This paper specifies the problem formulation of research on energy consumption optimization for using of robotized unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) in transport safety tasks. UAV are proposed as an auxiliary maritime safety component, allowing visually detect maritime units, which are not connected to global Automatic Identification System (AIS). To ensure this task solution it is necessary to maximize the time in the air for UAV, therefore the minimization of energy consumption is topical. The paper provides the general formulation of maritime safety task, definition of a multi-objective target function, including energy minimization and safety criteria. A control object for energy consumption minimization is defined, an algorithm for task solution is developed and a numerical example is described.
