ABS Digital Solutions (ABS DS), an ABS affiliated company operating as part of the movement to decarbonise the maritime industry, has unveiled its new CII monitoring and reporting tool and has emphasised the need to adopt a continuous monitoring approach that allows vessel operators to proactively manage their fleet’s carbon footprint.
The CII functionality is an integral feature within the My Digital Fleet’s Environmental Monitor module, which visualises important decarbonisation key performance indicators such as Energy Efficiency Operational Indicator (EEOI) and Annual Efficiency Ratio (AER). The digital tool compiles these critical findings into reports that comply with IMO guidelines and meet the reporting requirements among external stakeholders such as financiers and charterers.
Paul Sells, ABS DS president and CEO, said: “The deadline for CII reporting is drawing close, yet many operators are still unsure how they’ll get their fleets and operations up-to-speed to meet the compliance requirements by January 1 [2023]. ABS DS is committed to staying at the forefront of the industry’s needs by continuously delivering innovative tools. We developed our CII reporting functionality to provide ship owners with a unique offering that rolls monitoring, documenting, and reporting into one powerful solution.”
