- The ship was retrofitted with two WindWings®, which measure 37.5 meters in height and resemble large airplane wings.
- For example, in near optimum sailing conditions, during an open sea voyage, the Pyxis Ocean achieved fuel savings of 11 tonnes per day.
- This complexity is where Cargill truly excels, and how we can leverage our unique role in the maritime industry.
