Make IMO DCS reporting routine—accurate, auditable, and future-proof.

The IMO Data Collection System (DCS) requires ship operators to collect, verify, and report fuel consumption and transport work annually. VURDHAAN helps operators build a reporting system that stands up to verification—and feeds future regulations like CII and FuelEU.

IMO DCS fails when data is fragmented—not when rules change.

Problem

Fuel data sits across noon reports, BDNs, and spreadsheets.

Impact

Verification delays, rework, and exposure during audits.

Solution

A single reporting workflow with clear controls and evidence.

IMO DCS reporting maturity

Level 2 — Controlled

Fuel and distance data exists, but reporting relies on manual consolidation.

Treat IMO DCS as the foundation—not a yearly fire drill.

Build a reporting system that supports verification today and decarbonisation strategy tomorrow.
