The vessel is developed around the Sleipner concept having the declared target of lowest fuel consumption per transported cargo.

The low fuel consumption is primarily obtained by:

• a high payload to displacement ratio, due to a low and lightweight design and “Zero WB”.
• hull optimization for effective working range, includes optimum positioning of LCB
• highly optimized engine – propeller – hull interaction
• low wind resistance
• machinery such as shaft generator, battery package, Eco EGR and more

Optimization of the design, incl. hull, ramp arrangement, deck lay out etc, has been optimized for payloads of 8,000 t – 15,000 t with a corresponding DWT of 10,500 t – 20,000 t. Design condition is based on homogenous stowed payload.
