Op-Ed: Rethinking cargo handling systems

By Taisuke Inui, CEO, MarFlex

Driven by regulatory pressure and the pursuit of more efficient, sustainable operations, the maritime industry is rapidly evolving. From alternative fuels to vessel propulsion, technological advancements are reshaping nearly every aspect of shipping. Yet one crucial area remains largely overlooked when it comes to the technological innovation that is taking place at the moment: cargo handling systems.

This oversight is costing the industry—not just in terms of...

VIDEO: New propeller boss cap promises major efficiency gains

EcoMarine Innovations, a research group at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, has developed a new propeller hub vortex cavitation-eliminating boss cap that promises major gains in propulsion efficiency.

Called the Holy Boss Cap, the conical shaped hub has holes (hence the name) bored into it that affect the high pressure in the hub vortex by redirecting the flow downstream. The resulting low-pressure swirl flows in the opposite direction to conventional hubs, behind the...

The Global Industry Alliance to Support Low Carbon Shipping (Low Carbon GIA) has developed a series of videos on the latest major amendments to MARPOL Annex VI, adopted by the IMO, namely the Energy Efficiency eXisting Ship Index (EEXI) and the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII).

This video is part of the EEXI video series, which comprises 3 videos in total. You can find out more about the EEXI and CII regulations here: https://www.imo.org/en/MediaCentre/Ho..
