The Innovations

It took us 8 days of sailing to reach Thailand from Singapore. Facing the absence of sun and wind for 5 days, hydrogen once again proved to be an indispensable ally in the ship's energy mix!

In 2021, Energy Observer has broken its record for the longest navigation! Back on 15 000 nautical miles of navigation, from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean.

Our vessel left Noumea on November 13, heading for Kupang, Indonesia. A tough navigation told by our captain Jean-Baptiste Sanchez, who led our crew off the Great Barrier Reef.

The environmental impact of maritime sector is multiple, and concerns industrialists, institutions, and individuals alike. Our team participated in several events in the south of France to present concrete solutions and meet the players who put these concerns at the heart of their strategy.

Energy Observer's first transpacific journey has ended after 25 days at sea with changing but generally favourable weather conditions.

The weather conditions were quite challenging for the beginning of our very first transpacific!

In 2020, Energy Observer made the longest sailings in her history with its first transatlantic crossing and the exploration of overseas territories up to French Guiana, counting more than 10 000 nautical miles. Let's have a look at the energy performances of our vessel during a year like no other.

Our vessel left the water on January the 4th for a three-week technical stopover in Le Marin, Martinique. A short break after a year 2020 marked by the longest navigations since leaving Saint-Malo in 2017.

Our catamaran left the Bahamas on 15th July to set sail for Martinique, where she arrived on 28th July. A navigation of more than 1,500 miles carried out in one go with difficult weather conditions.

While the crew of Energy Observer continues to navigate the Atlantic without being able to set foot on land, another team is holding its breath: that of Energy Observer Developments (EODev), whose REXH2 is currently sailing on the first hydrogen vessel around the world.

The first hydrogen vessel around the world has just started its winter technical stopover after 7 months of expedition to Northern Europe.

Energy Observer takes care of the details. The experimental catamaran optimizes all its systems to improve its performance as well as the crew’s comfort. Explanations by Roland Reynaud, the on-board engineer.
