How does the Decarbonizer work?
-
It’s fun time! After selecting your ship type and pressing start, you can check your ship details and customize your operational profile. Choose the amount of sailing days, increase or decrease power demand, change your specific fuel curve and more!
-
Hold up! How much do you need to decarbonize? To which rules and regulations do you need to comply? Check out what you need to do and set your ambitious (or not so ambitious) targets here - we don’t judge!
-
Decarbonize! Choose up to three preferred carbon reduction measures: a shore power measure, a measure that prevents the combustion of fuel, and a measure to change your fuel. Compare different technologies and play around with the fuel costs to see how they impact your dayrate!
-
Time to get greedy! Customize your business case and determine how other ways of financing, different assumptions or the fuel price benefit your investment. This section is specially designed for the CFOs among us!

This is a case study of a trailing hopper suction dredger with 14MW installed power - the ‘Happy Hopper’ - which is converted to methanol combustion. This case study is inspired by the amazing work done by Van Oord. With the given assumptions on emission factors for methanol, 93% CO2 reduction is achieved. CAPEX for a methanol refit of this size is approximately €6M+, of which roughly €5M is intended for engine refit only. OPEX will be greatly increased unless methanol price is below €500 per mT.
