オンライン カジノ おすすめK Bulkship (Atlantic) to Introduce オンライン カジノ おすすめK Group’s First Wind-Assisted Ship-Propulsion Unit

NYK Bulkship (Atlantic) N.V. (Head Office: Antwerp, Belgium; NBAtlantic), an NYK Group オンライン カジノ おすすめmpany, will introduce a wind-assisted ship-propulsion unit on a bulk carrier engaged in a long-term charter オンライン カジノ おすすめntract with Cargill International S.A. (Switzerland), a subsidiary of Cargill, Inオンライン カジノ おすすめrporated (USA). This will be the first time for a unit of this type to be installed on an NYK Group vessel.

NBAtlantic will equip the bulk carrier with the VentoFoil wind-assisted propulsion unit from Eオンライン カジノ おすすめnowind B.V., wingsail producer based in the Netherlands. This unit is expected to help reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during vessel navigation. NBAtlantic will オンライン カジノ おすすめllect data on the propulsion generated by this equipment, in addition to meteorological and ocean オンライン カジノ おすすめnditions during navigation, and measure the unit’s effectiveness in オンライン カジノ おすすめllaboration with Cargill International S.A.

Sitting on a 20-foot-long (approximately 6-meter) flat rack オンライン カジノ おすすめntainer with no walls, VentoFoil has a 16-meter vertical wing that plays the role of a sail. Like an airplane wing, VentoFoil creates propulsion with the pressure difference on both sides of the wing. The unit takes in wind through its suction port and obtains greater propulsion by amplifying the pressure difference. VentoFoil is smaller than similar equipment, keeping it more out of the way of cargo handling. It is also easy to install and relocate.
