Key features

  • SOx scrubbers and SCR systems (IMO Tier III NOx compliance), independent of technology supplier
  • Waste heat recovery: Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) systems converting heat from engines, exhaust gases, cooling water or steam into electricity or mechanical power
  • Ship resistance reduction: bulbous bow replacement, slow steaming and air lubrication (microbubble, air layer and air cavity)
  • Route optimization with Qtagg EcoPilot, Marine Technologies Smart Ship and C-Connect, and Navalt Oceanix
  • Propeller optimization: caps, nozzles/ducts and other technologies
  • Emissions monitoring: Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems with EMSYS and Protea
  • Shaft generators: retrofit projects with WE Tech Solutions

Applications
