A system for minimizing fuel consumption in a dynamic positioning (DP) vessel comprising a measurement system (110), an observer system (222), a control system (120) and a thruster system (150). The heading of the vessel is adjusted to minimize the environmental forces felt on each side of the vessel. The method also allows for operator input to offset the vessel heading to improve comfort on board.
