The vessel, owned and operated by Wisby Tankers, was recently equipped with four bound4blue eSAIL® - an advanced type of suction sail - to harness the benefits of [wind propulsion](https://syro.co/en/news/updated-weather-views-syroco-live/), and this latest deployment offers a means to further improve the vessel’s green credentials through optimised routing and energy efficiency gains, while measuring the specific gains obtained by wind propulsion. Syroco Live’s digital platform can recalibrate the vessel’s [digital twin](https://syro.co/en/digital-twin/) with [real-time operational data](https://syro.co/en/news/hoppe-marine-and-syroco-partner-leverage-real-time-vessel-data/), allowing her to perform using the best operating parameters. It is able to compute hundreds of thousands of [voyage options](https://syro.co/en/syroco-live-features/) in just a few minutes, much faster than conventional routing software, and uses [AI-powered algorithms](https://syro.co/en/news/ml-driven-recalibration-models-enhanced-accuracy/) to select the most optimal route.  The platform has access to the most accurate, high-quality metocean data - including past, present, and forecasted data covering the entire surface of the earth. By accounting for the specific [energy needs](https://syro.co/en/news/integrating-ship-propulsion-and-energy-models-digital-twin/) and propulsive forces generated by the eSAIL® systems, the solution computes an optimised, [vessel-specific route](https://syro.co/en/news/physics-based-data-augmented-digital-twins/) that maximises fuel savings and emissions reduction. It also enhances the operational efficiency of wind assistance devices and ensures the collection of accurate data for rigorous project performance evaluation. Alex Caizergues, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Syroco, said: “We are thrilled that Louis Dreyfus Company and Wisby Tankers have recognised the value that our Syroco Live platform can bring. In today’s maritime landscape, voyage optimisation requires robust data and intelligent insights to be effective. Syroco Live can truly optimise voyages and deliver tangible results to our customers. This means reduced operational costs, [greater energy efficiency and lower environmental impact](https://syro.co/en/news/computing-fuel-and-carbon-savings/).” Syroco Live currently [supports more than 100 vessels](https://syro.co/en/news/streamlining-user-experience-and-ease-use-syroco-live/), delivering results for ship owners and charterers across the globe. Late in 2024, the climate tech experts [raised EUR 7.5m in a Series A round](https://syro.co/en/news/syroco-raises-75m-in-series-a-funding-round/) led by impact investors Alter Equity and Blue Forward Fund, which the company is using to further develop its product and facilitate ongoing expansion plans. Syroco also offers [Syroco Onwatch](https://syro.co/en/syroco-onwatch/) a voyage monitoring and assistance service that provides [captains and officers](https://syro.co/en/news/onboarding-ship-captains-syroco-live/) with decision-making support and performance analysis. At the conclusion of a voyage, Syroco delivers detailed reports with analysis of operations and savings, empowering owners and operators to make informed and critical business decisions.    ## Share this post [mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fsyro.co%2Fnews%2Fsyrocos-weather-routing-and-voyage-optimisation-software-adopted-louis-dreyfus-company](mailto:https%3A%2F%2Fsyro.co%2Fnews%2Fsyrocos-weather-routing-and-voyage-optimisation-software-adopted-louis-dreyfus-company) ## Keep reading ### [![](https://syro.co/hs-fs/hubfs/Design%20sans%20titre%20(8).png?width=2048&height=1076&name=Design%20sans%20titre%20(8).png) How OnWatch helped a crew choose the safer route, not just the shortest one ?](https://syro.co/news/how-onwatch-helped-a-crew-choose-the-safer-route-not-just-the-shortest-one) ### [![](https://syro.co/hs-fs/hubfs/1786024001699.jpeg?width=1200&height=1200&name=1786024001699.jpeg) How we cut a ship's fuel by 12.4% - without changing distance or losing time](https://syro.co/news/how-we-cut-a-ships-fuel-by-12.4-without-changing-distance-or-losing-time) --- [![logo\_syroco\_white\_orange](https://syro.co/hs-fs/hubfs/logo_syroco_white_orange.png?width=141&height=31&name=logo_syroco_white_orange.png "logo_syroco_white_orange")](https://syro.co/news/https/syro.co) Driving the energy transition of maritime - [PLATFORM](https://syro.co) - [Syroco Live](https://syro.co/syroco-live) - [Syroco Onwatch](https://syro.co/syroco-onwatch) - [Key Benefits](https://syro.co/benefits) - [Results](https://syro.co/results) - [The Technology](https://syro.co/technology) - [COMPANY](https://syro.co/company) - [Careers](https://syro.co/company#careers) - [Contact](https://syro.co/contact-us#contact) --- [Privacy Policy](https://syro.co/privacy) · [Content Usage Policy](https://syro.co/content-usage-policy) · © 2026 Syroco, all rights reserved. ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Syroco", "url" : "https://syro.co/news/author/syroco" }, "dateModified" : "2026-03-17T16:00:26.569Z", "datePublished" : "2025-05-27T09:00:00.000Z", "headline" : "Syroco's weather routing and voyage optimisation software adopted by Louis Dreyfus Company", "image" : [ "https://syro.co/hubfs/blog/syrocos-weather-routing-and-vo/syrocos-weather-routing-and-vo_vignette.jpg" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://syro.co/news/syrocos-weather-routing-and-voyage-optimisation-software-adopted-louis-dreyfus-company", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://syro.co/hubfs/logo_syroco_transparent-1.png" }, "name" : "Syroco" } } ```
