The next generation of EasyMax vessels is designed with a fuel-flexible capability, ensuring they are future-proof. These general cargo vessels will be able to operate on bio-MGO and will be prepared for alternative fuels such as methanol, ammonia and LNG.
In addition to their advanced fuel capabilities, the new EasyMax vessels will feature enhanced shore power connectivity and improved energy management systems on board. These advancements will maintain EasyMax’s position as world leading vessel in the Energy Efficiency Design Index. With this design Wagenborg commits to reducing GHG emissions further and increasing overall operational efficiency.
Wagenborg has commissioned Dutch shipyard Royal Niestern Sander to construct six new vessels of this next-generation EasyMax design. The keel-laying is marking a significant step in the company’s fleet renewal strategy. The EasyMax design is also used as a platform for various ship types. For example, currently under construction is the first dedicated European built offshore EasyMax CO2 carrier.
