Omschrijving

The shipping industry currently faces unfavourable market conditions, which has made fuel saving more and more of an issue. This applies not only for the maritime market; inland shippers have also become increasingly aware of the opportunities to save fuel. For the maritime industry, savings are primarily gained by improving designs and adjusting sailings speeds. For inland vessels, however, the environment is an important factor, in terms of waiting times for locks and bridges and the increasing fuel consumption at shallow waters. Frans Quadvlieg and Henk Verheij explain how MARIN and Deltares support this market segment by providing innovative solutions at various levels; ranging from optimising ship designs to operational and planning assistance tools.
