| Abstract | According to the increase of the international oil price, the proportion of the fuel cost to the operational cost of a ship is increasing in these days. Thus, many studies in shipbuilding and shipping fields are being made to reduce the fuel cost. Some of them include a method for lightening the weight of a ship, the development of an energy saving equipment, a method for acquiring the sea state information, a method for accurately estimating fuel consumption, a method for determining the ship’s optimal route, and so on. However, these studies were not incorporated together and being independently made in different fields. In this study, by improving and incorporating some of them, one of energy saving methods, that is, a method for determining a ship economic route based on the acquisition of the sea state and estimation of fuel consumption was proposed. The proposed method consists of three items. The first item is to acquire the sea state information in real-time. The second item is to estimate of fuel consumption of a ship according to the sea state. The last item is to find a ship economic route having the minimal fuel consumption based on two items. To evaluate the applicability of the proposed method, it was applied to an optimal routing problem of the ocean area including many islands. The result shows that the proposed method can yield the economic route minimizing fuel consumption. Thus, this study will be able to contribute to make energy saving and environment-friendly ship in shipyards or shipping companies. |
