Lloyd’s Register (LR) has issued a new report on the developments in Advanced Propeller Designs to Ship as part of its Retrofit research programme.
As the maritime industry accelerates toward decarbonisation, retrofitting vessels with energy-saving technologies is becoming a smart, future-ready strategy.
The latest report in our groundbreaking Retrofit Research Programme Applying Advanced Propeller Designs to Ships, explores how optimised propellers and propulsion energy-saving devices (ESDs) can help reduce fuel consumption, meet IMO and EU regulations, and extend vessel viability.
Inside, you’ll find insights on:
Fuel and carbon savings with shortened payback periods
Regulatory readiness for CII, EEXI, EU ETS, and FuelEU Maritime
Market trends and retrofit momentum
Technical considerations like vibration, noise, and biofouling
Support tools like Computational Fluid Dynamics modelling and structural analysis
