Software saves fuel on Stena Line vessel

摘要

An upgraded vessel control software package from ABB is delivering the measurable operational efficiency gains promised to Stena Line for the freight ferry »Stena Scotia« within one month of commissioning. The DEGOIV advanced speed governor and actuation system onboard has been enhanced so that control over the vessel's propulsion system minimizes roll and rudder movements, delivering a new way of saving fuel while also improving crew comfort, ABB said in a statement.
