Turbocharger Cut-Out

Slow steaming and SFOC reductions

The Turbocharger Cut-Out System makes slow steaming more flexible. Out of the total
operational costs of a ship, fuel costs account for by far the highest proportion. Low-load
operation, also well known as “slow steaming”, represents the currently most effective
and popular measure to cut fuel costs and in consequence the total operational costs.

By installing a Turbocharger Cut-Out System, the operator has the option of disabling
one of the turbochargers for low-load operation. Thereby the performance of the remain-
ing turbochargers will be improved, which reduces SFOC.

The solution has been very well received in the shipping world, and with more than 200
orders placed within short time, the solution is becoming a standard retrofit choice on
many vessels.
