"ONE-FUEL" SHIP TO RETURN AN OVERALL AT-SEA CONSUMPTION OF 125G/BHP H

Ltd., details the company's approach to evolving a ship which will need to bunker only one fuel grade (cSt 380 viscosity) and aims to yield at sea an overall specific consumption of 125 g/bhp h for both propulsion and electrical requirements by eliminating diesel-alternator sets.
