Singapore Shipowner Collaborates with DEALFENG to Equip 14K Series Chemical Tankers with Rotor Sails​​

As the global shipping industry transitions toward decarbonization and sustainability, Singapore-based shipowner Hungze has signed a landmark cooperation agreement with Dealfeng, a leading Chinese provider of wind-assisted propulsion systems. The partnership will equip a new series of 14,000 DWT chemical tankers with Dealfeng® Rotor Sails. Each vessel will feature a 5m x 24m Dealfeng Rotor Sail installed on its forecastle deck. Collaborating with maritime software leader NAPA, the project will utilize route optimization systems to maximize the efficiency of wind-assisted voyages, further enhancing fuel savings and emissions reduction while improving overall energy performance.
 

The first vessel in the series is scheduled for delivery with the rotor sail system in the fourth quarter of 2025. Preliminary calculations indicate that the technology will achieve approximately 8% fuel savings on the vessel’s trading routes. This project not only marks Dealfeng’s breakthrough in securing its first overseas commercial contract but also demonstrates the shipping industry’s recognition of Dealfeng’s independently developed wind-assisted propulsion technology. It underscores a shared commitment between shipowners and green technology innovators to support the IMO’s greenhouse gas reduction strategy and advance green shipping initiatives.
