Wärtsilä launches new feeder container ship design

It is reported that at the 2015 Norwegian Maritime Exhibition (Nor-Shipping) held from June 2nd to June 5th, Wärtsilä (ship hangar position) ship design company launched a series of 4 new type of regional container ships (ship type) Shipyard trading) design. The new design is based on the best fuel efficiency and is in line with all existing environmental regulations.

According to Wärtsilä, the four new feeder designs have been named WSD80-1500, WSD80-2400, WSD80-4000, WSD84-2400, which are characterized by a significant reduction in fuel consumption. Each type of design can be divided into three types: a “conventional” design using heavy fuel oil, an “environmentally friendly” design with heavy fuel oil and a waste scrubber, and a dual fuel and relying on LNG power. Clean" design.

Environmental design is particularly important given that feeder vessels operate primarily in Emission Control Areas (ECA) or Sulfur Emission Control Areas (SECA). As a result, Wärtsilä focused on fuel flexibility when introducing new designs as a key feature of the new design. In addition to this feature, other key features of the new feeder ship design include fuel efficiency, cargo volume, system redundancy, and minimum levels of exhaust emissions.

Currently, more than 4,000 ships worldwide are built using the design of Wärtsilä Ship Design.
