Abstract
Different types of energy saving methods within shipping are gaining more interest due to environmental awareness, financial
incentives, and, most importantly, new regional and international rules, which limit the acceptable emission from the ships
considerably. Some of these measures are based on hydrodynamic principals. Most widely applied are installation of energy
saving devices (ESD). There are different types of energy saving devices in the market, and new ones or new versions of existing
ones are introduced. This webinar shall provide basic insight into different main types of hydrodynamic energy saving methods,
their working principles, merits and disadvantages, and whether they can be combined.
