The report covers Phase I of the Maritime Administration's Contract No. 1-35058 entitled A Systems Analysis of Marine Propulsion Systems. The objective of Phase I is to determine the relative economic and technological merit of those competing marine propulsion systems that could be brought to the point of commercial acceptance for ships built as a result of the 1970 Maritime Act and subsequent legislation. The analysis of the competing propulsion systems is used as the basis of recommendations and a priority assessment for the continuing research and development programs of the Maritime Administration directed at the revitalization of the U.S. Merchant Marine. Seventeen propulsion systems are analyzed in five power ranges from zero to 240,000 SHP, covering the period 1971 to 2005. Both nuclear and fossil systems are examined using a series of eight reference ships, four cargo types, and a variety of route distances up to 12,500 nautical miles.
