At the recent Hellenic Shipbrokers Association conference, industry experts gathered to discuss the growing impact of environmental regulations on shipping markets, focusing on balancing compliance, competitiveness, and cost. The panel, moderated by Martin Crawford–Brunt, Baltic Exchange Carbon Lead, featured key voices including Angeliki Malathrona (Redshaw Advisors), Lefteris Koukoulopoulos (DNV), Stefanos Fragkos (Allied Shipbroking), and Carola […]
On May 22nd, OCEANKING and bound4blue co-hosted the Technical Dialogue on Design, Class and Results of Wind-Assisted Propulsion—an insightful event that brought together shipping professionals, technology providers, and classification experts to explore the implementation and performance of wind-assisted propulsion systems. The event offered a deep dive into the design, classification, and real-world performance of wind-assisted […]
The journey of air-assisted propulsion has spanned many decades, and today’s eSAIL® has a rich history, tracing its roots back to the 1930s when the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), which later became the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), ventured into this innovative concept. The very concept of a quality exploration vessel sparked […]
H Κάρολα Γιαννούλη, Γενική Διευθύντρια της Oceanking, συμμετείχε χθες στο πάνελ συζήτησης που αφορούσε την Ναυτιλία Μικρών Αποστάσεων, στο εξαιρετικά επιτυχημένο 7ο Ναυτιλιακό Συνέδριο της Ναυτεμπορικής. Ένα από τα βασικά σημεία που εστίασε η κα Γιαννούλη ήταν ότι, παρά τη μεγάλη διαθεσιμότητα τεχνολογιών απανθρακοποίησης με πολλαπλές εγκαταστάσεις, δεν υπάρχει μία λύση που να ταιριάζει σε […]
AI technology advances leveraging high-frequency data collected onboard, together with noon, weather, and company in-house data, allow ship operators to accurately analyze their vessel operations. Based on these principles, Nautilus Labs as an independent, unbiased third party, partners with ship operators on their decarbonization journey offering a market-leading software platform for pre-voyage simulation, dynamic voyage […]
In the context of compliance with the recent carbon emissions regulations (EEXI and CII), ship operators are embracing the notion of a closer monitoring of their vessels aiming at the same time at operational improvements on their fuel consumption. At the Oceanking Decarbonization workshop, we discussed some of the technologies developed for these purposes by […]
As decarbonization proceeds apace in the shipping industry, batteries/Energy Storage Systems (ESS) have great potential in reducing GHG emissions and improving energy efficiency. The main objective is to facilitate the fuel oil economy of the vessel’s electrical power plant by shifting the operation of the diesel generators to a point with better thermodynamic efficiency. ESS […]
HI AIR KOREA is a leading HVAC system supplier of marine, offshore and industrial applications, from South Korea. During the recent years and in view of the forthcoming environmental regulations concerning the emissions, HI AIR KOREA took a strategic decision and developed their Exhaust Gas Cleaning System (SOx Scrubber) about 4 years ago by utilizing […]
In view of the upcoming decarbonization goals for shipping, wind can be a free, abundant and infinite fuel that can assist in reducing GHG emissions and improve energy efficiency. Wind-Assisted Propulsion Systems (WAPS) take advantage of the available wind to generate forward thrust, thus reducing the engine thrust required and consequently reducing fuel consumption and […]
bound4blue and Oceanking team up to offer innovative wind-assisted propulsion technology in Greece and Cyprus Barcelona, May 17th, 2023 bound4blue and Oceanking have announced a partnership to jointly expand access to the eSAIL technology in Greece. As a trusted provider of marine technology solutions, Oceanking has established a strong reputation in the industry for their […]
