Kooperation
Wir freuen uns, die Partnerschaft zwischen Gills AL Systems aus Singapur und LR Shipdesign AG bekannt zu geben.
Gemeinsam wollen wir durch erhebliche Kraftstoffeinsparungen, die wir durch unsere kombinierten Systeme für eine CO2-freie Schifffahrt erzielen, zum Umweltschutz beitragen.
LRSD-AFT OPT exceeds IMO-EEDI Phase 2 requirements 2025 for Crude Oil Tankers
LRSD-AFT OPT exceeds EEDI requirements for new tanker construction
In response to a direct customer inquiry regarding the construction of new crude oil tankers and LNG tankers, we are assisting the customer with calculating profitability using LRSD – AFT OPT.
The aim is to examine the impact of AFT OPT on compliance with EEDI requirements for tankers, current status 2025.
In cooperation with the classification society ABS, we performed a sample calculation for a 310k DWT crude oil tanker. A modern design from 2022 with an Asia/Pacific sailing profile and the IMO EEDI conditions for 2025 were assumed.
ABS has supported LRSD in customer projects over the last three years and, with staff on site, has familiarized itself with our technology and our results for bulk carriers and container ships during tank tests, confirming and verifying them.
AFT OPT consistently achieved a significant performance increase of more than 6% PD without ESD in the tank tests. This value was used as the basis for the calculation as a theoretical calculation parameter.
The improvements achieved by AFT OPT have been proven across the entire sailing profile.
The conditions for 2025 were assumed for the EEDI calculation, and it can be seen that with a 6% PD reduction in engine power through AFT OPT, EEDI Phase 2 was exceeded by 5.9% at a design speed of 15 knots.
Reducing the design speed to 14.5 kts would mean meeting the conditions of EEDI Phase 3 of 2030 for this design.
LRSD-AFT OPT, our economic contribution to the further decarbonization of shipping.
Economy becomes the driver of ecology!
Verifizierung der patentierten Technologie
Unser Know-how wurde im Rahmen eines industriellen Gemeinschaftsprojektes ( (Joint Industry Project/JIP) verifiziert und in Tanktests in der HSVA Hamburg 2022 nachgewiesen.
Dabei wurde die Testserie u.a. von den Projektbeteiligten Class NK als Klassifikationsgesellschaft und dem liberianischen Schiffregister LISCR als Flaggenstatt begleitet und die Ergebnisse mit einem “Statement of Fact (SoF) durch ClassNK sowie einem “Approval in Principle” (AiP) von LISCR bestätigt.
