Marine Vessel Systems Integration - Phase 1

About the project

  • Developed a range of highly efficient concept marine vessels representative of the UK fleet
  • Built on the techno-economic shipping model developed under the Low Carbon Shipping Project led by UCL and part funded by EPSRC
  • Identified technologies required to achieve up to 30% fuel consumption reduction in Marine UK fleet

This project focused on developing a range of highly efficient concept vessels by combining data and modelling techniques from academia with commercial knowledge and technology development expertise from industry. The project was delivered by Rolls-Royce with support from University College London (UCL). The work carried out by UCL was undertaken by researchers from both the UCL Energy Institute and UCL Mechanical Engineering.

The project completed the creation and integration of a full- scale shipping model that is focused on the activity of and the vessels involved in the UK’s sea-based transportation needs. This leveraged Rolls-Royce technology knowledge at a vessel level and combined it with UCL’s capabilities to understand and model the shipping network. It built upon the Low Carbon Shipping project led by UCL and funded in part by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC)
