The VLGC Oceanus Aurora has been installed with two custom designed Norsepower Rotor Sails.
Norsepower, manufacturer of mechanical sails for large ships, has installed two Norsepower Rotor Sails on Oceanus Aurora, a Very Large Gas Carrier (VLGC) operated by IINO Kaiun Kaisha and chartered by Borealis.
The project is Norsepower’s third contract for a gas carrier. It is anticipated that the sails will reduce the vessel’s fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by approximately four per cent, supporting the IMO’s emissions reduction targets and contributing to the maritime sector’s transition to sustainability.
