With only 400km I guesstimate you are only half way into the north sea. If you really have no fuel left at all, you could cheat a little by ending your patrol from there. This gives you a Frequent Flyer Miles Bonus, and allows you to transport back to base in a blink of an eye. Then convince the staff at BdU to write it up as a towing incident. It's near enough to home waters.
But yeah, if you still have some fuel left, it might be best to just set speed to 8 knots, and go home on your last drops. 8 knots (in good weather) is better than just setting ahead one third. But the latter option is the easiest in normal conditions. This time however, you need every drop you have.
How did you loose that much fuel in the first place? Battle damage to your tanks? Did you set speed to flank all the time? Do you have SH3 Commander? Then the cause might be sabotage or a malfunction.
