The results of calculations, model
tests and full scale measurements
have proven that the Voith Schnei der
Propeller allows very effective roll
stabilization with the ship stationary
or underway.

Conclusion/Summary
Independent investigation programs
carried out by Marintek and SVA
Vienna in cooperation with Voith
Turbo Marine have confirmed the
excellent propulsion efficiency of
the VSP solution across the entire
speed range. Additionally, the excel-
lent sea keeping behaviour of the
VSP was proven and documented
alongside the renowned and well-
established advantages of the VSP
in terms of:
Redundancy
