Formula used
Daily Fuel (tonnes) = (Power × SFOC × Hours) ÷ 1,000,000
Where SFOC is in g/kWh and Power is in kW.
Example
- Power = 8000 kW
- SFOC = 180 g/kWh
- Hours = 24
- Daily ≈ 34.56 tonnes
Who is this for?
Useful for marine engineers, chief engineers and voyage planners estimating bunker requirements.
