Stena Bulk exists a model of the next-generation item as well as chemical vessel, the IMOFlexMAX, which will certainly have the ability to minimize greenhouse gas discharges by greater than 25% contrasted to modern-day item vessels.
The vessel, made by Stena Bulk to fulfill the existing as well as future demands of fluid mass delivery, is a more advancement of our existing IMOIIMAX layout; finest in course in regards to efficiency as well as with a style based upon 2 significant goals– versatility as well as performance.
“The world’s need for reliable, innovative and sustainable transportation of liquid products is increasing and it will continue to do so as the world’s population grows and global living standards continue to improve,” claims Erik Hånell, President & & Chief Executive Officer at Stena Bulk.
IMOFlexMAX will certainly blaze a trail in the direction of a lasting future as one of one of the most energy-efficient item as well as chemical vessels on the marketplace.

From hull layout to vessel propulsion, these ships will certainly integrate the most up to date innovation, establishing a brand-new requirement for the worldwide vessel sector.
The vessels will certainly be outfitted with Flettner blades as well as photovoltaic panels to collect power from wind as well as sunshine. They will certainly be powered by effective dual-fuel engines that can operate on LNG along with standard low-sulfur gas utilizing today’s cutting edge, yet additionally break the ice for additional advancement of choices with factor to consider to trade lanes as well as clients’ assumptions.
The standard principle of the IMOFlexMax will certainly enable us to substantially minimize neighborhood SOX, NOX as well as bit discharges, along with greenhouse gas discharges. With the consolidated gas as well as power effectiveness, we will certainly have the ability to minimize greenhouse gases by at the very least 25 % with a possible to rise to 45 % contrasted to modern-day item vessels run by low-sulfur gas oil.
With IMOFlexMAX vessels, which can be developed today with existing as well as confirmed innovation as well as various other remedies, Stena Bulk is taking a significant progression in bringing delivery in conformity with the Paris Agreement as well as the UN’s Sustainability as well as Development Goals.
“The strategy is for the IMOFlexMAX vessels to be released in Stena Bulk’s logistics system in the worldwide market together with the IMOIIMAX.
