Calculations of added resistance and wind resistance for a containership are performed under various weather conditions in North Atlantic routes with the aim of determining the ship fuel consumption as affected by weather conditions. A specific study of the wind effect on ship speed is made, including the effect of directionality and its importance with respect of the wave added resistance is assessed. The attainable ship speed of a containership in different heading and sea-states is estimated.
