Recent fuel price increases, together with future scarcity of fossil fuels and pollution have
raised awareness about the efficient use of energy. Expenditure on marine fuel represents a significant
component of the operational costs of the fishing fleets and, as a result, the profitability of the fishing
fleets is very sensitive to fuel price variations. By assembling data from 54 fishing fleets around
Europe, representing one fourth of the European Union (EU) fishing fleet in terms of vessel numbers
and one third in terms of the volume of landings, we have estimated the effects of the fuel price
increase on the economic performance and the energy efficiency of the EU fleet, for the period 2002-
2008... (+++)
