Turkish manager Chemfleet is expanding its adoption of propulsion efficiency software after achieving significant fuel savings.
The company, owned 51% by Yildirim Group, is adding three more tankers to the programme involving Sweden’s Berg Propulsion.
A trial on the 13,400-dwt tanker YM Miranda (built 2013), owned by sister outfit Yilmar Shipping, yielded a bunker consumption reduction of around 10%, the Istanbul company said.
