- Q185 - Navigation Problems: Near Coastal
26. You have steamed 499 miles at 21 knots and are burning 462 barrels of fuel per day. You must decrease your consumption to 221 barrels per day with 311 miles left in your voyage. What must you reduce your speed (kts) to in order to burn this amount of fuel?
Fuel consumption increases proportionally to the square of speed; reducing speed from 21 to approximately 18.4 knots will limit fuel use to 221 barrels over the remaining 311 miles.
