    Dear Alisdair

    Our authorities here in Australia have assessed for environmental purposes
    the emissions for 1 kilolitre of Bunker Fuel (either 180 or 380 csi fuel oil)
    as:
    -3 tCO2-e for scope 1 GHG emissions
    -0.0078 tCO2-e for scope 3 GHG emissions

    Does this approximate other calculations used by people trying to meet 'Greenie' or Kyoto type emission assessments ?

    Regards

    Michael Derry

    Michael - this doesn't answer your question directly, but the authority in California doing a lot of work on ship emissions is the California Air Resources Board (ARB). You may wish to follow up with them.
