACT ON MACHINERY SYSTEMS)  
1
Ships are advised to assess potential impact on machinery systems with the use of  
distillates and fuel oil blends and prepare ships in consultation with chief engineers, equipment  
manufacturers and suppliers.  
2
The ship tank configuration and fuel system may require adjustments. A fully  
segregated fuel system for distillate fuels and blended fuels is recommended because they  
may require special attention. Ship tank configuration and segregated fuel system will also  
allow for better management of potentially incompatible fuels.  
Distillates  
3
If distillates have been chosen as the option for compliance the following may be  
considered:  
.1  
a decrease in fuel oil viscosity may cause an increase in fuel oil leakage  
between the fuel pump plunger and barrel of diesel engines. Internal  
leakages in the fuel injection system may result in reduced fuel pressure to  
the engine, which may have consequences for the engine performance  
(e.g. starting of the engine). Equipment makers' recommendations should be  
consulted, and adequate testing, maintenance and possible installation of  
coolers etc. may be performed;  
.2  
shipowners may also consider installing fuel pumps and injection nozzles,  
suitable to fuel oil with low viscosity. Fuel oil with too low viscosity may lead  
to increased wear or seizure of fuel oil pumps. Engine and boilermakers  
should be consulted to ensure its safe and efficient operation. Implications  
for validity of NOX certification (EIAPP Certificate) should be considered;  
.3  
.4  
while some compliant fuels may not require heating, others, including some  
distillates, will require heating. It would therefore be prudent to review heating  
arrangements for distillate fuels on board and, where appropriate, maintain  
the existing heating arrangements; and  
in some locations, bunker suppliers may only be able to offer automotive  
diesel fuel containing biodiesel (FAME) in accordance with the  
ISO 8217-2017 Standard which provides a marine biodiesel specification  
(DFA/DFB) with up to 7.0% by volume of FAME. CIMAC has provided a  
"Guideline for Ship Owners and Operators on Managing Distillate Fuels up  
to 7.0 % v/v Fame (Biodiesel)".2  
4
In view of paragraph 3.3 manufacturers of engines and equipment such as oily water  
separators, overboard discharge monitors, filters and coalescers, etc. need to be consulted to  
confirm ability to handle biodiesel blends up to 7% v/v.  
5
Also, some parts of the fuel oil supply system, i.e. fuel pumps, pipefittings and gaskets  
may need to be overhauled to ensure integrity.

Annex, page 9  
Blended residual fuels  
6
New blended 0.50% sulphur fuel oil as and when offered could provide an alternative  
to conventional distillate fuel such as Marine Distillate Fuel.  
7
When using such new blended sulphur fuel oils, the technical specification of such  
fuels are (a) either within the limits specified by ISO 8217 or are (b) issued with formal  
documentation indicating no objection to its use by the engine/boiler makers.  
8
Before purchasing a new fuel oil product, operators should carefully consider the  
specific technical and operational challenges that this type of fuel oil may have and, where  
necessary, contact the fuel oil supplier or Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the  
considerations to be made to ensure safe operation.  
9
Densities of these fuel oils are in general lower than conventional residual fuel oils.  
This may require adjustment of centrifuges to ensure adequate cleaning of the fuel oil.  
Cold flow  
10  
Since most distillate fuels do not require heating (in fact, typically, heating is not  
recommended due to the low viscosity of these products), the fuel's cold flow properties  
become a potential handling/storage challenge, especially when operating in colder regions.  
11  
It is however possible to successfully manage cold flow properties through good fuel  
management, from procurement to technical operation, by considering the following:  
.1  
.2  
.3  
.4  
.5  
where the ship will be operating;  
where the risk is higher of getting fuels with poor cold flow properties;  
can the required cold flow properties be specified in the fuel contract;  
what is the actual low-temperature flow properties of the bunkered fuel; and  
which actions have to be taken in order to safely consume the bunkered fuel  
(e.g. tank and filter heating).

APPENDIX 3  
ADDITIONAL GUIDANCE FOR DEVELOPMENT OF THE SHIP IMPLEMENTATION PLAN  
(TANK CLEANING)  
Introduction  
1
Most ships will have been using high viscosity high sulphur fuel oil (HSFO) based  
primarily on residual fuel oils. Such fuels tend to adhere to the inside of fuel tanks forming  
layers of semi-solid substances containing sediments and asphaltenic sludge; such residues  
will also typically have solidified and settled in various parts of the fuel oil service system  
including pipelines, settling and service tanks.  
2
The ship operator may choose to clean the fuel oil tanks of these residues before  
loading compliant fuel prior to 1 January 2020 based on the following considerations.  
3
Some of the fuels complying with the 0.50% sulphur limit are expected to be very  
paraffinic due to crude sources of blending components and also a high content of distillate  
components. If such fuels are loaded into HSFO fuel tanks that have not been cleaned, there  
is a possibility that they could dissolve and dislodge sediments and asphaltenic sludge in  
storage tanks, settling tanks and pipelines, potentially leading to purifier and filter operational  
issues and in extreme cases fuel starvation resulting in loss of power.  
4
Alternatively, ships have been using ship specific changeover procedures to  
effectively and safely load on top of existing fuel oil and gradually flushing through the fuel  
system until the sulphur content in the fuel oil is at a compliant level.  
5
Should the ship operator determine it is appropriate to clean the ship's fuel oil tanks  
and system, the following considerations may need to be taken into account when making  
arrangements for tank cleaning.  
Options for tank cleaning, approximate timelines and considerations  
6
Fuel oil tanks are normally cleaned on a regular basis on ships to remove built-up  
sediments and sludge, usually during dry docking and whenever inspections of the fuel tanks  
are due. However, leading up to 1 January 2020, it would not be practicable for the majority of  
the global fleet that has been running on HSFO and decided to opt for tank cleaning to undergo  
dry docking during a very short period. Hence, other options for cleaning tanks and fuel oil  
systems during service may need to be considered.  
7
The time and work involved in cleaning HSFO tanks cannot be defined precisely, as  
it will vary depending on how long it has been since the last time the tanks were cleaned, the  
condition of the tank coating and the effectiveness of the cleaning process itself. The estimates  
in this document may err on the side of caution as it is almost impossible to pinpoint at what  
stage the ship's fuel oil system is sufficiently clean to guarantee compliance.  
Manual cleaning during dry docking  
8
Time required varies; it can be done in 2 to 4 days per tank. In addition to cleaning  
tanks, all of the pipework in the fuel oil service system needs to be flushed through. Overall, it  
may take 1 to 2 weeks.  
9
A ship that has had all its fuel oil tanks and fuel system cleaned can start loading  
compliant fuels and expect to be fully compliant right away.  
I:\CIRC\MEPC\01\MEPC.1-CIRC.878.docx  
MEPC.1/Circ.878  
Annex, page 11  
10  
However, if only the tanks have been cleaned in dry dock, it could take 2 to 5 days to  
flush through the pipework in the fuel oil service system to ensure full compliance with  
the 0.50% sulphur limit.  
Manual cleaning during service  
11  
If tanks are to be cleaned manually during service, risk assessment and safety  
measures are paramount; refer to IMO resolution A.1050(27) on Revised recommendations  
for entering enclosed spaces aboard ships.  
12  
Time required will vary depending on tank size and the number of tanks, how long it  
has been since the last tank cleaning and the number of crew available to perform safe and  
complete tank cleaning operations. Tank cleaning can be performed by the ship's crew and/or  
by employing a riding crew for this purpose. It is always good practice to inspect the tank once  
cleaned to check its condition and to inspect heating coils, conduct pressure tests and  
undertake repairs as necessary.  
13  
If the cleaning is done by the ship's existing crew, it would likely take a minimum  
of 4 days per tank. For an average tank, a week should be allowed. If employing a riding crew  
to clean the tanks, if working in shifts, it would likely take a minimum of 2 days to clean a tank,  
but 4 days per tank should be allowed.  
14  
Tanks need to be empty before they can be cleaned, hence the time needed to drain  
tanks needs to be taken into account when estimating the overall time required.  
15  
In addition to cleaning tanks, all of the pipework in the fuel oil service system needs  
to be flushed. Flushing the remaining pipework and fuel oil service system after all tanks have  
been cleaned could take another 1 to 2 days.  
16  
The residues from tank cleaning should be retained on board until they can be  
disposed of correctly or disposed to shore reception facilities.  
Cleaning tanks in service with specialized additives  
17  
As an alternative to manual cleaning, consideration can be given to gradually cleaning  
the sediments and asphaltenic sludge from HSFO tanks and fuel systems by dosing additives.  
There are successful examples of this approach for ships that needed to reallocate HSFO  
tanks to fuels complying with the 0.10% sulphur limit that took effect in ECAs in 2015.
