The IMO Tier 3 NO
x
emission standard effective date starts from year 2016. The Tier 3 standard
will apply in designated emission control areas (ECA). The ECAs are to be defined by the IMO.
So far, the North American ECA and the US Caribbean Sea ECA have been defined and will
be effective for marine diesel engines installed in ships constructed on or after 1.1.2016. For
other ECAs which might be designated in the future for Tier 3 NOx control, the entry into force
date would apply to ships constructed on or after the date of adoption by the MEPC of such
an ECA, or a later date as may be specified separately. The IMO Tier 2 NO
x
emission standard
will apply outside the Tier 3 designated areas.
The NO
x
emissions limits in the IMO standards are expressed as dependent on engine speed.
These are shown in the following figure.

IMO Tier 2 NO
x
emission standard (new ships 2011)
The IMO Tier 2 NO
x
emission standard entered into force in 1.1.2011 and applies globally for
new marine diesel engines > 130 kW installed in ships which keel laying date is 1.1.2011 or
later.
The IMO Tier 2 NO
x
limit is defined as follows:
= 44 x rpm
-0.23
when 130 < rpm < 2000
NO
x
[g/kWh]
The NO
x
level is a weighted average of NO
x
emissions at different loads, and the test cycle is
based on the engine operating profile according to ISO 8178 test cycles. The IMO Tier 2 NOx
level is met by engine internal methods.
IMO Tier 3 NO
x
emission standard (new ships from 2016 in ECAs)
The IMO Tier 3 NO
x
emission standard will enter into force from year 2016. It will by then apply
for new marine diesel engines > 130 kW installed in ships which keel laying date is 1.1.2016
or later when operating inside the North American ECA and the US Caribbean Sea ECA.
The IMO Tier 3 NO
x
limit is defined as follows:
= 9 x rpm
-0.2
when 130 < rpm < 2000
