Triple Value compiled data from two different boats operating in the North and North East Atlantic, with very different annual landings and levels of fuel consumption. In both cases, it found that over the period of one year, the operators saved substantial amounts (almost €100,000 in one case) by using gear made with Dyneema, thanks to fuel savings of around 10%. The savings were particularly noticeable when fishing in shallower water.
“The use of UHMWPE fiber of DSM Dyneema leads to a reduced footprint all along the value chain,” says van Wageningen. “This is not a win-win situation, it's a win-win-win situation. The supplier benefits, the user benefits, and the planet benefits.”
DSM Dyneema presented the results and conclusions of its study at the Energy use in Fisheries Symposium, held in Seattle on November 14-17.
