The
container shipping is very important part of Maritime Transport,
and the company of Maersk is the one leader in the world of TEUs.
Now we will present to your attention of the largest container vessels
of the company Maersk Line - Adrian Maersk. The ship was built in
2004 by the famous ship-yard – Dense Steel Shipyard is Denmark,
where are built some of the largest ships of the world. And Adrian
Maersk is one of them. The container vessel has a length of 352
meters and a beam of 43 meters. The container ship has deadweight
of 109,000 metric tons, and this is giving to the ship capacity
of 9,000 TEU according to the calculation of Maersk Group. And this
is only the begging when we are talking about ships like Adrian
Maersk. The giant
is sailing under the flag of Denmark and the criterias, which is
certifying the ship are very high. The vessel has a special engine
Wartsila with full power of 80,000 kW. The engine was designed specially
for this series of vessels and gives a high power with low consumption
of fuel and consumption of luboil. The vessels built for Maersk
Company are some of the most qualited and highest productive ships
of the world. The
company is not afraid of investing money in new technologies and
this is giving high results for them. Adrian Maersk is typical example
for these words of mine. The ship is sailing on route AE-1, which
is connecting Asia Europe and Asia again. The transportation of
goods from high developing countries like India and China is very
important for well-developed Western European Countries, which is
the main market for the East Asians markets.
Adrian Maersk has all the required equipment on board and this is
making the sailing very environmental and easy. The container ship
can reach the maximum speed of 25.2 knots, and the cruising one
is 24.8 knots. This is high speed, from which the vessel is in high
need. The container vessel Adrian Maersk is one more large vessel
but that is not everything. The ship is also modern and very environmental
for the ecology system of the world. I think that if all companies
care about the earth as Maersk Line, the pollution in air and water
will decrease with many, many percents. date: 17th September, 2008
