Eco Boss Cap is a practical option for operators looking to increase fuel efficiency and reduce fuel costs.
The Eco Boss Cap is a propeller retrofit for offshore support vessels, crew transfer vessels, anchor handlers and platform supply vessels that helps reduce cavitation damage and mechanical wear while supporting continuous heavy-duty operations. It is designed for operational simplicity, with no fins, no moving parts, and can be retrofitted while afloat or during dry dock.

How the EcoBoss Cap improves Offshore Support Vessels
Built to avoid operational disruption
Offshore downtime carries immediate operational and commercial costs. The Eco Boss Cap can be installed while afloat or during a scheduled dry dock, allowing installation to align with existing maintenance plans. No hull modifications are required, and no changes to the wider propulsion system are needed. With no fins and no moving parts, the design is well-suited to continuous offshore service and reduces exposure to in-service damage or additional maintenance intervention.
Supporting availability and lifecycle cost control
For offshore fleets, value is defined by availability and reliability under load. By reducing cavitation-related damage at the rudder and stern gear, the Eco Boss Cap supports a more predictable dry dock scope, reduced steel renewal and improved confidence in sustained high-load operation. Reduced mechanical loss at the propeller hub also delivers secondary fuel efficiency benefits, typically in the range of 2–4% depending on vessel profile and duty cycle. Lower cavitation intensity leads to reduced vibration and wear on downstream propulsion components, protecting asset value across the vessel lifecycle.
