Grahaeme Henderson, vice president for shipping & maritime at Shell International Trading and Shipping Co, told the London International Shipping Week conference that this has saved 300,000t of fuel and reduced CO2 emissions by 1mt – the equivalent to the annual CO2 emissions from a quarter of a million cars.
He said Shell is now extending this program.
Henderson said Shell believes that optimisation of ship's operations in real time can add a further 10% saving.
