Abstract
With increased awareness regarding efficient utilization of energy and decreasing emissions, maritime industry is striving to move towards integrated optimization. This paper highlights methodologies to achieve the same. Trim and Speed optimization studies with due consideration to minimum power in adverse condition is explained. EEDI assessor has been developed by Indian Register of shipping to calculate the ship's energy efficiency design index. Risk based approach is applied for alternative fuel i.e. LNG. Current development work is being carried out within IRS are brought out in this paper.
