Cruise emission-free - a luxury?

Cruise emission-free - a luxury?

Norway's government has decided that from 2026, ships that still use fossil fuels will no longer be allowed to enter the country's fjords. This - quite rightly - puts designers and shipowners under pressure. But the solution is already on the drawing board - at least for the luxury segment of coastal cruises in the north of Europe: The shipping company Northern Xplorer (Oslo) has had a ship drawn by the Norwegian architecture company Multi Maritime AS (Fœrde - three fjords north of Bergen) and intends to build and commission it by the set deadline.

Damen Naval, the main contractor for the four F126 frigates, has commissioned Damen Marine Components (DMC) to develop and produce the required rudder pairs for the combat vessels. They are intended to improve the hydrodynamic properties of the ships and withstand extreme impacts. According to Damen, the DMC full spade rudders of the Atlantic type have been calculated according to the special hull shape and operational profile of these frigates. With their slim profile, the rudders reduce flow resistance and improve the F126's ability to maintain its course at high speeds, Damen continues. Good manoeuvrability at low speeds in harbours or during special missions of these naval vessels is maintained....
