Vessel Performance Engineer - Ocean Glide

Alfa Laval Ocean Glide is a unique air lubrication solution with fluidic technology. It creates an even and controllable air layer across the entire flat bottom of the vessel, which is the best setup for reducing friction between the hull and the water. The proven reduction in drag means greater energy efficiency, lower fuel costs and less CO₂ emitted into the atmosphere.

Along with reduced marine noise, these factors make Ocean Glide an important step towards more sustainable shipping.
