Tankers
Norsepower Rotor Sail™ is especially suitable for tankers due to its ATEX-compliant design and available deck space. Below, you can find information about our reference ships.
Alcyone
OWNER: Socatra
CHARTERER: TotalEnergies
The Alcyone is a 50’000 dwt, 2022 built, French flag tanker - chartered by global energy company TotalEnergies. It transits between South Korea and French Polynesia. It was retrofitted in 2024 with two 35 m x 5 m Norsepower Rotor Sails™, delivered from Norsepower’s new production hub in China. Based on existing data and projections, Norsepower estimates that the ship can achieve at least 8% fuel consumption and emission reductions on its route.
Fleet of Union Maritime Limited (UML) Tankers
Norsepower has closed a deal with UML to equip its fleet of four newbuild product tankers with Norsepower Rotor Sails™. A further eight vessels will also be rotor sail ready for easy retrofitting.
The vessels will be chemical tankers with a capacity of 18,500 deadweight tons (dwt). Each ship will be fitted with two NPRS™, featuring Norsepower’s proprietary explosion-protection design to meet the stringent safety standards required for product tankers.
