"Nose Job" for ten Maersk's ships
Can one simply cut off the bulbous bow of a ship and put another one on? Yes, it is actually possible. And you can save up to 5% fuel from doing it. So what sounds like plastic surgery will be carried out over the next year on 2 Maersk's vessel classes, or 10 vessels in total, which will have their bulbous bows replaced in order to make them more fuel efficient. The first round of ‘nose jobs’ have already been done. In November, Maersk Buffalo and Maersk Baltimore underwent the surgery at Qingdao Shipyard in China, and since they are now being chartered out they also got new identities. They left the shipyard as Seago Bremerhaven and Seago Antwerp, respectively.
