Together with Knud E. Hansen, we have developed a concept that balances capacity, operational efficiency and environmental performance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith our combined experience and knowledge from the operation, newbuilding and design of various RO\/RO ship concepts, we can take advantage of solutions that have worked well for other ships and develop something new,\u201d Lishajko continued. \u201cOur strength lies in finding the best combination of design and technology for each ship\u2019s specific mission, with the aim of continuously reducing emissions and other environmental impacts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/news\/new-sleipner-ro-ro-concept-to-debut-in-donso\/\">New Sleipner RO\/RO concept to debut in Dons\u00f6<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/\">Marine Log<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><br \/>\n    Nick Blenkey<br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n<BR><\/BR><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/news\/new-sleipner-ro-ro-concept-to-debut-in-donso\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=new-sleipner-ro-ro-concept-to-debut-in-donso\">Go to marinelog<\/a><br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Sleipner RO\/RO concept to debut in Dons\u00f6 Stockholm, Sweden-headquartered Wallenius Marine and Danish naval architect firm Knud E.
