ABS launched an advanced service using modelling and simulation technologies to assess the impact of vessel decarbonisation technologies.
The solution will aim to the design stage as well as simplifying Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index and Carbon Intensity Indicator compliance.
More specifically, the ABS Simulation-based (SIM-based) Energy Efficiency Evaluation (EEE) Service supports shipowners with evaluating their vessel decarbonization options and assessing new concepts in design, engineering and operations while the vessel is in its design stages.
The Energy Efficiency Evaluation service also allows shipowners and shipyards to compare different propulsion systems and test the performance impact of adding different technologies for new build vessels.
Using simulation and modeling technology, the SIM-based EEE can quickly build and tune system models to support the following:
- Provide assessments of fuel consumption and propulsion system design optimizations;
- Create a model to be used as the basis for a digital twin for CII compliance;
- Life-cycle cost analysis.
