What Is a Heesen Yachts Orion?
Project Orion is the third in our advanced 50-metre FDHF aluminium series with hybrid propulsion.
The hybrid installation will deliver a silent cruising capability and flexible power management for maximum energy efficiency. Lightweight aluminium, precision-welded to the highest tolerances with meticulous weight control by our in-house team, combined with an ultra-efficient Fast Displacement Hull Form devised by van Oossanen, allows a compact machinery package to provide optimum propulsion efficiency throughout the speed range. Two MTU 12V 2000 M61 (IMO III) of just 600kW each will deliver a top speed of 16.3 knots, while at 12 knots Orion will consume just 98 litres per hour, excluding hotel load. At ten knots in hybrid mode, fuel consumption falls to just 45 litres per hour. These are truly outstanding figures for a luxurious 50-metre yacht displacing 295 tons.
