EXPLORER |
7,800/12,000
DWT international deep sea, 17.0/15.8 knots, double skin wide
hatch multipurpose dry cargo/container vessel equipped with
Wartsila 8L46B two stroke diesel engine, 2 sets of hydraulic
ram luffing cranes and non-sequential opening weathertight
lift-away type hatch covers on weather deck and lift-away
type portable tween deck in cargo hold No. 2. Portable tween
deck can also be used as partition bulkheads in cargo hold
No. 2. |
|
| BASIS
OF THE EXPLORER DESIGN |
| The design features of the EXPLORER vessels have been developed
through research and consultations with our many internationally
prominent and successful clients. The latest trends in type,
parcel size and trade in international deep sea transportation,
the future requirement of ballast handling in restricted waters,
the latest trends in shipboard manning practices, latest regulations
governing pollution, ballast management safety and communications
have been incorporated in the EXPLORER design. Latest developments
in structural analysis, ABS SAFEHULL, finite element analysis
have also been incorporated in the design. |
