Tankskibet, der er chartret af Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC) og ejes af Wisby Tankers AB, fik monteret de fire 26 meter høje eSAILs under ét værftsbesøg på Astander-værftet i Spanien.

Sejlene ventes at kunne  reducere skibets brændstofforbrug og emissioner med op til 10 pct, afhængig af rutevalg, skriver bound4blue i en pressemeddelelse.

Sugesejlene gør det lettere for skibet at leve op til kommende regulativer som FuelEU Maritime, CII, og EU ETS, og giver samtidig en kommerciel fordel.

bound4blue’s CEO, José Miguel Bermúdez, fremhæver, at teknologien både er enkel, fleksibel og nem at installere – også som retrofit:

"eSAILs baner vejen for grønnere drift på en nem, gennemprøvet og økonomisk fordelagtig måde for mange forskellige skibstyper – også specialskibe som juicetransportskibe," siger han.

LDC valgte teknologien efter en grundig evaluering sammen med Lloyd’s Register.

"Dette er et vigtigt første skridt i en rejse, som markerer en ny milepæl i vores koncerns lange historie inden for skibsfart," siger Sébastien Landerretche, Global Head of Freight hos LDC. "Takket være bound4blues unikke teknologi og samarbejdet med Wisby Tankers er vi stolte over at kunne bidrage til en lavemissionsskibsfart."
