OPTIMISING EFFICIENCY
Mols-Linien Port Infrastructure, Odden, Denmark
Transport efficiency
Size has a big impact on vessel
efficiency. The larger the vessel,
the more efficient it is. Transport
efficiency can be defined as;
(Deadweight x speed / power).
To satisfy market expectations the new generation of fast ferry
must be capable of operating at economical high speeds, have
fast turnaround times, be comfortable and yet operate more
efficiently than conventional ferries.
Powered by conventional, affordable, medium-speed diesel
engines, yet still offering among the fastest operating speeds in
the world, the current generation of Incat vessels is remarkable.
Incat's next generation of vessels will utilise the latest engines
available, whether medium-speed, high-power diesel engines,
dual fuel engines or gas turbines. Attractive power to weight
ratios offered by modern engines enable Incat to increase
deadweight capacity and to increase operational speeds of
the vessels.
