Effective speed much less than theoretical hull speed.

Can we alter the properties of the water surface to change hull speeed.
What I have in mind is like spreading oil on water where oil is spread
from the bow. I assume that what this does is to decrease the
amplitude of the shorter period waves. Even if it didnt increaqse hull
speed, would it reduce the energy going into the shorter period waves?
