Operational Profile Analysis
Choices made in the early design stages relate to aspects of immense significance. How big is the vessel going to be? At what (top) speed will it operate? How much time (and energy) will it spend at which task? What are the expected wind and sea-state conditions? What is the desired autonomy of the vessel (how often should it go bunkering new fuel)? Consequently, what energy carrier is a good fit for this operational profile? You need to decide all these things upfront. Therefore, it shouldn’t be based on a gut feeling. Operational profile analysis provides a means of validating certain assumptions about a vessel's design whilst avoiding making mistakes that are hard to reverse in later design stages.
