"A cleaner environment to prevent dramatic climate changes is the goal of nowadays. Efforts to achieve this goal in marine field have been made by designers, shipbuilders, stakeholders, charterers and owners. Regarding the latest requirements, in the revised edition of ISO 15016 - 2015, see [2], has been shown the Marine Environment Protection Committee by IMO Resolution MEPC 214 (63) delivered a mandatory Guideline for ships, applied for survey and certification of attained EEDI (Energy Efficiency Design Index) for every new ships. Romanian designers and shipbuilders made special efforts to update this ship to the new rules of MEPC, having the goal to reduce marine pollution even this type of ship is in disadvantage regarding container vessels, where reducing speed is very easy with slow steamer technology. The paper presents the estimation of the attained EEDI onboard a new 40500 dwt Chemical Oil Tanker versus EEDI calculated on the basis of S/P trials."
