Company

Ecoship Engineering AB is a technology company located in Malmö, Sweden. The company's main activity is research and development into Ecoship technology for sustainable sea transport with environmentally friendly and cost effective ship designs.

Ecoship takes full advantage of the vaste knowledge, experience and resources available to its partners:

• FKAB, ship design
   

• Ocke Mannerfelt Design AB, ship hull form development
   

• EMC Europe Marine Control B.V., diesel-electric propulsion drive systems, power management system, ship electric, automation and navigation systems
   

• Callenberg Electro AB / Callenberg Fläkt Marine AB, ship electrical, automation and HVAC technologies
  

• IUC Skåne AB, R&D project financing
  

Ecoship™ product strategy
The strategy for the Ecoship concept builds on the following principles:

Environmental optimisation within project engineering, design and construction by means of the Ecoship Lifecycle Analysis Model (LCA),

• Use of more environmentally suitable materials

• Use of more environmentally suitable production methods

• Reducing materials consumption

• Increasing energy efficiency in a new propulsion system

• Increasing efficiency of transport and logistics

• Optimisation based on the vessel's function

• Reducing emissions and operational risks

• Prolonging the useful life of the product

• Closing material flow cycles

This environmental strategy must, in combination with other specification requirements, contribute to producing a ship with lower environmental impact than previous ships.

Increasing transport cost efficiency by means of the Ecoship Lifecycle Costs Model (LCC),

• Analysis of basic transport factors

• Optimisation of loading capacity

• Environmentally optimised design in accordance with DNV's Clean Design and Swedish Maritime Administration requirements for minimum transport costs.

• Development of modern IT monitoring of function, automation and safety of propulsion and ship systems for efficient operation. Redundant propulsion system (RPS).

• Modularisation with flexibility for cost-effective production. Development of systems and system deliveries.

• Service agreement for operational maintenance with operations guarantee.

• Operations analysis of energy consumption, environmental impact and operating costs with the ECO RPP operations analysis system.

The "Ecoship" vision
To create a complete, environmentally responsible vessel for efficient energy use with minimal emissions from the propulsion unit and other ship's systems, in which the total lifecycle of the ship is taken into account at the design and production stage.
