百国航运第二艘船搭载Anemoi转子帆。英国风力辅助推进提供商Anemoi Marine Technologies近日为新加坡百国航运旗下第二艘船舶完成四套折叠式转子帆的安装工作。这四套宽5米、高35米的转子帆于2025年12月在中国友联船厂安装于208,000载重吨纽卡斯尔型散货船"百国梅鲁"轮,随后该轮开启首航前往新加坡。此前百国航运旗下40万吨级矿砂船"百国雾林"轮已于2024年6月安装四套同规格转子帆。
Anemoi首席执行官克莱尔·厄姆斯顿表示:"我们很荣幸与百国航运再度合作,为另一艘船舶加装大型折叠式转子帆。'百国梅鲁'轮的实践证明了风力推进技术能以实用且灵活的方式融入商用散货船运营。我们珍视百国航运对该技术持续给予的信任。"据Anemoi介绍,该转子帆利用风能提供辅助推进力,可降低航行中的燃油消耗及相关排放。帆体可根据需要降落,适应港口作业和空域限制要求。极端天气下无需降帆,仅需关闭系统即可停止产生推力。
去年夏季,这家英国公司在本国第六轮清洁海事示范竞赛中获得120万英镑资金,用于开发适用于卡姆萨尔型和巴拿马型散货船的下一代折叠式转子帆系统。据悉该项目还将通过空气动力学设计优化,进一步提升节油减排效果。

UK-based wind-assisted propulsion provider Anemoi Marine Technologies has completed the installation of four folding rotor sails on a second vessel owned by Singapore-based shipping company Berge Bulk.
The rotor sails, 5 meters wide and 35 meters tall, were installed on the 208,000 DWT Newcastlemax vessel Berge Meru at Yiu Lian Dockyards, China, in December 2025, followed by the vessel’s first voyage to Singapore.
This comes after the installation of four 5×35-meter Anemoi rotor sails on Berge Neblina, a Berge Bulk Valemax, in June 2024.
Clare Urmston, CEO of Anemoi Marine Technologies, said: “We are proud to complete our second project with Berge Bulk, bringing large-scale folding Rotor Sails to another vessel. Berge Meru demonstrates how wind propulsion can be integrated into commercial bulk carriers in a practical and operationally flexible way. We value Berge Bulk’s continued confidence in our technology.”
According to Anemoi, the rotor sails are designed to harness wind power to provide auxiliary propulsion, reducing fuel consumption and associated emissions during voyages. They can be lowered when required, allowing flexibility for port operations and air-draught restrictions, but the rotor sails do not need to be lowered in extreme weather as they will stop generating thrust when simply switched off.
Last summer, the UK firm secured £1.2 million worth of funding under the sixth round of the country’s Clean Maritime Demonstration Competition (CMDC) for the creation of a next-generation folding sail system intended for Kamsarmax and Panamax bulk carriers. The initiative will reportedly also cover aerodynamic design enhancements aimed at boosting fuel savings and slashing emissions further.
