In July 25 VERTOM LISA (flying the Dutch flag) was successfully christened and launched at Thecla Bodewes Shipyards. The vessel is the latest addition to Vertom Group’s fleet, specifically crafted to meet the rising demands for reduced greenhouse gas emissions in the maritime industry.
VERTOM LISA is the sixth in a planned series of ten LABRAX vessels, each equipped with a state-of-the-art propulsion system. This system comprises four generator sets aimed at minimizing energy consumption, cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and reducing overall maintenance costs.
Future proof LABRAX series
She is the sixth vessel in the LABRAX series, a series of twelve vessels and represents a significant addition to Vertom Group’s fleet. The box-shaped cargo hold offers great advantages over comparable vessels in the same deadweight range, and with the diesel-electric propulsion system, the vessel has competitive fuel consumption figures and lower greenhouse gas emissions.
With increasing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including stricter targets set by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO), all vessels in the Labrax series are already compliant and ready for future alternative fuels and power sources.
