Simulation Insights: Unlocking Rotor Sail Efficiency

As part of their collaboration, NAPA and ANEMOI conducted a voyage simulation on a VLOC (Very Large Ore Carrier) with a deadweight of 400,000 tons, equipped with five ANEMOI Rotor Sails (5x35m). The route covered the journey from Tubarão, Brazil, to Manjung, Malaysia, over 34 days, demonstrating the substantial benefits of integrating rotor sails with NAPA’s advanced Voyage Optimization.

These projects reinforce the unique value proposition of the NAPA & ANEMOI collaboration, combining technical expertise with operational efficiency. The inclusion of ANEMOI’s five rotor sails (5x35m) contributed directly to an 11% reduction in fuel consumption on the shortest route. When optimized through NAPA’s Voyage Optimization API, this impact was amplified, leading to an overall 25% fuel reduction and cost savings compared to the baseline.
