Seri
Bakti is the largest LNG carrier built with membrane type. The vessel
is produced in the Nagasaki Shipyard and Machinery Works by the
Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd, which is one of the largest and
best companies for ship-building. The cargo tank capacity of the
vessel is 152,944 cubic meters and this makes the vessel pretty
large and profitable for the ship-owner. The vessel is the largest
one built from the series of five membrane LNG carriers, ordered
from the largest shipping company of Malaysia - MISC. The agreement
as signed in 2004 and this year on water was out the first and largest
vessel - Seri Bakti. The vessel has an overall length of 289.80
meters and length between perpendiculars is 276.80 meters. Seri
Bakti has a beam of 46.50 meters, depth of 25.80 meters in the middle
and draft in the middle of 11.25 meters, while the vessel is fully
loaded. The gross tonnage of the vessel is 105,335 metric tons.... date: 30th June, 2008
The
vessel with name Mineral Nippon is one newly built and very large
bulk carrier. The ship has a deadweight of 200,000 metric tons.
The vessel is property of Southern Route Maritime, S.A. and the
ship-builder was Universal Shipbuilding Corp. The vessel Mineral
Nippon is pretty large with an overall length of 290 meters, length
between perpenduculars, breadth in the middle of 50 meters, depth
of 24.10 meters and draft in the middle 17.88 meters, while the
ship is fully loaded. The exact deadweight of the vessel Mineral
Nippon is 203,275 metric tons and the gross tonnage is 101,933 metric
tons. The cargo hold capacity of the Mineral Nippon is 217,968 cubic
meters. The main enegine of the vessel is MAN B&W 6S70MC, which
gives enough power to the ship to reach the speed of 16.25 knots.
The cruising speed of the ship is 15.73 knots... date: 30th June, 2008
The ore carrier NSS Honesty was built in the year 2007 from the
ship-builder Mitsui Engineering & Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. The
vessel has an overall length of 327 meters and length between perpediculars
of 313 meters. So many people may wonder what I mean by length between
perpediculars and why it is used. In dependence of the ships construction,
bow form and design of the buld, every ship has a diferent angle
of attack of the bow to the water. So this means that overall length
of some ships can be same, but the cargo space to be different.
That is the main reason to be used fore perpendicular and aft perpendicular.
They are calculating the length of the vessel, cargo space, ship's
stability and many important components from the ships science.
The breadth of the ship NSS Honesty is 52 meters in the middle,
which is the largest breadth of the vessel... date: 30th June, 2008
Phoenix
Leader is the newly built car carrier with capacity for 6,501 units.
The vessel was built into the ship-yard of Imabari Shipbuilding
Co. Ltd at the beginning of the year. The Phoenix Leader can carry
also buses, trucks and recreational vehicles, but then the capacity
decreases to 5,400 units. Phoenix Leader is property of Onjin Shipholding
S.A. The vessel has 3 sister-ships, built into the same ship-yard,
but I think that this vessel is shining with many stars in the sky
of Car Carriers.
Phoenix Leader has a length of 199.94 meters, a beam of 32.2 meters
and a draught of 34.80 meters. These measurements are forming one
very large car carrier with gross tonnage of 61,804 metric tons.
The cargo space is 55,484 cubic meters, and this is the exact space
for 6,501 cars... date: 23rd June, 2008
Ahrenkiel
is company with history in ship operating, and that is the main
reason to present to you one more ship of this ship-owner. This
time we will introduce to you the chemical tanker Bow Ophelia. The
vessel was built in the year 2006 in the Usuki Shipyard Co. Ltd.
in Japan. The vessel is part of the series of 3 sister-ships built
in 2 years into the ship-yard. The contract with the ship-yard was
very profitable for the company and that is why, they decided to
reniew the fleet with newer and better chemical tankers from new
generation. The first three ships were Bow Ophelia, Bow Orania and
Bow Octavia. These two vessels are some of the most interesting
innovative and modern vessel sailing in the oceans of the world....... date: 23rd June, 2008
