The industry has a troubled past which includes dumping waste where it doesn’t belong and endangering, for example, fragile reefs in the process. Times are changing, however, and the Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) claims that the cruise business has reformed itself. According to CLIA, the cruise industry has been very proactive in its efforts to minimise all types of pollution at sea. Things have certainly been moving in the right direction as state-of-the-art environmental equipment is now standard on the ships. There are grinders for food and product waste, separators for galley products and recycling, crushers for glass, aluminium and cardboard materials; incinerators for food, cardboard, paper and other waste by-products; and sophisticated engine room equipment to reduce or eliminate liquid discharge. Still, in the Climate Change Era, a huge cruise ship does not sound like the most environmental choice out there. Nobody builds them bigger than Royal Caribbean – and nobody has more to lose if the public suddenly turns its back on the ships. While designing the Oasis-class behemoths, the executives of RCCL understood full well that the world would be looking at these ships with a magnifying glass. Therefore, the entire project was geared towards making a ship duo that would possess a decidedly green streak. RCCL even hired an environmentalist guru to lead the eco-charge. The STX Europe’s shipyard in Turku embraced the challenge of making its most environmental cruiser yet – and succeeded in the task. Per passenger, Oasis of the Seas boasts a 15 % – 25 % energy and carbon footprint improvement in comparison to its predecessors. The footprint is brought down by using the latest commercially available equipment, such as common rail diesel technology for emission control. The ship is also equipped for alternative fuels. The green upgrades have garnered approving nods from environmental organisations such as the Friends of the Earth. Still, there is work to be done with regards to the big picture. For instance, Oasis has a plug-in feature that would allow it to run on electricity rather than fuel when in port – but, as of yet, the ports aren’t ready to handle the load. SAMI J. ANTEROINEN

Photos: Royal Caribbean International B ehind the scenes, the industry players are hard at work trying to figure out the roadmap of the future – what will cruise ships be like in 2010’s, and beyond? 6 seatec 2/2010 Super Size Me BETWEEN GOING BIG AND GOING GREEN, THE CRUISE LINES ARE NOT EXACTLY GOING STEADY With Oasis of the Seas leading the charge – and Allure of the Seas waiting in the wings – the super-sized ships are ruling the seven seas. The winds have been favourable for a long time: according to Cruise Lines International Association, worldwide cruising has grown annually to the tune of 7 % for the past 20 years. But the global recession has turned the tides somewhat. Cruise lines have been able to fill their vessels during the recession, but only by offering steep price discounts. Yields have come down, and cruise lines have put new acquisitions on ice – or so it seems. The cruise industry is dominated by two players, Carnival and Royal Caribbean, who control 70 % of the market. Both companies operate mostly in the contemporary segment and woo the everyman’s wallet. The old adage states that cruise goers are either “newlywed, nearly dead or over fed,” but industry executives feel
Page 7
that there’s room on the boat for others as well. Only 20 % of Americans have ever taken a cruise, which has led some experts to argue that the market is underpenetrated. At present, only 5 % of American vacationers opt for a cruise every year. In addition to honey-mooners, the cruise lines are reaching out to the younger target groups with fervour now. The fight for the hearts and minds of the youthful demographic drives the on-going march of multiple (often extreme sounding) activities, super spas and entertainment. Another change in the cruise profile can be observed in the duration of the trip: young professionals, for one, can ill afford the time to sail down the coast of South America for three weeks. This is one reason why Oasis is scheduled to make only seven-day runs around the Caribbean. THE BIGGER THEY COME What remains unsolved, however, is the question of size. Can cruise lines continue to go big – which is often justified with economies of scale – or will they look for other options? Micky Arison, chief executive of Carnival, has speculated that the industry has gone too far in the size race – referring, specifically, to the rival RCCL’s Oasis-class. While Arison believes that there is still a market for bigger ships, he contends that Oasis is so big that it might just feel like “a huge mall” for your average cruise-goer. Richard Fain, Royal Caribbean’s number one man, has countered that any ship will have its ups and downs over its considerable lifespan, arguing that Oasis of the Seas will deliver one of the highest returns on investment the industry has ever seen. In fact, RCCL is so convinced that Oasis is the way to go that it has started an “Oasisation” process of older models as well. Freedom of the Seas and Liberty of the Seas (originally launched 2005 and 2006, respectively) are set to go to dryseatec 2/2010 7

dock in the first quarter of 2011 and RCCL will reload the ships with a number of key innovations from Oasis. A major focus will, of course, be on entertainment and activities, and there will be large outdoor movie screens pool side, like those found in the Oasis aqua-theatre. Also, there are 3D movie screens and projectors in the main theatre, a children’s puppet show on both ships and even a nursery. In addition, the interactive digital signage on Oasis, which was touted as one of the top cruise innovations of 2009, will also be part of the Freedom and Liberty new programming. Other cruise lines are following suite with improved features and several newto-cruise ship amenities. For instance, the NCL Epic – which was launched in June – features the first ice bar at sea. (And yes, the bar, walls, tables and stools are all made out of ice.) At the same time, older ships are being refitted with all the works from waterslides to nightclubs. MULTITASKING TO THE MAX Still, big and splashy is not the only game in town – at least if you ask the designers and builders of these floating wonders. STX Europe, the number one builder of luxury cruise ships in the world, has been exploring other options as well. In March 2009, STX introduced its latest concept: the xpTRAY, where all public passenger areas and activities are based in one location, on a wide “tray”, if you will. Here’s the math: reducing ship volume by up to 15% results in higher space ratios and more efficient service operations. STX concept comes from the common sense observation that ships, no matter how large, have limited space. Therefore, cruise ship design should embrace simplicity and versatility. Centralising all the restaurants, for example, means you have a central galley that is more efficient in both energy and size. The xpTRAY offers economies of scale, as well, but with a lower gross tonnage compared with a standard postPanamax cruise vessel, delivering the total package at 130,000 GT rather than 160,000 GT. This results in substantial savings in e.g. building costs, electrical load and propulsion power. GREENER HORIZONS STX is clearly preparing for a leaner, greener cruise circuit where the emphasis is more and more on efficiency and environmental issues. The company has an ambitious strategic environmental plan – called Ecorizon – which is based on STX Europe’s latest innovations and continuous R&D. Ecorizon aims to protect water and its ecosystems, preserve the natural resources of the Earth, and limit the impact of the human activity. This mindset is already evident on Oasis, which shows a 15%–25% energy and carbon footprint improvement (per passenger) in comparison to its predecessors. In fact, the Oasis design effort is the most extensive for any cruise ship – ever. While still not exactly “Jolly Green Giant,” the ship is e.g. equipped for alternative fuels and features integrated advanced waste handling systems for all waste streams. ? SAMI J.

ICE TRIALS DURING ICE WINTER D uring the last winter 2009–2010, ILS Oy carried out a number of ice trials for ships of ILS´s design. The ice trials of IB Varandey, an ice breaker built by Keppel Singmarine for Lukoil, were conducted in November in Russian Arctic. The ice trials for M/S Nämdö, the first of the ice breaking passenger ferries built by a Finnish yard Uudenkaupungin Työvene Oy, were carried out in Stockholm Archipelago in February. The results were good and the shipyard and owners, Waxholms Ångfartygs Ab, were very satisfied. The sister vessel M/S Gällnö was delivered early May 2010. Seven days ice trial program for M/S Skarven, a car/passenger ferry for Åland, was carried out In the middle of February in co-operation between the owners – Ålands Landskapsregering, the building shipyard – Western Shipbuilding Yard BLRT Group (Klaipeda, Lithuenia), the classifica10 seatec 2/2010 tion Society – Lloyds Register of Shipping (London), the propulsion unit manufacturer – Rolls Royce Oy (Rauma) and designer ILS Oy (Turku). The tests confirmed that a double ended ferry design concept with Beacon Finland Ltd Takes Part in International Marine Design Projects Established in 1987, Beacon Finland Ltd is a privately owned, independent naval architectural consulting company located in Rauma, Finland. The company offers a wide range of high-quality marine design and consulting solutions. A ccording to Beacon Finland’s Managing Director Tuija Hörkkö, Beacon works increasingly in cooperation with shipowners, shipyards and ship equipment manufacturers. “These have been busy times for the company,” she mentions, between two urgent business meetings. In 2009, Beacon Finland Ltd was awarded the International Company of the Year prize by the Chamber of Commerce – the first-ever prize of its kind in the Rauma region. VERSATILE PROJECTS The main activities of Beacon Finland Oy are ship design – for both conventional and specialised ships –, design and sales of ship equipment, plus supervision and management of ship repair and conversions. With a solid theoretical and practical background in naval architecture and manufacturing of marine industry products, Beacon Finland’s personnel has the skills and know-how for reliable and innovative solutions. The company currently employs eight professionals. controllable pitch propellers in azimuth thrusters in both ends give a excellent ice breaking performance in all conditions. M/S Skaven made a 8.5 knots speed in 36 cm level ice! ? “Wide and deep knowledge and practical experience in naval architecture and shipyard work ensure superior results,” Hörkkö asserts. “Our designers have a very long and profound experience in domestic as well as foreign projects. In their work, they use the latest design tools and computer programs. Beacon Finland also has a wide network of skilled freelance designers and partner companies.” The marine equipment designed by Beacon Finland over the years includes fixed and steerable propeller nozzles, conventional rudders, propulsion applications for drill ships, and innovative ATB-coupling systems for pusher-barge assemblies. ?

“NILAYA“, BALTIC 112 REICHEL PUGH – NAUTA – Launched Successfully B altic Yachts and Nauta Yacht Design are pleased to announce that on the 3rd of May the Baltic 112 Reichel Pugh Nauta, named Nilaya, was successfully launched at Baltic Yachts new facilities in Jakobstad. Baltic 112 Nilaya is set to be one of the most high-performance sailing boats of its size. It’s a superyacht that can deliver high performance with all the pedigree of a stripped-out racer. When high performance is high on the priorities, carbon-fibre pre-preg composite construction is the obvious way to go. Nauta Yacht Design conceived the general arrangement plans and the sleek lines of “NILAYA” teaming up with Reichel Pugh Yacht Design who has been responsible of the Naval Architecture. The two design studios already have a solid collab12 seatec 2/2010 oration history in the design of high performance cruiser racers. The Baltic 112 Nilaya will have a displacement of just 90 tons and incorporates a lifting keel, capable of reducing the maximum draft of 5.50 metres to just 3.50 metres. At the same time the yacht offers the most esteemed guests some elements which are normally the characteristics of yachts in a higher L.O.A. range: the bright deck house where one can enjoy an allaround sight, as if you were outside; the four spacious guest cabins, with a large and elegant master cabin; three comfortable cabins for crew with the Captain’s double cabin; the functional and huge galley. Care for details, even the smallest, a rational and functional interior arrangement, a simple, synthetic yet timeless style are the ingredients of this spectacular looking superyacht. This is the first time Nauta and Baltic have been working together and quoting Baltic’s Managing Director Marjo Keiramo and Nauta’s C.E.O. Mario Pedol “it has been really a pleasure working together during the three years building period”. Also Nigel Ingram of Marine Construction Management has been working closely with the project management of the 112 build. At the incoming Monaco Yacht Show in September 2010 Baltic Yachts will have the pleasure of presenting this stunning yacht. ? More information: www.balticyachts.fi and www.nautayachts.com

Curbing ship emissions is rising on the agenda all over the world. At present, ships are responsible for 2.7% of global warming emissions. International Maritime Organisation (IMO) estimates that these emissions could increase by as much as 150-250% by the year 2050 – if the international seaborne trade continues to show robust growth. seatec 2/2010 15 Photo: STX Europe
Page 16
T he IMO has been criticised that it has been too slow to forge international rules to curb maritime emissions. IMO Secretary-General Efthimios E. Mitropoulos has responded by saying that global issues demand global solutions. According to Mitropoulos, the shipping world should not work in a fragmented manner, but as “responsible members of a community that has a role to play in this effort.” The European Union is not willing to sit by the sidelines, just waiting to see if IMO can get its ranks in order. The EU has stated that it will act on its own if neither the IMO nor international climate negotiations succeed in curbing emissions from ships. The EU already aims to add aviation to its emissions trading scheme, starting from 2012. SAFEGUARDING THE BALTIC SEA The concern of the EU is understandable, especially from the perspective of conservation of the Baltic Sea, the “Mare Nostrum” of the Union. At present, the Baltic Sea has some of the busiest shipping routes in the world. According to HELCOM, around 2,000 ships are normally at sea at any given time on the Baltic Sea. Cargo and container traffic is expected to 16 seatec 2/2010 triple and oil transportation is estimated to increase by 40% by 2017. The large number of islands, narrow straits, routes that are difficult to navigate and ice covered in the winter, makes the Baltic Sea a high risk area for accidents. The Baltic Sea, with its unique flora and fauna, has a very slow exchange of water which makes the sea sensitive to changes in the environment caused by pollution. An accident in the Baltic Sea could, therefore, have devastating impacts on the sea environment. According to environmental organisation Baltic Sea 2020, seaborne transport contributes to 1.5 – 3 % of the total emissions of carbon dioxide. Fuel consumption in shipping also contributes considerably to global emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulphur oxides. In 2005, the European Commission reported that nitrogen and sulphur oxide emissions from international shipping around Europe will by 2020 have surpassed the emissions from all landbased sources in the EU. Nitrogen oxides and sulphur oxides are especially problematic since they have been proven to have an acidifying effect on soil and water. As shipping is one of the main contributors to nitrogen oxide deposition in the Baltic Sea, it is thereby a huge contributor to eutrophication. WANTED: GREENER FUEL The EU emissions restrictions will tighten considerably in the future, with the first regulations taking effect in 2015. As always, change brings about also opportunity. For instance, the market for liquefied natural gas (LNG) market is expected to benefit from the new scenario. Ships powered by LNG are desirable over traditional ones, since natural gas does not contain sulphur, dust particles or heavy metals. One of the players looking to explore the markets is the Finnish natural gas company Gasum. The company started production at Porvoo’s new natural liquefaction plant on 10 June and is planning to add a terminal in order to deploy LNG as a fuel for maritime traffic. Director Björn Photos: Gasum
Page 17
Ahlnäs believes that a low-emission alternative will be a hot commodity in the marketplace. LNG-ships are also practical: “LNG-powered ships do not need expensive additional equipment in order to stay within the emission limits,” Ahlnäs comments. Gasum has been spearheading the cause of LNG for a while now: in addition to the new LNG production plant, investments have been made in LNG special transport. STX GOES LNG Also shipyards are taking notice of LNG. In June, STX Europe secured a contract with Solstad Rederi AS to build an innovative LNG-powered Platform Supply Vessel (PSV). The vessel is of STX Europe PSV 12 LNG design and scheduled for delivery in late 2011. Roy Reite, President of STX Europe’s Offshore & Specialised Vessels business area, comments that the order confirms the company’s strong position in design and building of environmentally friendly vessels. “LNG is a technology in which we already have a strong track record,” Reite says. In addition to LNG, the vessel will be able to run on biofuel and ordinary marine diesel oil. STX Europe’s gas tank solution is also unique in the sense that the LNG tank does not reduce the cargo capacity on board. In fact, the new design has a higher cargo capacity than other vessels of relative size. FUN IN THE SUN Still, some innovators are looking even further to champion the cause of cleaner waves. In March, PlanetSolar unveiled a 100-foot-long catamaran at the HDW Shipyard in Germany. The catamaran is crowned with about 5,300 square feet of solar panels made up with some 38,000 sun power cells. Each of the cells offers an efficiency of at least 22 percent, making them the highest-efficiency solar cells commercially available. On a cloudy day, batteries below the deck get going – and they can push on for several days without direct sunlight. Also Oasis of the Seas is flirting with the sun – there are 21,000 square feet of thin solar film onboard the world’s largest cruise ship. The solar panels produce enough power to light the ship’s Royal Promenade and Central Park areas. ? SAMI J. ANTEROINEN seatec 2/2010 17

Ship Classification to Incorporate Inspection of LNG Fuel Systems Bureau Veritas is a professional organisation for the classification and verification of maritime and other technologies. These days, Bureau Veritas’ inspectors are getting more and more familiar with LNG fuel systems on board ships. T he efficiency of international maritime transports is closely connected to the free movement of ships on the seas. This in turn is supported by universal standards and regulations, often relating to requirements of quality, health, environment-friendliness and safety in maritime transportation. As the utilisation of LNG (liquefied natural gas) as ship fuel is becoming more commonplace, classification bodies such as Bureau Veritas are preparing to classify LNG-fuelled ships and their gas systems as needed. “Bureau Veritas has inspected and classified LNG-based fuel systems on ships since 2004. At first, such fuel systems were only being utilised on board a number of LNG tanker vessels,” recounts Mr. Olli Kalja la, Marine Chief Executive for Bureau Veritas’ Branch Office for Finland. “As International Maritime Organisation (IMO) will impose stricter rules (sulphur content of fuel to be below 0.1 percent) for ship emissions within the Baltic Sea emission control area by January 1st 2015, the use of LNG fuel on ships is becoming more popular. Already, LNG is envisaged for a broader range of vessels, in particular Ro-Ro ships, car and passenger ferries and supply ships,” Kaljala mentions. “So far, no BV classed Finnish vessels utilise LNG as ship fuel. Among the local 20 seatec 2/2010 Ras Laffan Industrial City is Qatar’s main site for production of liquefied natural gas, with an annual output of 4.7 million tons of LNG. ship owners interest in using LNG as fuel is increasing, Viking Line for one is considering building a new ferry capable of running on LNG fuel – but no final decision has been made on this.” SAFETY IS CRUCIAL Bureau Veritas has rules for designing and building dual-fuel systems onboard vessel and also specific detailed instructions for carrying out annual inspections of the LNG fuel systems of ships. “When designing and building a gas fuel system to a ship, risk analyses are required to be conducted in order to substantiate the adequate safety and dependability of the propulsion system of the vessel.” “During vessels’ life-time, the safety of these systems will be inspected in the course of our normal annual ship inspections, according to 5-year classification period,” notes Kaljala. In general, Bureau Veritas’ branch office for Finland currently carries out approximately 400 ship inspections and audits annually (Finland and Baltic States). “On LNG-fuelled ships, the LNG storage tanks might be situated on deck – but they may also be inside of the ship’s hull. This depends very much on the type of the ship. The size of the fuel tanks is also a factor: LNG tanks take up almost twice as much space as tanks filled with traditional bunker oil for transporting the ship the same distance,” Kaljala calculates. GOING FOR FLEXIBILITY In maritime transports, the use of LNG as ship fuel may be hindered by the limited availability of LNG distribution infrastructure – at least at first. “Because of this, it seems that LNG fuel might be best suited for ships on regular lines.” “So far, most of the LNG-fuelled ships have been fitted with dual fuel engines. If necessary, they could resort to the use of auxiliary fuels,” Kaljala explains. ? MERJA KIHL ARI MONONEN Photo: Exxon Mobil

Eclipse to the rescue! THE NEWEST SOLSTICE-CLASS SHIP MAKES ITS DEBUT WITH STYLE It was a cruise ship launch like no other. And it was a storybook rescue worthy of a king. Celebrity Eclipse, the latest in a series of five stunning Solstice Class ships from Celebrity Cruises, was all set to embark on a twoday promotional cruise on April 22-24, when she received a more urgent mission. As luck would have it, 2,200 vacationers were stranded in Spain due to the travel disruption caused by the volcanic eruption in Iceland. Celebrity Eclipse promptly left her homeport of Southampton, England, and headed for Bilbao, Spain. 22 seatec 2/2010

Celebrity Cruises and four travel firms paid for the rescue mission. Richard D. Fain, Chairman of the Celebrity Cruises, was also on board the most luxurious rescue boat of all time. He noted that there could hardly be a better way to bless a new ship than by doing “a small bit of good in a very big problem.” Upon returning home to Southampton on 23 April, everybody agreed that this was one maiden voyage to remember. Celebrity’s President & CEO Dan Hanrahan commented that the company is proud of its tradition of planning and implementing memorable ship launches, but the launch of Celebrity Eclipse was particularly unique. “The atmosphere has been fantastic among the guests and our crew. Everyone feels they are part of something truly special.” ANSWERING THE CALL As the actual formal naming ceremony took place three days later, the momentous occasion was seriously in danger of being “eclipsed” by the previous high seas heroics. The Bilbao rescue mission was still very much a hot topic as glasses were raised in honour of the ship. At the ceremony, there were nearly 2,000 primarily UK-based travel agents, press and other special guests. The vessel will be the first in the Celebrity fleet to be dedicated to the UK market. “What a rare and notable way for Celebrity Eclipse to begin her sailing career,” mused Richard D. Fain. “Who knew that a $700-million ship would start her career as emergency transport? One of the particular pleasures was seeing how responsive our exceptional crew was, and how much effort seatec 2/2010 23

they contributed to make sure that these unexpected guests had the time of their lives.” timent: Dan Hanrahan shared a similar sen“Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine we could be so impacted by a volcano whose name I can’t even begin to pronounce.” With the launch of the Eclipse, Celebrity Cruises achieved “a perfect 10” – the company now boasts a fleet of 10 ships. MAKING MEMORIES Presiding over the naming ceremony was ship’s godmother Emma Pontin, oceanracing yachtswoman and breast cancer survivor. Pontin noted that for her, life has become more precious than ever: “I now want memories, not just dreams. And memories are what will be created on this magnificent ship,” she said in a poignant address. Memories as vivid as green grass in a summer breeze: like her sister ships – Celebrity Solstice and Celebrity Equinox – also Celebrity Eclipse presents The Lawn Club, with real, growing grass (an industry first). In addition, the new ship features the Hot Glass Show, a glassblowing show and studio developed with The Corning Museum of Glass; 10 top-notch dining venues, including Qsine; and widely varied entertainment, including shows with breathtaking aerial acts. With Solstice-class ships the grass is not the only thing that is green: the ships come equipped with Photovoltaic System, an optimised hull design, highly-efficient hull coatings and lighting system using LED lights. With this set of innovations, Solstice-class ships deliver 30 % energy savings in comparison to the average cruise ship. DARING THE RIVER While sounding dire and dramatic, the rescue mission down south did not provide seatec 2/2010 25

a great challenge to the seaborne skills of the crew. In fact, the tightest spot for Celebrity Eclipse – in fact, the tightest spot she is likely encounter in all her days at sea – came and went on River Ems in Germany. It’s a rite of passage known as “conveyance”, as the ship leaves the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg and head up the river to the sea. During the March conveyance, there were as few as two feet between each side seatec 2/2010 27
Page 28
of the 1,040-foot-long, 121-foot-wide Celebrity Eclipse and the locks. The depth of the river and the draft of the ship allowed for mere inches – or less – beneath the ship. These factors and others led Celebrity Cruises and Meyer Werft to essentially create a science all their own, carefully monitoring the position of the moon and tidal conditions to identify the precise moment when the depth of the river is ideal for the ship to set sail from the shipyard. Celebrity Eclipse Captain Panagiotis Skylogiannis pointed out that cruise ship captains generally do not expect to encounter the challenges the conveyance presents. Although the good captain was accustomed to docking in tight ports, he admitted that his preference is to be “chasing sunshine in the open sea”. Skylogiannis also acknowledged – with a smile – that he should not sleep on the job as the president of the company was onboard. Still, the captain was confident that the conveyance would be a successful one – after all, the two sister ships had taken the same route in their day. BUSY INAUGURAL In the end, everything proceeded without a hitch. Thousands of people lined the banks of River Ems to see Celebrity Eclipse embark on her adventure. After arriving in Emshaven, Netherlands, the ship performed a series of sea trials, followed by a string of promotional events in Hamburg, Germany, and finally headed to Southampton. During her inaugural season, Celebrity Eclipse will offer cruises in the Mediterranean, Canary Islands, Scandinavia and Russia, as well as short cruise options to Le Havre (for Paris), France, and Cork, Ireland, all roundtrip from Southampton. The ship will present Caribbean cruises roundtrip from Miami, Florida, after crossing the Atlantic in November. ? SAMI J.

The Two Largest English Channel Ferries under Construction at STX Rauma Shipyard 30 seatec 2/2010 STX Finland’s Rauma shipyard is currently constructing two large car and passenger ships ordered by P&O Ferries for the Dover – Calais route. Each ship will have the capacity to take 180 lorries in addition to 195 cars and 1,750 passengers.

An aerial view of STX Finland’s Rauma shipyard. Photos: STX Europe A ccording to Mr. Markku Uusitalo, Project Manager for STX, the construction work of the two vessels was awarded to STX Rauma shipyard on the basis of a bidding competition. “The project started on 7 August, 2008. This is when the contract for the two vessels was signed,” Uusitalo recounts. Last winter, STX Finland’s Rauma shipyard was engaged in the hull construction and outfitting work of the first vessel. “The first of the two vessels is now nearing completion. It was floated out on 8 June, 2010. At present, the ship is still undergoing some paintwork for the machinery compartments.” “By autumn, the public compartments on the ship – including restaurants, galleys and cabins – will be completed. Sea Trial test will be carried out in October.” The finishing touches are to be ready by December 2010. In early January, the ship will be delivered to the customer. The second vessel is also under construction. Its production was started on 8 December 2009. This ship is scheduled to be completed by September 2011. An adequate share of blocks for the second vessel was completed by early summer of 2010 for the Rauma shipyard to be able to lay down the keel on 11 June, soon after the first vessel was launched. Mr. Uusitalo affirms that the construction of both ships is proceeding on schedule. SHIPS DESIGNED FOR LOW-SULPHUR FUELS P&O Ferries is a leading ferry operator, with a network of 10 routes linking Britain with Ireland, France, Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands. The company operates a fleet of 27 multi-purpose and freight ferries and employs 4,500 people. It is part of Ports & Freezone World, a company ultimately owned by the Government of Dubai. seatec 2/2010 31

High Efficiency & Environmental Value STX’s contract with P&O Ferries states that since the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) intends to impose new strict limits for sulphur dioxide emissions from ships – the maximum limit being 1.5 percent of sulphur allowed in ship fuels in sensitive Emission Control Areas – the design of the two new vessels will take into account even the forthcoming stringent environmental requirements. This means that low-sulphur fuels will become essential. “The auxiliary engines will be designed for classification in accordance with TIER II class regulations,” Uusitalo assures. “The main engines of the ships are direct jet-stream engines manufactured by MAN Corporation. They will be fine-tuned for the use of low-sulphur fuel.” Other steps, too, are being taken to protect the marine environment. The sewage from the two vessels will not be discarded at sea but will be taken to port for proper handling and disposal. DESIGNING FOR SAFETY The main design of the ships was carried out at STX’s Rauma shipyard. www.aalborg-industries.com Up to today, we here in Rauma office have sold about 2000 exhaust gas economizers and oil-fired boilers with auxiliary equipment to various ships worldwide. MISSION TM OM-TCi sets the new standard for fuel economy in marine boilers. With upgraded thermal design, it provides high efficiency of 89 - 92% depending on different boiler load conditions. The operating excellence is to save energy and reduce emissions by less fuel consumption.

If ever there is a fire on board, the ships will be able to return to port unaided when necessary,” Uusitalo explains. “Moreover, the vessels will conform to Lloyd’s SDA (Ship Design Agent) hull design specification. The strength of the ship’s hull structure has been defined by the utilisation of an analysis model. This has never before been done for ROPAX ships.” The two vessels are sister ships and, consequently, quite identical. “The design work for the ships started in September 2008. Construction work commenced on 3 March, 2009. Part of the design work continued throughout the first phases of construction. The basic design of the vessels was completed by autumn 2009.” The value of the two-vessel project for P&O Ferries is some 360 million euros, with an employment impact of approximately 1,800 man-years. These 49,000 gt vessels will have a vehicle capacity of 3,700 lane meters. seatec 2/2010 33
Page 34
ADVANCES IN TECHNOLOGY The ships are being built and designed in parallel, partly at the same time. Both ships are equipped with four main engines, with a total propulsion power of 30,400 kW (kilowatts). The ships will become the largest car & passenger ferries utilised on cross-Channel routes, with an overall hull length of 213 metres each. STX Europe is a leading designer and builder of passenger and car ferries. Of the 20 largest ferries in the world, twelve have been built by STX Europe. “Before this, STX has constructed a number of other kinds of Channel ferries. Some of them are equipped with somewhat similar types of docking structures.” “For the P&O Ferries’ vessels, one of the special features is the high power of the bow propellers,” Uusitalo points out. 34 seatec 2/2010 There are three bow thrusters for each ship, yielding a total power of nine megawatts. NEW INVESTMENTS Mr. Uusitalo mentions that the two vessels are being constructed by 500 professionals, 300 of whom are on STX’s payroll. The largest subcontractor is the Helsinkibased Merima Oy who is in charge of deck construction. “A number of blocks of the ships have been built by STX’s Turku shipyard, whereas a couple of blocks were purchased from Poland. The blocks have been transferred to Rauma shipyard by utilising the M/V Aura transport vessel, or with the aid of barges from the Turku shipyard,” notes Uusitalo. In the autumn of 2009, an automated profile cutting line worth approximately two million euros was installed in the Parts Fabrication department of Rauma shipyard. Since then, it has been utilised in the construction work of the second vessel of the P&O Ferries project. The aim of this large-scale cutting line investment is to enhance quality, productivity and occupational safety. According to Mr. Uusitalo, the employment situation at Rauma shipyard looks good. The order of a research vessel received by STX Finland to be built for the South African Ministry of the Environment will employ the Rauma shipyard even after the P&O Ferries order has been completed. ?

J.J. SIETAS: German Shipyard Successfully Enters The Special-purpose Vessels Segment A view of Sietas’ shipyard compound in Hamburg-Neuenfelde. 36 seatec 2/2010
Page 37
In early 2009 perspectives looked rather bleak for the Sietas Group, Germany’s eldest shipbuilding venture with roots dating back to 1635: Heavy losses had been generated in 2007 and 2008, the order book was diminishing rapidly, and the yard had obviously approached new markets beyond the fiercely competitive container ship building too slowly. Today, only one and a half years later, the situation is quite different: Sietas has dynamically entered the special-purpose vessels segment, a number of new orders were obtained, and the recently delivered commuter ferry M/V “Uthlande” has turned into an instant marketing success.

Page 38
Photo: W.D.R. The implementation of sectional ship building was a cornerstone of Sietas’ recent restructuring program. Here the prefabricated deckhouse and bridge of the M/V “Uthlande” are just being lifted onto the hull. I t was probably one of the most important praises that Sietas ever received in its more than 375 years of history: “This ship does not just fulfil our expectations, it exceeds them,” said Axel Meynköhn, CEO of the German ferry operator Wyker Dampfschiffs-Reederei Föhr-Amrum GmbH, in a speech delivered minutes before the official christening of the M/V “Uthlande” on 11 June. The 3,300 GT commuter ferry, which was designed for island trade off the coast of SchleswigHolstein in Northern Germany, stands as a symbol of the new beginning at Sietas: “Uthlande” constituted Sietas’ first new 38 seatec 2/2010 order contract obtained after the implementation of a sharp restructuring program in spring 2009. She is, at the same time, the yard’s first reference in the ferry segment, and she proves that Sietas is a globally competitive force: Her contract – worth about 16.5 million euros – was obtained in sharp competition with other yards, among others from Latin America and Eastern Europe. THOROUGH SHIPYARD RESTRUCTURING Founded in 1635 and still family-owned, Sietas Group constitutes Germany’s eldest shipbuilding venture. Based in HamburgNeuenfelde it comprises the J.J. Sietas KG Schiffswerft GmbH & Co. as well as three subsidiaries: Neuenfelder Maschinenfabrik GmbH (a supplier of special hydraulic equipment for ships), Kommanditgesellschaft Norderwerft GmbH & Co. (a company specialised in repairs and conversions) as well as GfA Gesellschaft für Asset-Management mbH. Until recently, Sietas concentrated mainly on the construction of container ships, a market segment which has become increasingly dominated by huge shipyard corporations from Far East

Sietas Group – which had recorded a loss already for the 2007 fiscal year – was rammed very severely by the downturn, and only a thorough redevelopment and realignment concept, launched early last year, succeeded to secure the shipyard’s viability. A new Managing Board comprising Rüdiger Fuchs – a former Airbus manager – and Rüdiger Wolf took office on 01 March 2009, and within few months the entire enterprise underwent deep restructuring: The product portfolio was reshuffled with a new focus on special-purpose ships rather than container vessels, costs were drastically cut and the production changed to an industrial concept facilitating shorter processing times, higher productivity and reduced inventories. A key objective was the reduction of construction times from 13 to ten months through the implementation of latest industrial concepts allowing efficient workflow management and sequential control. “We want to bring back the lifeblood of the Sietas shipyard which is a jewel in the maritime crown of Germany,” Rüdiger Fuchs and Rüdiger Wolf promised when taking office, “we believe that we will have steered our way into calmer waters by 2011.” CONTRACTS FOR SPECIAL-PURPOSE SHIPS Sietas’ new management quickly came on a good course for fulfilling this ambitious goal. The main focus was set on the acquisition of new contracts for specialpurpose ships requiring particular technical expertise and innovativeness, such as RoRo-vessels and ferries, offshore vessels, heavylift-vessels or dredgers. Already in April 2009, Sietas obtained the important contract for the M/V “Uthlande”. Another order from the ferry segment followed a few months later: seatec 2/2010 41
Page 42
Photo: Sietas Group A milestone for Sietas: Last year the shipyard obtained contracts for two suction dredgers to be built for Hamburg-based Josef Möbius Bau-AG. In December 2009 AG Reederei NordenFrisia, which operates services to the German North Sea islands of Norderney and Juist, contracted a 68 metre long commuter cargo ferry dedicated exclusively to the transportation of rolling cargo. This ship, which will be fitted with special anchor piles for and aft, is due to be delivered in summer 2010. Another important contract was obtained in July last year when SAL – Schifffahrtskontor Altes Land GmbH & Co. KG ordered the two largest heavy lift ships in the world from Sietas at a total contract value of 120 million euros. The two vessels – which will boast a lifting capacity of 2,000 tons and sail at a speed of up to 20 knots – are due for delivery in December 2010 and March 2011, respectively. In September 2009, Sietas obtained yet another order: It teamed up with the German-Dutch company VOSTA LMG, one of the world’s leading dredger technology companies, to construct two suction dredgers for Hamburg-based Josef Möbius Bau-AG. The two diesel-electric dredgers – which are due for delivery this summer and in January 2012 respectively – will have different sizes, although their bow and stern sections are going to be identical. One dredger will boast a hopper volume of 7,350 cubic metres, the other one for 5,550 cubic metres. In both cases, the 42 seatec 2/2010 draught will amount to 6.80 metres, and both dredgers are going to be equipped with a suction tube of one meter in diameter which can reach depths of up to 30 metres. The total order volume for both dredgers amounts to 90 million euros. PROMISING PERSPECTIVES The orders from W.D.R., AG Reederei Norden-Frisia, SAL and Josef Möbius Bau-AG “Uthlande” – attractive and efficient T he 75.88 metres long commuter ferry M/V “Uthlande” has launched a new era on the Dagebüll-Wyk-Wittdün ferry service linking the North Sea islands of Föhr and Amrum to mainland Germany. Boasting capacity for up to 1,200 passengers and 75 private cars or cargo on 270 lane metres, she successfully unites passenger comfort and efficiency. Thanks to its four Voith-Schneider propellers the ship features excellent manoeuvring capabilities while the very low design draft of just 1.75 metres contributes to maximum operational reliability even in case of low tide. “Uthlande” sails at a speed of twelve knots, and due to her double-end design she does not have to turn in port, which contributes to a reduction of fuel consumption and emissions. The ferry’s passenger facilities are outstanding with an extremely bright and friendly salon deck located above the cardeck and a spacious sundeck situated on top. “Uthlande” also cares for disabled passengers who can easily reach the salon area and the sundeck by means of a spacious lift. ? have come at a decisive time for Sietas and helped to expand its product range. Currently the yard works very hard to obtain additional orders, not the least from international clients. Already last year Sietas appointed the experienced ship broker company Peter Döhle Schiffahrts-KG to handle its international marketing on an exclusive basis. The objective of this move was to promote the yard – which has so far been known principally in Germany – on a worldwide stage. Sietas’ international positioning is apparently about to bear fruit: e.g. ferry segment international operators are said to have shown great interest in the yard’s products, and industry sources claim that Sietas might obtain new contracts for commuter ferries in the near future. The successful inauguration of M/V “Uthlande” – which commenced operation on the Dagebüll-Föhr-Amrum service in mid-June – could obviously help this case. ? FREDERIK ERDMANN

Turku Repair Yard Ltd Handles a Wide Range of Ship Overhauls Turku Repair Yard Ltd continues the long tradition of Finnish ship repairs. It is one of the leading ship repair yards in Northern Europe. T he main repair dock of Turku Repair Yard is situated in Naantali. “Most of our projects fall within the category of rapid-pace annual repairs,” says Mr. Hans Sundqvist, Managing Director for Turku Repair Yard Ltd. “However, we are also involved in long-term repair and installation work. At the moment, we are fitting the Finnish ice-breaker ‘Kontio’ with new oil-spill recovery equipment.” The ice-breaker has been docked at Turku Repair Yard at Naantali since April 2010. The conversion to oil destruction activities – scheduled to be ready by late June – is being financed by EMSA (European Maritime Safety Agency). Another specialised ship currently undergoing work at Turku Repair Yard is the 150-metre Russian research ship ‘Akademik Fedorov’. The vessel, often utilised for Antarctic research, was originally built by Rauma-Repola shipyard in Finland. “The research ship is due for a large-scale overhaul. For instance, new sonar equipment is being fitted underneath the ship’s keel. The service work will be ready by July 2010,” Sundqvist notes. According to Mr. Sundqvist, approximately 70 percent of Turku Repair Yard’s projects are related to ships built in Finland. “Annually, Turku Repair Yard works on the ships for 300,000 man hours. Our own personnel handles 100,000 hours of the total, while the rest is taken care of by the subcontractors.” “More than two thirds of our subcontractors are Finnish companies. We have one-year contracts with several local companies in the Naantali region,” Sundqvist points out. ?

New Highly Efficient t Azimuth Propulsor for or Cruise Ships E mphasis on fuel economy and green values has increased the interest in enhanced propulsion efficiency. For ship owners a matter of great importance is reliability and trouble-free operation. To meet these demands Steerprop has introduced a new type of geared azimuth propulsor – Cruise CRP – targeted for ships with high speed and high power, such as cruise liners and cruise ferries. Steerprop Cruise CRP features the benefits of Contra-Rotating Propellers: Recovery of rotational losses, high propeller efficiency because of low blade loading, reduced frictional losses due to small blade area and low propeller RPM. In addition, it has the advantages of a pulling propeller: Macro-module cabin structures – an innovation for ship-builders Established in 1984, Shippax Ltd is an independent Finnish interior and accommodation building company. The company now manufactures Fixcel steel sandwich structures for many applications. U p to now, Shippax’s Fixcel structure has been used in the construction of various land-based applications and floating villas. However, Shippax Ltd expects that the innovation may yet have huge potential in the shipping industry. For instance, cruise liners and passenger ferries could be built of fully outfitted, ready-made macro modules of up to eight cabins. Such accommodation blocks could be attached onto the ship’s hull to form a part of the vessel’s structure. “The R&D work for the new structure was started approximately five years ago. Fixcel was invented by Mr. Tapio Kor de lin, Shippax’s Managing Director who is known 44 seatec 2/2010 Homogeneous inflow providing non-cavitating operation and reducing pressure pulses, high efficiency of a propeller always operating close to its design condition, diti as well ll as additional dditi l gains i from f propeller-pod interaction. Steerprop Cruise CRP is pressure-lubricated providing high mechanical efficiency, about 98%. for his innovations,” says Seija Hir vo nen, Development Manager for Shippax Ltd. “By now, Shippax – along with Tapio Kordelin and Chairman of the Board Pertti Lahtivuori – owns numerous patents around the world.” Fixcel structure has standardised connections for cables and tubings. “A module of, say, eight interconnecting cabins can be built within a very short time once the final blueprints have been made. As the structure is rigid and lightweight, it can be utilised to construct quite sizeable cabin modules and accommodation towers.” SELF-SUPPORTING STRUCTURE FOR SHIPS Sales Director Jukka Laiterä from Shippax Ltd points out that ready-made macro modules are a definite advantage in shipbuilding. High power capacity because of large area of propeller disk(s) and good efficiency even with reduced propeller diameter together with low mechanical losses makes Steerprop Cruise CRP a viable solution also for ice-classed applications. “The old method for constructing ships with modular cabins requires the cabins to be hoisted to position without floor structures and cabin windows. This means that the modules cannot be completed at the factory. They still need extra work at the shipyard.” “When steel sandwich systems are utilised, modular cabin structures can even be stacked so that they form self-supporting structures. They do not need to be surrounded by a separate steel structure,” Laiterä explains. “Fixcel sandwich structure is made of hot-galvanised steel profiles using triple seam rolling technology. No welding is needed.” According to Laiterä, the new structure is fire and corrosion resistant and has good thermal insulation. At present, Shippax is negotiating with STX Europe and other companies for several macro-module projects. Steel sandwich structures are being manufactured in Uusikaupunki in Finland. ? MERJA KIHL The enhanced maneuvering with fully azimuthing units shortens the turnaround times and helps to access ports even in bad weather.

Ship Interiors Often Require Careful Planning and Design F ounded in 1981, S.A.Svendsen Oy has become an experienced specialist supplier of interior outfitting materials for the shipbuilding industry in Finland for close to 30 years. The company also provides custom-made ship interior modules and furnishings. WatMan SWRO eawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) rejects typically 98.5–99.5% S of the salinity in one pass. In large-scale production, energy consumption creates a noticeable expense. In conventional SWRO systems, typical energy consumption varies from 6 to 10 kWh/m 3 -fresh water, depending on salinity, temperature and recovery rate among others. In stateof-the-art systems with energy recovery the energy consumption can be as low as 2...4 kWh/m 3 -fresh water. On the other hand, 1-pass SWRO can produce fresh water with 100–150 mg/l of chloride at its best. These high rejection systems always need an average feed pressure of 55–70 bars. So called 2-pass SWRO can remove even up to 99.9 % of the total salinity, meaning 20–50 mg/l of chloride. These extremely high rejections are sometimes needed to spare the metal piping from corrosion. “We supply ship interiors for new ships as well as for vessels hauled to repair yards for two to three weeks for annual docking,” explains Mr. Kimmo Räisänen, Managing Director for S.A. Svendsen Oy. “It is not uncommon that design work for ship interiors is started as early as 1.5 years prior to installation.” Occasionally, interior furnishings are also provided to ships at sea. According to Räisänen, S.A. Svendsen Oy recently supplied new interiors for such well-known passenger ferries as Silja Serenade, Silja Symphony, and Birka Paradise at Turku Repair Yard. Interior design trends for ships largely depend on who the shipowner appoints as architect. Of course, designers tend to choose furnishings and colour schemes that are currently fashionable within the industry. “These days, many shipowners are investing in the design of ships’ restaurants,” Räisänen recounts. ? MERJA KIHL ARI MONONEN WatMan SWRO Systems can help you to produce extremely low-salinity fresh water with very low energy consumption. This means less energy, less maintenance, less down-time, less costs and more customer satisfaction. Less is sometimes more. ?

The vessel must meet stability and strength requirements at all times. Today, e.g. large passenger vessels already operate within a very narrow margin as regards these limits, making it very difficult to achieve the most efficient loading condition. NAPA OptiFloat enables more efficient and safe planning of the loading condition because it takes the vessel’s operational limits (stability and strength) into account. In fully loaded conditions, considerable savings can be achieved realistically and easily by using OptiFloat to re-plan the loading condition. In the case of interim or light conditions, the savings potential increases dramatically. It is very common to believe that a certain trim requires less power and therefore saves fuel. This, however, is based mostly on feelings and rather than facts. Sometimes it is more economical to reduce the displacement instead of adjusting the trim, which often requires taking on more ballast water. When a vessel sails with a full load, close to its maximum draft, there is little flexibility for changes in trim, etc. This is the case especially with regard to operational limits; in addition, the safe loading conditions are limited. The stability and strength limits do not necessarily allow the most efficient floating position. If these limitations are not considered, the ship may suffer from structural damages or it may not have an adequate stability margin when it sails. NAPA OptiFloat takes these limitations into account and recommends the best possible solution for the most efficient and safe condition. In fully loaded conditions, e.g. for modern passenger vessels, the trim is normally flexible, allowing changes that enable potential savings of 250–500 USD/day, while the interim or light loading condition allows changes making it possible to save 1,200–1,600 USD/day. ?
