By placing the insulation on the inner side of the Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO) tank, the TTEnergyTank insulation method can reduce heating costs by up to 90%. This is because this method eliminates heat transfer bridges, which make normal insulation methods, where insulation is on the outside of tanks, inefficient- especially on ships that use integrated tanks.
Depending on the vessel’s design, its HFO system, and its operation profile, the total amount of fuel saved could be up to 90% of the tank’s total heating consumption. Emissions will also be similarly reduced. In addition, the tank heating can also be turned off, which will help to significantly reduce oil and gas consumption in ports.
