In the IMO procedure for Energy Effectiveness Design Index (EEDI) estimation, a weather factor is being introduced to account for speed loss in real operation conditions, but its calculation is still conditional. In the paper, a balanced alternative solution of the problem is suggested, based on extensive data for speed loss of variety of ships at seas taken by logbook records, experiments or series calculations and using statistical averaging of data over operational range in a form of some generalized rank criterion which match the weather factor. The method is thoroughly validated by available full scale data.
