![]() ![]() A key objective was to minimise greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through the application of currently available technologies. A further aim of the project has been to create a new standard that maximises the return on investment (ROI) for the owner. The project goals included the achievement of low emission levels, both at sea and in port, the fulfilment of the IMO’s requirements to reduce CO2 emissions per ship´s capacity-mile by at least 40% by 2030, and zero emissions during waiting time. The design demonstrates that emission levels from conventional merchant vessels can be significantly reduced in line with International Maritime Organization (IMO) targets. At the recent Nor-Shipping exhibition held in Norway, the project partners announced a next-generation 62,000dwt Ultramax bulk carrier design that is optimised according to actual operating profiles, and that will meet upcoming emissions legislation. ![]() The technology group Wärtsilä, Japanese shipbuilder Oshima Shipbuilding, and the classification society DNV GL have delivered the first results of their joint industry development project. ![]()
