Then why don't they go slower? I would expect many cargoes aren't incredibly time sensitive.

- nradov 10y agoThey are already slow steaming on many routes. Ship owners aren't idiots; they have software to perform constrained optimization calculations to figure out the steaming speed which will maximize profit on each leg. This is based on fuel price, crew wages, asset depreciation, delivery contracts, etc.
