Kappel Fixed Pitch Propeller Retrofit Crude oil carrier to save 4% fuel 105,000 DWT crude oil carrier M/T JAG LAVANYA of the Great Eastern Shipping Company (GESCO) The Great Eastern Shipping Company of Mumbai, India will benefit from a new innovative, fuel-saving Kappel propeller for a retrofit upgrade of their JAG LAVANYA - a 2004-built 105,000 DWT crude oil carrier. Increased efficiency Retrofit calculations on different fixed-pitch propellers evaluated for the M/T JAG LAVANYA showed the superiority of the Kappel design. With the vessel’s speed and operating profile, the new Kappel propeller will deliver a fuel saving of 4% together with a reduced level of pressure impulses to hull – without adding any other, efficiencyimproving devices. Short delivery time The four-bladed, 6.9 metre Kappel propeller is delivered from China. As a result of the excellent and efficient cooperation between the Mumbai shipowners, MAN Diesel & Turbo’s India and Frederikshavn locations – and last, but not least, the Dalian Marine Propeller (DMPC) production partner in China – an extraordinarily short delivery time was agreed upon for matching the planned docking of the vessel in April 2014.
