Fredrik

Fredrik bruker informatikk til å kutte drivstoffbruket til store skip

Værmeldinger har alltid vært viktige for planlegging av skipsfart. I masteroppgaven sin har Fredrik Åhgren Sørum laget en ny modell som skal hjelpe å minimere drivstoffbruk for skip som leverer offshore-utstyr fra Mongstad.
