Environnement
- Ilma’s design includes some of the most advanced technologies in terms of energy efficiency and environmental performance. The hull form and appendages have been hydrodynamically optimized for slow steaming.
- Powered by dual-fuel (DF) engines using natural gas as main fuel and marine gas oil as pilot fuel, Ilma contributes to setting higher environmental standards. Compared to traditional engines, dual-fuel engines significantly reduce pollutant emissions.
- Furthermore, the selected engines (Wärtsilä 31 DF series) are the best-in-class in terms of energy efficiency and emissions.
- Ilma will feature a “Baltic option” for her Water Treatment. When enabled, this option significantly reduces pollution (eutrophication), making the ship even more respectful of the ocean. Ilma will also feature an integrated Data Acquisition System (now part of Chantiers de l’Atlantique’s standard offer for any new project) gathering a large amount of raw data originating from several automation systems on board “on the fly” and compressing them fora seamless transmission to shore through a satellite link. Experts can then analyze the collected data for varied purposes such asfuel consumption optimization or pollutionpprevention and control.
