Cryosafe and bound4blue Partnership for LNG Carrier Wind Propulsion
Cryosafe Services has partnered with bound4blue to evaluate the integration of eSAIL technology for LNG carriers. This collaboration aims to enhance operational efficiency and compliance with environmental regulations, while reducing fuel consumption and emissions.

Cryosafe Services and bound4blue have initiated a partnership to assess eSAIL technology integration for LNG carriers, focusing on factors like air draft, cargo operations, and terminal compliance. The eSAIL system, which has been DNV approved, can increase propulsive efficiency by generating lift up to seven times greater than traditional sails.
This technology is particularly advantageous for LNG carriers due to their operational characteristics and trading patterns. The partnership is expected to support fuel savings and emissions reduction, aligning with EU ETS and IMO regulations.
Recent installations for Odfjell, Eastern Pacific Shipping, and Maersk Tankers exemplify the technology's practical application. The collaboration is positioned to enhance operational guidance and compliance for LNG carriers.
