As long as particulars regarding the vessel, the rudder, the propeller, are known, the following quantities can be calculated:
- The actual fuel total consumption per consumer and the actual fuel consumption rate of the vessel
- The normalized fuel consumption rate of the vessel with respect to the fuel that is used
- Information about the correlation between fuel consumption and the vessel speed
- Information about the correlation between fuel consumption and the power delivered to the propeller
- The comparison with reference lines such as the charterer’s agreement or the sea trials
