Oldendorff has finished the LED lighting installation on the first six ships and will continue to adopt LED lighting for the rest of its fleet. With LED fixtures, the workload for the crew on board will be significantly reduced, as the lifetime of LED bulbs is about five times longer compared with normal fluorescent bulbs.

The use of LED’s will also reduce the electrical power requirement and consequently the emissions from each ship. Oldendorff aims to search for more methods to reduce environmental footprint.
