Green Dolphin a concept design for a new Handysize bulk carrier A joint development project Project phases Phase 1: SDARI, DNV and Wrtsil have worked closely together Phase 2: SDARI will independently prepare basic design
A joint development project
- Project phases
– Phase 1: SDARI, DNV and Wärtsilä have worked closely together – Phase 2: SDARI will independently prepare basic design – DNV will later carry out class approval in principle.
- Challenging market situation
– Low freight rates – High fuel prices – New environmental standards
- The project concentrates on existing technologies currently available for
commercial use

FUEL AND ENERGY EFFICIENT OPERATIONAL FLEXIBILITY ROBUST AND RELIABLE ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY AND PREPARED FOR FUTURE REGULATIONS
Fuel efficiency
Hull optimisation and propulsion – a SDARI and DNV combined effort
- Hull form optimisation by use of Computational Fluid Dynamics
- Large propeller, low rpm
- Wake equalising duct, rudder transition bulb and rudder fins
- Main engine with economical performance over the whole operating range
Low fuel consumption achieved at a range of service conditions
- Daily main engine fuel consumption at 14 kn at 9.5 m draught: 17.7 t
- Daily fuel consumption at 10 kn slow-steaming: 6.4 t
- Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) 25% below the IMO reference line for bulk carriers
