Hull air lubrication for the global shipping sector
About us
Silverstream Technologies is the market leader in hull air lubrication technology for the global shipping sector. Our proven, fuel-agnostic clean technology, the Silverstream® System, can be fitted to new and existing vessels to improve efficiency, energy consumption and reduce harmful emissions. We believe that air lubrication will become a standard design feature on all newbuild vessels entering the global fleet, as well as being considered a must-have solution to improve the efficiency of existing vessels. The Silverstream® System generates a uniform carpet of microbubbles that reduces frictional resistance between the hull and the water, thus significantly reducing the propulsion energy required to move ships. Our technology unlocks a proven 5-10% net fuel and emissions saving, depending on vessel type. The Silverstream® System is suitable for a wide range of vessel types and our technology is adopted by market leaders including MSC, Shell, Carnival, Grimaldi, Maersk, Hyundai Heavy Industries and Vale.

How can shipping minimise Underwater Radiated Noise (URN) and enhance energy efficiency? In a recent episode of the The Economist’s Babbage podcast, Dr Tom Smith of UCL talks about how air lubrication systems (ALS) have the greatest potential to do both. The mitigation of URN is an area of growing research, and ALS a key technology being explored for its effectiveness. The air introduced by ALS can mask shipborne noise emitted through the flat bottom and significantly reduce noise levels generated by the propeller. At the same time, ALS reduces frictional resistance between the water and the hull surface, cutting net fuel consumption and associated greenhouse gas emissions. A real win-win. With our expertise in air lubrication, we’ve been actively involved in research with various industry partners, including UCL, to better understand URN mitigation and how our solution can drive progress in this space.

Silverstream was proud to take part in the highly anticipated Pudong Shipping Week in Shanghai, China, earlier this month. Our colleagues in China engaged in pivotal discussions on the future of maritime decarbonisation and innovation. They also had the opportunity to hear insights from international representatives, local governments, and transport ministers, including the Vice-Mayor of Pudong, Mr Xu Xin, who highlighted the significance of Shanghai for global trade. As the world’s leading shipbuilding nation, China remains a cornerstone of Silverstream’s growing presence in Asia. Pudong Shipping Week provided an invaluable opportunity to strengthen our connections within the Chinese shipping community, a key contributor to our continued success. #Silverstream #Decarbonisation #Pudong #China

Silverstream Founder and CEO Noah Silberschmidt recently sat down with Daniel Johnson for the latest edition of The Naval Architect. In the interview, Noah shared his insights on the crucial role of air lubrication technology in the maritime industry. The article highlights that frictional resistance between a vessel’s hull and the water is one of the largest energy costs throughout its lifecycle. Building on this, Noah discusses how the Silverstream® System tackles shipping's decarbonisation challenge, delivering significant emissions reductions. He also explores how air lubrication systems (ALS) can help shipowners navigate carbon taxes, lower the financial burden of alternative fuels, as well as other associated benefits, such as mitigating biofouling and reducing Underwater Radiated Noise (URN). For over a decade, Silverstream Technologies has developed and scaled air lubrication technology within shipping, optimising the Silverstream® System for application across the global fleet.
