RoPax Passenger Ferry Hull Launched Marking the completion of the first newbuild contract between Niron Staal Amsterdam and Damen Shipyards Group, the hull of a RoPax 5212 passenger ferry has been launched from Niron Staal’s facilities in Amsterdam. The RoPax 5212 hull is a noteworthy project, according to Niron Staal Amsterdam’s Director Roland Berends: “First and foremost, because it is our first newbuild contract with

Damen, but also because it shows the cooperation that we have had with Damen during the build process.” Niron Staal Amsterdam has fabricated the hull of this passenger ferry in their covered production hall. This provides numerous benefits during the construction process. With this first hullconstruction contract completed, Niron Staal is looking forward to further projects with Damen in the near future.

news in brief Baleària Orders Sister Ferries

New Supply Vessel Gennadiy Nevelskoy

Baleària shipping line has shown its partiality for LNG-fuelled ships with these two smart sister ships, each with capacity for more than 800 passengers and over 2,000 LM for cargo. Baleària has reached an agreement with the Italian shipyard Cantiere Navale Visentini to build two, dual-gas-engine sister ferries, measuring 186.5m in length and with capacity for 810 people, 2,180 LM of cargo and 150 cars. The total investment in these innovative vessels is some EUR 200 million; they are expected to be operational by the end of 2018. With the construction of these two vessels, the company takes a further step forward in its commitment to use natural gas and ecoefficiency in their fleet. The ships can reach a speed of 24 knots thanks to two dual engines with a total power of 20,600KW.

On 30 January 2017, the naming ceremony took place for a new ice-breaking platform supply vessel (IBSV) built for the Sakhalin-2 project. The vessel was commissioned by SCF Group under a long-term agreement with Sakhalin Energy. She was named after Gennadiy Nevelskoy, a famous explorer of the Sakhalin Island and the Russian Far East. The new IBSV was built to the best practice standards of the global shipbuilding industry and to the highest specifications set for vessels that operate in harsh environments. Gennadiy Nevelskoy (deadweight 3,000t) will have Saint Petersburg as her home port and is registered under the Russian flag. She is the first of four vessels commissioned by SCF Group for operations at the Sakhalin-2 project. The other three are icebreaking standby vessels (IBSBVs) that have a smaller deadweight (2,000t), but offer enhanced functionality and a higher people-onboard capacity.

Certification for Damen Marine Components Damen Marine Components (DMC) Gdańsk, one of the Damen Shipyards Group’s locations for the production of high quality, high precision steel components including propeller nozzles, rudder installations and cranes, has received EN 1090 and ISO 3834 certifications. DMC Gdańsk supplies a wide range of top quality components to shipyards all over the world and these certifications, as verified by Bureau Veritas, confirm its high standards in the fabrication of steel and aluminium structures (EN 1090) and the quality of its fusion welding (ISO 3834). These awards join its existing ISO 14001:2004, OHSAS 18001:2007 and ISO 9001:2008 certificates. With two sites, in Gdańsk and Elblag, Poland, the company has seven production halls with over 11,000m² of production space. The Gdańsk site has direct access to the sea, allowing structures of unlimited size or unusual shapes to be loaded onto barges for onward transport.

news in brief Alewijnse Marine and Australia Antartic Icebreaker Alewijnse Marine has won a landmark order for the full electrical installation on board the Government of Australia’s new, world-beating Antarctic icebreaker. The icebreaker ASRV is the main lifeline to Australia’s Antarctic and sub-Antarctic research stations and the central platform for its Antarctic and Southern Ocean scientific research. The state-of-the-art, 156m vessel is a once-in-a-generation investment for the Australian Government and is exceptional due to its complexity and sophistication. Alewijnse will be responsible for the engineering, delivery and installation of the vessel’s entire electrical system, including the main power installation, the propulsion and thruster control systems and the integrated platform management system. The build and outfitting will take place at Damen Shipyards Galati, Romania.

Cutter Suction Dredger ‘Spartacus’

The powerful Cutter Suction Dredger ‘Spartacus’ is set to join the DEME fleet. The combination of power, size and new innovations means that mega cutter ‘Spartacus’ sets a new benchmark in the dredging industry. ‘Spartacus’ will be built at Royal IHC in the Netherlands and will be delivered in the summer of 2019. With a total installed capacity of 44,180kW, ‘Spartacus’ will be a very powerful Cutter Suction Dredger. The vessel’s power will enable her to cut harder soils at speeds that have not been possible before. This means that work can be taken on by the cutter dredger that might usually rely on the use of dynamite and blasting. ‘Spartacus’ will be able to dredge in waters of up to 45m, compared to the 35m depth which is presently the upper limit in the market. Given her fuel autonomy and accommodation capacity, the dredger is capable of operating in very remote locations with limited infrastructure.

New Inland Ferry Ordered The vessel on order is a 25m ferry especially designed to carry vehicles and passengers across the canal linking Ghent and Terneuzen. Even though the journey time each way for the ferry will be little more than five minutes, the complex route and the minimal room for manoeuvre on the busy waterway means that she will be fitted with twin Voith Schneider propellers (cycloidal drives) to give her the agility required for safe and speedy passages. Power will be provided by twin diesel engines and delivered via reduction gearboxes, while shaft generators will supply electrical power for onboard systems. An emergency generator rated at 14.5kVA will also be installed. The new ferry will be named Cyriel Buysse and is scheduled for delivery in March 2018. The newbuild order for the Damen Shipyards Group was signed on 31 December 2016 with DAB Vloot of Belgium.

NEWS IN BRIEF

ZEELANDER YACHTS MOVED INTO ITS NEW ASSEMBLY HALL IN THE NETHERLANDS IN JANUARY 2017. ALL NEW ZEELANDERS VESSELS ARE NOW OUTFITTED IN THIS STATE-OF-THE-ART FACILITY LOCATED IN GROOT-AMMERS, WHICH IS FULLY OWNED BY ZEELANDER YACHTS.

Collaboration Sydney City Marine and Damen Sydney City Marine has completed its ﬁrst maintenance docking of a Damen vessel since the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Damen Shipyards Group last year. The works signify the successful cooperation between Damen Services in the Netherlands, the Damen Service Hub in Brisbane and Sydney City Marine. The vessel in question was the Svitzer Warang, a Damen ASD 2810 owned by global towage operator Svitzer. Sydney City Marine was contracted by Svitzer to carry out a 5-year special survey on the vessel. The Svitzer Warang left the yard just before Christmas 2016. The project is also notable because it was the ﬁrst time that Sydney City Marine made use of its new ship cradle. In accordance with the MOU between the two companies, Damen provided technical assistance, engineering capacity and any necessary parts and equipment from its Service Hub in Brisbane.

New Hybrid Electric Ferry in Asia

The Taiwanese harbour city of Kaohsiung has launched a new hybrid electric ferry, which could revolutionise marine passenger transport across the region by curbing greenhouse and diesel emissions. Kaohsiung has recently re-launched the popular Cijian Island passenger ferry, retrofitted with a Visedo electric propulsion system, replacing the original diesel engine. It heralds Asia’s first hybrid electric ferry and, if successful, the Kaohsiung City Government plans to retrofit the rest of its diesel fleet to help reduce pollution levels around Taiwan’s largest harbour. Visedo OY, a leading Finnish manufacturer of electric drivetrains for marine vessels, commercial vehicles and heavy duty applications, worked alongside Taiwan’s Ship and Ocean Industries R&D Centre, also known as SOIC, to complete the retrofit.

Contract Havyard and STX France The Havyard company HPR has announced a contract of around EUR 8.5 million that has been agreed with STX France. Havyard Production & Service (HPR) is going to carry out electrical work in two out of seven zones in a series of cruise ships belonging to the shipping company Celebrity Cruises, a subsidiary to Royal Caribbean Cruises. The contract relates to four cruise ships in the EDGE-series, with an option of one further cruise ship in the same series. Work on the ﬁrst newbuild has started and is secured until 2022. The ships are going to be constructed at the STX France shipyard in Saint Nazaire. Each of the ships in the EDGE-series has a capacity for 2,900 passengers, with length of 300m and 117,000 gross tonnage.

words by Julia ZaltZman

his year’s Nor-Shipping takes place across a series of venues in oslo and lillestrøm in Norway from 30 may to 2 June. it is expected to attract more than 35,000 delegates from over 80 countries, with almost 1,000 of the world’s leading maritime companies showcasing products and services to the industry, future talent and shipping value chain stakeholders. the best and latest in maritime technology will be spread across six themed halls spanning an impressive 22,500m2, but as the warmer spring months fast approach, so does the now distressingly familiar surge in refugee crossings, and fatalities. while calling for a concerted international effort to boost search and rescue resources in the mediterranean, Nor-Shipping, which supports the Norwegian Society of Sea rescue in its vital work in the region, says more needs to be done to avert a new chapter in this on-going humanitarian crisis. “the main theme of our event week in 2017 is ‘Catalyst for Change’ and we hope to make a difference with regard to this heart-breaking situation,” says Director Birgit liodden. “one way of doing that is through financial support, however, we’ll also be using our programme of activities throughout oslo and lillestrøm to highlight the situation and encourage the industry to support rescue initiatives when possible, and to push for wider sustained international campaigns to help save lives.”

BALLAST WATER

international meaSure For environmental proteCtion

Ballast Water Management The InTernaTIonal ConvenTIon for The ConTrol and ManageMenT of ShIpS’ BallaST WaTer and SedimentS (BWm Convention) Will Be introduCing a neW legal BenChmark on 8 SeptemBer 2017, eStaBliShing the regulationS ShipS have to adhere to When managing their BallaSt Water. thiS measure can been seen as an initial, ground-breaking step in the battle against the spread of invasive aquatic species. most vessels will be required to comply with the new rules before 8 September 2017, meaning that ships must be responsible for removing, or rendering harmless, those aquatic organisms and pathogens which cause devastation to local ecosystems and which have a negative impact on biodiversity. Systems will have to be initiated to actively avoid both the uptake and discharge of these organisms and pathogens.

he impetus for the significant change in the regulations regarding marine environmental protection comes as a result of Finland’s accession to the Convention. preventing the spread of invasive aquatic species via ships’ ballast water is cited by imo Secretary-general kitack lim as “a truly significant milestone for the health of our planet”.

Irreversible Damage

“the spread of invasive species has been recognised as one of the greatest threats to the ecological and the economic well-being of the planet. these species are causing enormous damage to biodiversity and the valuable natural riches of the earth upon which we depend. invasive species also cause direct and indirect health effects and the damage to the environment is often irreversible,” says mr lim. he adds: “the coming into force of the Ballast Water management Convention will not only minimise the risk of invasions by alien species via ballast water, it will also provide a global level playing field for international shipping, providing clear and robust standards for the management of ballast water on ships.” the issue of invasive species in ships’ ballast water has been the subject of consideration since the 1980s, when it was brought to the attention of

imo’s marine environment protection Committee (mepC). guidelines were finally drawn up in 1991 and the Ballast Water management Convention was adopted in 2004.

Global Transportation of Aquatic Species

Ballast water is used by ships for stability and structural integrity. a vessel picks up ballast from the local waters, containing uncountable marine microbes, algae and fauna. When adjustments are necessary due to changes in cargo, the ballast is offloaded, sometimes thousands of miles from the place where it was taken up and the alien aquatic organisms are released into ecosystems to which they are not native. untreated, this released ballast water could potentially introduce a new invasive aquatic species. the surge in maritime trade, the increase in sea-faring traffic and the expansion in shipping routes over the last few decades have contributed to the increased likelihood of invasive species being transported across the globe. this has already occurred in hundreds of areas, with the local ecosystem paying the ultimate penalty. along with the major increase in demand for ballast water treatment systems, many vessel owners and operators are uncertain

corners of the globe inventing and manufacturing type-approved systems. IMO has worked extensively to develop guidelines for the uniform implementation of the Convention and to address the concerns of various interested parties, such as where type approved ballast water management systems can be acquired and the kind of testing necessary. All ballast water management systems will have to meet the stringent approval requirements set by national authorities, according to a process developed by IMO. Ballast water management systems have to be tested in a land-based facility and on board ships to prove that they meet the performance standard set out in the Treaty. These could, for example, include systems that make use of filters and ultra violet light or electrochlorination. Strict approval procedures are in place for ballast water management systems, which make use of active substances, and they must be verified by IMO. It must be ascertained via a two-tier process that the ballast water management system does not create an unreasonable threat to the safety of the vessel, to human health or to the aquatic environment.

GloBallast Programme

In order to implement the Convention, IMO GloBallast Partnerships Project has been assisting developing countries to reduce the

The spread of invasive species has been recognised as one of the greatest threats to the ecological and the economic well-being of the planet.

risk of aquatic bio-invasions by building the necessary capacity. More than 70 countries have been the direct beneficiaries of the Project and GloBallast has received a number of international awards for its work. To prepare for the time when the treaty comes into force, GloBallast has recently been developing and running workshops on ballast water sampling and analysis. Online learning tools have been made available at no charge, including an e-learning program on the operational aspects of ballast water management. The GloBallast Partnership programme also engages with the private sector through the Global Industry Alliance (GIA) and GIA Fund, established with partners from major maritime companies.

The North American comb jelly (Mnemiopsis leidyi) has travelled in ships’ ballast water from the eastern seaboard of the Americas to the Black, Azov and Caspian Seas, for example. It depletes zooplankton stocks; altering food web and ecosystem function. The species has contributed significantly to the collapse of Azov Sea, Black Sea and Caspian Sea fisheries in the 1990s and 2000s, with a massive economic and social impact. The Zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) has been transported from the Black Sea to western and northern Europe, including Ireland and the Baltic Sea, and the eastern half of North America. Travelling in larval form in ballast water, on release it has rapid reproductive growth with no natural predators in North America. The mussel multiplies and fouls all available hard surfaces in mass numbers. Displacing native aquatic life, this species alters habitat, ecosystem and the food web and causes severe fouling problems on infrastructure and vessels. There have been high economic costs involved in unblocking water intake pipes, sluices and irrigation ditches. The North Pacific seastar (Asterias amurensis) has been transported in ballast water from the northern Pacific to southern Australia. It reproduces in large numbers, reaching ‘plague’ proportions rapidly in invaded environments. This invasive species has caused significant economic loss as it feeds on shellfish, including commercially valuable scallop, oyster and clam species.

ecent offshore projects, especially those in the renewable energy sector, are proving to be very demanding for the current vessels in the Jan De Nul fleet. To deal with these customer demands efficiently, the construction of the new twin multipurpose vessels Adhémar de SaintVenant and Daniel Bernoulli was initiated.

Tailored to Customer Needs The design requires the vessels to be able to adapt to various installation projects, whilst remaining as cost-efficient as the present fleet. The work is tailored to the requirements of customer projects, including subsea rock and cable installation and trenching. One big vessel, complete with all possible options, would prove too large to operate at close quarters to platforms and wind turbines, and would also be too expensive. Therefore, a Swiss pocketknife approach has

www.s h i p b u i l d i n g -industr y.eu

Adhemar.indd 33

been adopted. There is only one big difference: the assortment of available tools is not carried on board permanently, but mobilised as required for the execution of a specific project. As a consequence, a smaller platform can be developed, which would be much easier to manoeuvre at close quarters to offshore platforms or wind turbines. Bearing the many requirements in mind, an intense cooperation was established between the flag state, the classification society and the owner to define the regulatory framework for the multipurpose vessels.

Crew Comfort With up to 60 persons on board, working with complex equipment on highly demanding tasks, a lot is going on. To ensure the wellbeing of all on board, high-standard accommodation is provided, meeting MLC and COMF noise requirements. For the design and execution of the accommodation, an experienced interior designer ensures a high-quality finish. The result is a pleasant accommodation with minimal noise and vibration levels. Common spaces include a mess room as well as a bar and gymnasium. A hotel-style entertainment system is installed throughout the accommodation. A duty mess is also included to provide the deck crew with drinks and/or snacks during their shifts.

Mission Equipment The mission equipment prepared for the vessels includes: a vertical flexible fall pipe for rock installation, complete with fall pipe ROV to control and monitor the rock installation; a motion-compensated inclined fall pipe, designed for rock installation close to offshore structures; an offloading conveyor belt, enabling the installation of rock up to 41m outboard; cable-lay spread, typically suitable for inter-array cables; a trencher with dedicated LARS and work class ROV. To enable the mobilisation of the mission equipment using a plug-and-play method, an extended range of power supplies, auxiliaries and foundations is installed. Both to service the deck equipment and to execute subsea installation works, the vessels are fitted with a 40t active heave compensated knuckle boom crane. The vessel is prepared to carry all contemporary survey equipment to monitor the completed work. Redundant servers are installed for safe storage and processing of data and video. High-accuracy positioning of the vessels is achieved by the DP II Kongsberg dynamic positioning system. Multiple high-precision position reference systems, including DGPS, Cyscan, Radius and HIPAP, can be used. A simple but highly reliable diesel electric propulsion installation can be found below deck. It consists of two electrically driven 1,250kW azimuthing thrusters aft and two electrically driven 1,250kW bow thruster forward. Each thruster has its dedicated diesel generator engine and auxiliaries, limiting the consequences of a single failure in DP II mode to just one thruster. When maximum redundancy is not required, the machinery installation can be easily reconfigured, to an energy efficient operating mode.

impact. A lot of (sometimes minor) refinements have been implemented. The best example is the decision to fit the airconditioning system with an enthalpy wheel, exchanging energy between the exhaust air and the fresh inlet air. The implementation of the wheel enables a 40% reduction in cooling capacity, thus reducing energy consumption and emissions. These efforts have been confirmed by Bureau Veritas through the notations CLEANSHIP and GREEN PASSPORT.

RoToRTug’s ART 10 -15

The Innovation Tug The Truly inspiring rT Borkum, designed By Canadian roBerT allan, ComBines sophisTiCaTed design wiTh 10 Tonnes Bollard pull for limited docking assists.

bove water, most tugs look alike; underwater is where the magic happens. The rotortug’s unique performance capability and manoeuvrability are provided by the triangular propulsion configuration. in an interview, rotortug’s managing Director Evan Willemsen explains: “You have various thruster configurations when it comes to tugs. some tugs feature two thrusters in front, this is called a tractor and others feature two in the back, this is called an azimuth stern drive (asd.)”

Innovations

many tugs work with a skeg. The skeg ensures considerable indirect power at high speed, but also limits low-speed manoeuvring, making it more efficient not to have a skeg as this reduces response times. The Rotortug concept originates from replacing a skeg with a third thruster. This means that the vector response of the rotortug is high and the space required for manoeuvring is far smaller than for other tugs. This makes it ideal for lending assistance in confined areas. The rotortug’s ability to work over bow or stern with equal ease and the possibility of always working bow first enables tug masters to continuously operate within their comfort zone, whether securing a towline connection at the bow of an incoming container vessel or shifting from indirect to

direct mode at 8 knots. mr willemsen is quick to emphasise that “no other tug can do what this one does at high speed.” Another benefit of this innovative concept is maximum redundancy and superior safety options – it is always possible to move to a safer position. with power distributed over three thrusters, individual thruster sizes can be reduced. Distributing the installed power over three smaller units saves a considerable amount of capital expenditure. RT Borkum’s big brothers, with a length of 32m and with 80t bollard pull, belong to the most powerful and versatile harbour and escort tugs in the world. Mr Willemsen: “The Rotortug is also used in the offshore industry as an ‘in-field support vessel’ but at that point we supply a bigger tug, with a length of about 42m to 46m and a bollard pull of 100t. Three such tugs have recently been delivered to kT Maritime. Initial charterer feedback from the in-field operations claimed that similar operations had been executed in a third of the timeframe previously allotted for such operations.”

Three Thruster History

owner Ton kooren is the inventor of the three thruster concept. in 1998, he realised that deploying this new concept would gain him a significant competitive advantage in Bremerhaven and hamburg, germany.

The locks in the harbour made it difficult to manoeuver properly in the confined space available. The triple Z-drive arrangement enabled him to service similar-size vessels with fewer tugs in attendance, a continuous challenge with today’s escalating ship sizes. Mr Willemsen explains: “In the meantime, we updated the concept and that is when we really and truly took off. Today we work jointly with the naval architect robert allen in Vancouver, Canada, to improve our designs and concepts with each and every project. in this design-consultancy capacity, we provide recommendations to equipment manufacturers and shipyards, but our customers are in control.

anD workboaT company herman Senior bV has ordered its 12th Damen vessel, a multi cat 2712. The new vessel has been officially launched and was christened ‘panda’ on 23 march 2017. herman Senior has a tradition of naming its ships after famous bears. based in Dordrecht, herman Senior serves the dredging market, offshore wind farms and the oil & gas industry, with services including towage, plough dredging, anchor handling, geotechnical services, diving support and salvage & anchor recovery. Jack van Dodewaard, managing Director of herman Senior, comments, “The new multi cat 2712 has the advantage that she is suited for deep-sea work and can sail worldwide under her own keel. at the moment, we have vessels in latin america, australia, the middle east, north africa and

europe so this new addition will add to our flexibility. our current Damen multi cat ‘yogi’ has a working limit of 30 miles offshore. She has been active in South america for three years, so in the first instance we had to go to the expense of transporting her over there.” The multi cat 2712 has a bollard pull of 32t and two 290t/m cranes on board with a lifting capacity of 11.5t at 16.5m, making it suitable for a wide range of tasks. panda is largely a standard Damen vessel, which has been built for stock, although some extra navigational equipment has been added. mr van Dodewaard continues, “although we have a long history together, if Damen didn’t deliver the quality and service levels we expect, then we would look for another shipyard. a major advantage is that Damen understands our specific requirements. The drawings are automatically adapted each time and updated for the next vessel.”

The delivery follows Rimorchiatori Riuniti’s order for a second, identical vessel. Rimorchiatori Riuniti’s newest addition to the fleet has had some additional extras installed by damen. “these include fifi 1 oil recovery and escort notations as well as an aft winch meaning that she will be capable of some offshore duties too,” says Damen’s Regional sales manager andrea trevisan. “the Germania has also been built to be fully compliant with italian flag requirements.”

Genoa

the Germania – a powerful 80t bollard pull tug – will be put into action in the port of Genoa. As Italy’s largest seaport, Genoa is also the country’s busiest in terms of cargo tonnage. The port also handles a substantial

amount of passenger transport in the form of ferries and cruise ships.

Smart customisation

the second asd 2913 has a short delivery time but Damen has a plan. They will accomplish this swift turnaround by outfitting a built-for-stock vessel. “This is a very fast delivery. using our ‘smart customisation’, we will manage this challenge,” continues Mr Trevisan.

SPECIAL FEATURE

AUTOMATION IS AN OFTEN-OVERLOOKED ELEMENT IN SHIP DESIGN AND SHIPBUILDING.

s it doesn’t constitute a large part of the budget at the initial construction and design stage, it’s often low on the list of design considerations. Owners elect to use automation systems that come bundled in with other elements, such as the propulsion or cargo management systems. This can be a costly oversight. If the basics of automation are not addressed, ship owners and operators can miss out on significant efficiency savings and enhanced performance and even risk mild to mission-critical failures and delays. As the industry remains under pressure to find new areas of efficiency and cut costs without compromising safety, ship builders and designers can no longer afford to ignore the need to take automation seriously.

On today’s vessels, an increasing number of systems must work together to ensure optimal performance, safety and efficiency; this is achieved through integration and robust interfacing of automation systems. For example, systems that monitor a vessel’s engine temperature, pressure, fuel levels, viscosity and flow control would all be linked by an automation system which shows the ship systems’ status and the vessel’s overall performance. Other examples of automated processes include propulsion plant operation, auxiliary machinery operation, cargo on-and-off-loading operation, navigation and alarm systems management.

Hardware

Confusion

At the design stage, the basics of automation can ensure that these systems run smoothly and efficiently.

Software

Another frequently neglected basic is to take stock of the devices on board a vessel that control automated systems. Many systems, such as pumps or starter motors, are controlled by programmable logic controllers (PLCs), small devices that contain the software for the component. Very often, owners have very little idea what software goes with which piece of hardware, what backups may be available and how to input new software if necessary. A simple list of the automated systems onboard a vessel can go a long way if something goes wrong. Another quick fix would be to make sure that each component has a backup battery with charge monitoring, so that the programming isn’t lost if power is cut – meaning that the optimisation work done on the component is not undone. Simple fixes like this, while seeming obvious, demonstrate the value of bringing automation expertise to the table.

Automation Systems

Høglund engineer at work.

One of the most common problems occurs when selecting the hardware for automation systems. Many automation suppliers create their own hardware, which they then update every few years, meaning that the hardware becomes obsolete within the lifecycle of a vessel. This can make servicing and upgrading the systems costly and difficult. If, however, systems are based on commercially available hardware this problem can be alleviated, and replacing components is less of a headache.

This issue can be addressed at the design stage. Often, due to a lack of knowledge and understanding of

automation and electronics, ship designers specify very little regarding the automated systems to be installed onboard a vessel. This contrasts to the very exacting specifications that are created for speed, cargo capacity, etc. Owners, in turn, neglect to find out what software goes inside the hardware procured by shipyards on their behalf, which in turn makes issue resolution or optimisation difficult.

Sirius

Tanker and LNG shipping manager Sirius Shipping has experienced what happens when automation is not optimised. Over the years, Sirius Shipping had spent large quantities of time and money keeping automation systems on the M/T Olympus and M/T Tellus running. These ships featured highly interconnected electronic systems, which should have made them run more smoothly; however, they were becoming the most problematic vessels in the fleet due to frequent automation issues. Engineers often had to be called out to the vessels, sometimes requiring software updates onsite, which had to come from onshore offices. This resulted in costly downtime and delays, plus the additional costs and disruption of bringing engineers aboard. Sirius began looking for a company

On today’s vessels, an increasing number of systems must work together to ensure optimal performance, safety and efficiency. to refit the automation systems on both vessels – despite the complexity of this operation, the need for a change was clear.

Høglund

Høglund offered to complete the operation, estimated to take two weeks, in a single week. Despite scepticism from the shipyard and others over this timeframe, the operation was completed within eight days. Crucially, the systems also included Høglund Remote Connection. This allows engineers to remotely upgrade and fix software, which helps the crew adjust smoothly to the new systems. The benefits of working with a dedicated automation partner are already tangible for

Sirius. The power management systems are much more reliable, and enable discharging operations, for example, to run more efficiently. At times, the new systems enable the ships to run on two engines rather than three, which leads to greater fuel efficiency. Both ships’ automation systems are now secured for the next ten years, over which time maintenance is expected to be much more straightforward. This should last for the rest of the oil and chemical tankers’ operational lifespans, typically twenty years in total.

Essential

Whether at the newbuild or retrofit stage, bringing in the expertise of an automation partner can make a vast difference in a vessel’s reliability and efficiency for years to come. As the electronic systems on board modern vessels become increasingly complex, the need to address automation issues, from the basics to high-level optimisations, is a design consideration that can no longer be overlooked. i. hma.no

SPECIAL FEATURE

Today’s ship designers are incredibly exacting when it comes to the tools they use. rule checks and to create 3D models. During this process, any changes in the 2D drawings also had to be applied to the 3D models manually, and related analysis results needed to be calculated again. This also created headaches when it was time to check designs – hours were spent manually checking designs with structural databases and drawings. This took valuable time that the designers could have otherwise spent on developing new concepts. hhi recognised that the solution was to shift to 3D design tools that allowed designers to create ships in 3D from scratch, without needing to translate back and forth to 2D.

NAPA Steel

after extensive testing, hhi adopted napa steel’s 3D design interface, which represented a paradigm shift for hhi’s designers. related drawings and analysis models were created within the tool, which meant that checks were easier – and also that any changes made were synchronised throughout the design, leading to fewer errors. in addition, using napa steel meant that designers could create more complete ship design models earlier on. This allowed designers to estimate steel weight and required manpower for more accurate construction. altogether, throughput time on design at hhi in the early stages was reduced by 30%. This meant that the time saved could be re-invested in innovation, developing new ship designs

and improving engineering processes – unlocking the designers’ creativity.

Turning a Method on its Head

The challenge for napa had come much earlier. in 2013 napa understood that 3D modelling was set to be the future of ship design, but also realised that modern designers were increasingly demanding software that had a similar level of usability to commercial software; both because user-friendliness and ease of learning meant fewer errors, and also because designers needed the software that they used for several hours a day to be fun to use. To make this a reality, napa had to turn their traditional method of software development on its head. Taking cues from agile methodology, an ongoing and iterative approach to project management, napa began

NAPA software.

Napa.indd 51

breaking the stages of software development into small, fully functional chunks – known as minimum viable products. This was combined with the creation of early prototype mock-ups that could be tested with designers for usability without having to wait for a final product. This approach contrasted with the traditional ‘waterfall’ method of development, where a product is designed to a brief and user feedback is only available once it is finished. napa put its users at the centre of their design process and their feedback was integral to shaping each iteration of the software.

Paradigm Shift

This began with an ‘empathise phase’ where napa observed users around the world interacting with their software, and identified the issues they faced using the product. each version of the software was then tested with

a new group of users, who helped shape the next version. hhi was among these groups, and its designers contributed significantly to shaping the software that they would eventually use day-to-day. The result was a product that designers used to working in 2D could easily adjust to, and quickly get up to speed with its new capabilities. modern ship designers need powerful, responsive tools to help them collaborate and innovate, but they also need them to deliver the usability and convenience that they have come to expect from consumer technology. Both sides had to help each other relearn the way they worked to ensure the success of this paradigm shift; first to create and then implement software that was just as smart, flexible and capable as the designers using it. i. napa.fi

The IOWA, an iconic battleship that first saw service in the Second World War, is one of the most popular tourist attractions on the LA Waterfront at the Port of Los Angeles. The vessel’s on board power requirements are now supplied through the Los Angeles power grid, rather than diesel generators, a move that reduces noise and air pollution and enables the attraction to extend its hours of activity.

AMP

Cavotec and POLA have been working closely on AMP technologies since 2001. In 2004, at Pier 100, POLA introduced an AMP barge, which enabled China Shipping Container Line to become the first company

to connect one of its container ships to AMP at the quayside. POLA’s first AMP-fitted terminal came on line in 2007. While the US navy has been using shore power connection for many years, POLA was the first port in the world to introduce AMP for in-service container vessels. The innovation has helped establish AMP as a global environmental practice as well as legal requirement in California for container ships that frequently call at the state’s largest ports.

for container vessels, (as well as ferries, cruise ships and bulk carriers), and at ports, primarily in europe and the far east. Some 600 container vessels worldwide are now fitted with Cavotec AMP systems. “Cavotec is proud to be part of this journey with POLA, and we look forward to continuing our work on developing AMP for POLA’s needs in the years ahead,” Corbetta adds. i. cavotec.com

As Cavotec’s knowledge and experience of AMP systems has grown since its first installation in 1985, the Group has gone on to develop shore power connection systems

Finland’s Centennial Programme Partnership Wärtsilä will work in cooperation with the Seabin Project for the next three years and has sponsored both the city and port of helsinki’s involvement in the programme. The Wärtsilä - Seabin partnership aims at dynamic and versatile actions using Wärtsilä’s experience, established technologies, and know-how in environmental product development.

The water is then pumped back into the marina leaving litter and debris trapped in the catch bag to be disposed of properly. The Seabin also has the potential to collect a percentage of oils and pollutants floating on the water surface. The team at the Seabin Project are currently using 12v submersible water pumps, which have the option of using alternative and cleaner energy sources. This could involve using solar, wave or wind power technology, depending on the geographical location and currently available technologies.

Seabin Goes global

Seabin’s global pilot programme was launched with the presentation and installation of the latest prototype (v5 hybrid) in different locations around the globe. helsinki is one of these locations and the only one in the nordic countries. During the three-month test period, user experience and data will be gathered from the pilot partners before commercial sales of the Seabins commence.

Sponsorship of Helsinki

In order to work for cleaner maritime environments, Wärtsilä has also signed an agreement with the city of helsinki and the Port of helsinki to donate two pre-series Seabins for testing in helsinki during the trial period. four additional Seabins can then be installed after commercial sales begin. The city of helsinki and the Port of helsinki will manage the daily maintenance of the Seabins. “Wärtsilä is proud to join the Seabin Global Pilot Programme. As one of the marine industry’s leading solutions suppliers, it is our responsibility to supply

efficient products that help our customers protect the environment. environmental actions need to take place now and everyone can play a role, corporations as well as individuals,” says Jaakko eskola, President & CeO of Wärtsilä Corporation. “We are excited that Wärtsilä has joined the programme and even more proud that they are sponsoring an entire city with Seabins. We expect to see some amazing and dynamic collaborations in the very near future with Wärtsilä to further develop the technology, and to get the Seabins off the dock and into the waters,” says Pete Ceglinski, Co-founder and Managing Director at Seabin Project. i. wartsila.com i. seabinproject.com

V5 Hybrid Seabin Tech Overview The v5 Seabin is aptly named the v5 hybrid considering its adaptability in various conditions and its alternative energy options. The term “hybrid” is also fitting as the Seabin can adapt to multiple alternative energy options. Currently 110v/120v is needed to provide power to the electrical box, which is then converted to power the 12v submersible water pump. Wind and solar options are an effective solution for the running of the Seabin v5 hybrid in ideal geographical locations and the addition of a micro hydro turbine will also decrease its carbon footprint whilst reducing costs for the marinas running the Seabins. The flow rate is 15,000 liters per hour whilst drawing minimum current. The expected cost of running solely on shore power is around 30 to 50 eurocents per day. The woven cloth catch-bag which sits inside the v5 hybrid is easy to lift by one person even when full. It is made from a durable natural fibre called hessian or jute and is currently capturing micro plastics down to 2mm in diameter. The v5 Seabin is designed for marinas and calm areas. however, the plan is to modify technology for future Seabins so they can capture the floating litter desecrating the oceans.

Deep Green, Minesto’s unique technology for cost-effective electricity production from slowly flowing underwater currents.

SWeDISh-BASeD COMPAnIeS MIneSTO AnD STenA LIne hAve engaged in a joint project to invest in Wales’ transition to renewable energy.

tena Line is in the process of building an assembly hall in holyhead, which Minesto will utilise in their upcoming rollout of the company’s unique technology to generate clean electricity from the ocean. Minesto and Stena Line have signed an agreement in which Stena Line has committed to building an assembly hall on their land at the port of holyhead, Wales. The assembly hall will be leased to Minesto and used for the upcoming rollout of Deep Green, Minesto’s unique technology for cost-effective electricity production from slowly flowing underwater currents.

Holyhead Port

Minesto’s first commercial power plant array will be installed in holyhead Deep off the coast of north Wales. The company has recently announced plans to expand the project from 10MW to 80MW installed capacity. This expansion will allow Minesto’s power plants to supply as many as 80,000 Welsh households with locally produced, reliable and renewable electricity. The assembly hall in holyhead Port is a key part of this process, allowing both assembly and service & maintenance of the power plants to take place in holyhead Port. “We are very pleased to have finalised this agreement with Stena Line. With its direct quay access for offshore transports to and

prehistoric mAritime interconnectivity

The Black Sea Maritime Archaeology Project An internAtionAl teAm, including the university of southAmpton’s centre for mAritime ArchAeology And funded by chAritAble orgAnisAtion for marine research, the Expedition and Education Foundation (EEF), has been surveying the Bulgarian waters of the Black Sea. Thousands of years ago, large areas of land were inundated here as the water level rose following the last Ice Age.

his research has led to the discovery of more than 40 shipwrecks associated with the Ottoman and Byzantine Empires. Many of the discoveries are in excellent condition, thanks to the low oxygen levels at depths below 150 meters, which slows decay. The team has taken thousands of still photographs of the shipwrecks and used photogrammetry, a technique that uses software to calculate the positions of millions of points in space, to build 3D models of the discoveries. Hulls, masts, tillers, and rudders are all clearly discernible.

Based on board the Stril Explorer, an offshore vessel equipped with some of the most advanced underwater survey systems in the world, the international team of researchers is surveying the seabed using two Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs). One is optimised for high-resolution 3D photogrammetry-2 and video; the other, the Surveyor Interceptor ROV (SROV), is a vehicle developed by the survey companies MMT and Reach Subsea. The SROV ‘flies’ at four times the speed of conventional ROVs and carries an entire suite of geophysical instrumentation, as well as lights, highdefinition cameras and a laser scanner. In the course of the project, it has set new records for both depth (1,800m), sustained speed (over 6 knots), and has covered a distance of 1,250km.

Developed by the company’s Dynamic Positioning unit, SmartPredict is designed to provide safer and more efficient vessel operations by reducing the risks associated with manoeuvring. The system displays the vessel’s predicted future position and heading, and uses proven dynamic positioning (DP) analysis algorithms to evaluate forces affecting the vessel, thereby providing advanced motion prediction. SmartPredict also features a configurable prediction time display. i. wartsila.com

Boasting twelve new components, the XTR Series is versatile and ready for renewable energy systems and local area networks. The WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM 750 XTR combines the benefits of the successful WAGO-I/ O-SYSTEM with key features for extraordinary dependability in tough environments: These include extreme resistance at temperatures from -40°C to +70°C, immunity to interference up to 1 kV (< 60 V, Class VW1) and 5 kV (≥ 60 V, Class VW3), as well as vibration resistance up to 5g. The system requires minimal space and is distinguished by low energy and maintenance costs. These benefits, along with incredible system uptime, increase productivity. i. wago.com

FleetGuard

Health Monitoring System

FleetGuard, MeteoGroup’s interactive tool for live fleet monitoring, planning and vessel optimisation, helps shipping companies fully comply with the EU and IMO monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) regulation, which requires companies to report on the CO2 emissions of its vessels as of 1 January 2018. Its flexible and dynamic noon reporting system and pivot-style database collects all data required by the verification body and an API for third party systems offers an easy connection for transfer of compulsory monitoring data. i. meteogroup.com

The system has been developed as a complement to the earlier SKF Multilog Online Systems IMx-S, and boasts a number of improvements. Firstly, it now has eight channels rather than 16 or 32. This may sound like a retrograde step, but it is actually more suited to this type of application: the Multilog Online Systems IMx-8 can be installed closer to the application being monitored, meaning fewer cables and simpler installation. It is more compact and rugged, making it suitable for marine use, and it meets the stringent environmental requirements set by the classification societies as part of type approval process. i. skf.com
