=solving a world problem
Doebren Mulder Chairman of the BoardKuala Lumpur 12-07-2012
Impact of Beaching• Social
• Lack of safety standerds for workers• Less than minimum wages• Use of child labor ( 15%)• No work no pay, no health insurrence• No right to join a trade union• Last year >800 workers killed by accidents• >12000 workers seriously injured
• Environmental
• Contamination of the coastal soil and seawater by chemicals and waste• No agriculture • No fishing industry• No fueture for this areas for living• (source: YPSA)
• $/€ Earning model
• Ship owners• Ship breakers• Cash buyers• Steel manufacturies
Please can we change this world problem?
Trends in steel
• Global steel demand to hit new records in 2010 and 2011
• New records to be set in China and India; steady recovery in other emerging markets
• Global steel consumption to rise by 13% (2010) and by 5% in 2011 (to 1.340Mt)
• Scarcity of resources
• Backwards integration is part of sourcing strategy; maybe in partnership with suppliers
• Global scrap market expected to remain tight
• Large increase in scrap price last few years; year average around $ 400/ton
Global Scrap Market
• Scrap market expected to remain tight
• Total metallic market 1,8 billion ton (year 2015) ; 30% will come from scrap
• Shortage in SE Asia; China and India important players (>70%)
• Ship Breaking is one of the sources for scrap supply
• Feedstock of ships is enormous
• Annual supply of > 300 ships (Panamax, Handymax and Handysize vessels) for recycling.
• Number wil increase (expanding Panama Locks and new design for shipbuilding)
• Ban on single hull tankers (European fleet of 1.300 single hull tankers to be phased out)
• Beaching forbidden since 2008 (UN directive)
• Today 75% of ship dismantling via beaching in SE Asia
• Dangerous (death’s) and major pollution risks (asbestos and oil)
Present situation waste
• Waste asbestos is typically disposed of in landfills
• Methods for permanent destruction are becoming more attractive as final solution
• Legislation/regulation getting more and more restrictive
• CSR leading to demand for ‘green’ solutions (change shipbreaking practices)
• Greendock’s Solution:
• Thermochemical Conversion Technology (via GD-partner ARI technologies)
ü Permanent conversion of asbestos to non-hazardous inert material
ü Eliminates potential future liability issues with landfill disposal
ü Significant volume reduction
Regulation/Legislation
• There is a significant amount of legisation govering ship breaking globally.
• A new International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships will come into force by 2015.
• Leading multinational companies implementing sustainable and CSR policies.
• Beaching ( will be ) banned by enforcing legislation and regulated by the Internation Maritime Organisation ( IMO ) worldwide.
Methods of ship dismantling
•Beaching (forbidden by Unesco)
• Demolition on beaches primarily in India, Bangladesh ,Pakistan without precleaning
• Causes serious environmental (asbestos and oil pollution) and personal damage (death’s)
• In Bangladesh: 2 ships per year per “yard” with revenues around $ 2 mio per year
•Horizontal breaking (not in compliance)
• Takes place along a reinforced quay wall with harbor cranes (China, Turkey)• Low efficiency with 2 ships per year per yard• Not in compliance with zero pollution due to open maritime environment of
dismantling
• Ship lift facility
• Used for ship repair, normally for smaller ships; costly transfer system
• Greendock facility
• Special designed for shipdismantling• Per GD-yard 360.000 ton scrap annually (24 Panamax ships/year of 15.000 LWT
each)• Environmental friendly (zero pollution) and safe production facility• Serious investment (USD 50 mio) ; turnover USD 65 mio/yr at operational costs
USD 38 mio/yr• IRR around 31% (depending on scenario: ranging from best case 52% to worst
case 19%
Methods of shipdismantling
Solution: the Greendock Concept
• Safe
• Sustainable
ü Society ü Environment
• Sound Investment
• In full Compliance
• Efficient
• Profitable
• People, Planet, Profit
Greendock Ship Dismantling & Recycling Facility
• The concept is based on:
• A ‘foil Dock’ (patented design) of 420 m * 100m• In a sealed area on a scale to accommodate large sea going vessels up to
Panamax size (15.000 LWT)
• Phased dismantling
• Pre-cleaning: environmentally friendly (in accordance with removing all materials / objects not belonging to the vessels construction including waste)
• Slicing the vessels body into sections (14 sections of 20m of 1.500 ton) in the foil dock
• Landside cutting stations with supports for maximum 1.500t per place; demolition of sections into (various qualities of) scrap at cutting stations
• Design and detailed drawings quay wall for disposal of scrap
• Transfer of scrap to steel plant
• Focused on achieving the highest known possible level and uses the Zero-pollution standard ISO/PAS 30000
Location of dismantling facility
Critical succes factors:
• Logistics
• Crucial aspects are shipping routes and distance to Market• Note: Opex Panamax ship $ 25.000/day
• Site selection
• Access to open sea; sufficient area available (around 300.000 m2) and good access to roads
• Docksize: 420m*100m ; minimum approaching water depth 6m
• Labour cost
• Convesion price = pre cleaning and dismantling costs (set at market average $180/ton)
• Note: With some 600 workers per unit (one-shift operation), labour cost is crucial factor
Zero Polution working methods
Critical success factors:
•Pre-cleaning process• ‘In survey’ is part of selection process before vessel is brought to Greendock
facility• ‘In survey’ report in compliance with all international regulations
• If radio-active levels are above international minimum levels as set by authorities, the vessel will be rejected for Greendock-dismantling process and will not entre the country of Malaysia
•Asbestos• Partners of Greendock (Premier Oilfield Services CO Ltd / ARI Technologies)
possess lincenses to operate and thus are certified to work/deal with asbestos (BS EN ISO 9001)
• Track record: U.S Army Corps / AJA Registrars /Chevron Offshore (Thailand) Ltd
• Greendock partners guarantee to operate within internationally agreed upon limits during asbestos removal during the ‘ARI Technologies Incinerator’process
• All personnel involved will be trained to operate
Investment & financial planning
• Pre phase: study, surveys, permits, land, design
• Site construction, equipment, buildings, project management
• Business case financials• Total Investment costs (including land plot and working capital): USD 50 mio
(max)
• Annual production: 360.000 ton scrap per year
• Operational costs: USD 38 mio per year
• Operational revenu : USD 65 mio per year
• Resulting in a IRR of around 31% (base scenario)
Note: depending on a local economics and scenario in place IRR will vary from 52% (best case scenario) 19% (worst case scenario)
Financials (ratio’s / scenario’s)
• Detailed breakdown of costs (Bill of Quantities) will be part of the BP/FS
• Design/project management ; pre construction ; Construction
• A Financial model for 10 years
• Input of the BOQ and a number of assumptions
• Total investment / working capital / land cost (all included)
• One Panamax ship is assumed to weight 15.000 LWT ; year production 360.000 ton scrap
• All service price of Greendock services $ 200/180/160 per ton scrap
• Capacity and utilization of the facility: 24/22/20 vessels/yr (first year of operation:50%)
• Corporate taks : 35% and 0% (potential taks exemption)
• Estimation of staff costs
• Margin for miscellaneous extra cost
Output ratio’s: IRR form 52% (best case scenario to 19% (worst case scenario)
Greendock in Malaysia
• Worldwide Statement• Malaysia solves a world problem
• A ‘Green label’solution for Beaching of vessels; putting Malaysia further on the map
• Zero pollution’ solution for a global problem
• Employment for thousand of workers
• Per yard: in a one-shift operation some 600 workers and 100 staff
• Potentially upscaling to ‘24/7’operation with higher employment and profit numbers
• Logistic centre
• Malaysia has central position in the Asian Area with international orientation
• Major impact for (harbour) activities in the region (plus non-ferrous spin of)
• Malaysian international mindset and good infrastructure Malaysia
Next steps
• Feasibility study/Business Case
• Site Visits & pre selection
• Investigate shipping routes and logistics (freight price) to SE Asia / Europe
• Investigation / inventory of permits
• Investment costs and financial engineering
• Preferred business model (as a presented or with a business partner
• Time frame for FS/BC (3 to 4 Months)
