Third Fugro Vessel Joins Search for MH370
Fugro will be providing an additional vessel in the search for missing flight MH370 in the southern Indian Ocean.
The vessel, the 93-meter Havila Harmony, is under long-term charger to Fugro and will head for the search area to re-deploy
an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). The AUV, known as the Echo Surveyor VII, was deployed earlier this year in
the search for the missing airplane but was withdrawn due to sea conditions.

The state-of-the-art AUV will again be used to scan the deepest and more difficult portions of the search area that cannot
be searched as effectively by the deep tow systems on the other search vessels. The deepwater system is a Hugin 1000,
specifically designed for high resolution and efficient survey operations in water depths to 4,500 meters.
With a 75 kHz side scan sonar and a dual-head Kongsberg 2040 multibeam echosounder, its configuration is the same as
the systems deployed from the other vessels in the search, the Fugro Discovery and Fugro Equator. The AUV is also equipped with an underwater camera.
After calibration trials off the coast of Fremantle, Havila Harmony and its international crew of 40 will head to the search
area to begin search operations on December 3rd.
The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft disappeared from air traffic control radar on March 8, 2014 after taking off from Kuala Lumpur,
Malaysia on a scheduled passenger service to Beijing, China with 227 passengers and 12 crew on board.
The search for the missing aircraft is being led by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) on behalf of Australia.
So far, the search has covered more than 70,000 square kilometers of seafloor, according to the ATSB.

Mega-accommodation module en route to South Korea
A 3,200 tonne, eight-storey accommodation module was loaded onto the heavy-transport vessel Swan of Dockwise,
at the Mammoet Heavy Lift Terminal in Port Schiedam, Netherlands. This special module was designed and built by
CKT Projects in Rotterdam for the Norwegian Aasta Hansteen gas and condensate production platform on behalf on Statoil.
Image by: portofrotterdam
According to insiders, the Dutch offshore industry has delivered a tour de force with the design and construction of this 60 metre long,
25 metre wide and 38 metre high accommodation module, offering living space for 108 people.
Besides cabins for offshore workers, the module also contains a large restaurant with kitchen,
a sickbay, lifts, meeting rooms, offices, a control room and a fitness, sauna and recreation centre.
A mini control tower is included with the large aluminium helicopter platform on top. Furthermore, the module includes three large free-fall lifeboats.
The module was designed and built according to the very strict Norwegian NORSOK requirements for use in Polar Regions, applied by the client Statoil.
Very few companies worldwide can design and build complex systems to these standards. CKT Projects worked on the design,
procurement of all necessary parts and the construction for two years, providing work for several hundred workers.
Construction and load out operations took place at Mammoet in Schiedam.

Canada's Algoma orders two more Equinox-class ships
China's Jiangsu Yangzijiang Shipbuilding has secured a contract to build two 740ft-long Seaway Max self-unloading
bulk freighters from Canadian shipowner Algoma Central Corporation.
The two Equinox-class ships will join the company's Great Lakes - St Lawrence Waterway dry-bulk fleet upon
its scheduled delivery in the first half of 2018.
The Seaway Max size ships will have the capacity to carry 29,300t at maximum Seaway draft.
The ships will feature all of the Equinox-class specificities, including the exhaust gas scrubber technology.
Five Equinox-class vessels are already under construction as part of Algoma's plans to invest around $450m for its fleet renewal programme.
The fleet renewal programme is aimed at the retirement of certain older vessels.
Algoma president and CEO Ken Bloch Soerensen said: "Our search for a shipyard in China to replace the now-bankrupt Nantong Mingde Heavy Industries ("Mingde") led us to Yangzijiang.
We have been pleased with the professionalism and enthusiasm the yard has shown for our project and the quality that they have shown on work done for other ship owners."
The ships are equipped with a modern tier-two compliant engine for optimised fuel efficiency.
The company has added three Equinox-class bulk carriers and two coastal class self-unloaders to the domestic dry-bulk fleet during the last six years.
When the seven new vessels enter the service, the average life of the company's dry-bulk fleet will be reduced by 13 years, from the current 31 of the current fleet, stated the company.

Damen Delivers Crane Barge And Anti-Pollution Barge to Binco
Damen Shipyards Sharjah delivered two barges, a Crane Barge 4920 and an Anti-Pollution Barge 2405, to BINCO,
a leading contractor in the Middle East with over 30 years of experience and active in various sectors such as Marine,
Pipeline and Oil Tanks, Light and Heavy Vehicle Contracting and Industrial Services.
Image: Damen
This contract marks another milestone in the established relationship between BINCO and Damen and aims to strengthen
services towards Saudi Arabian Chevron, Khafji Joint Operations and other business partners. Having previously acquired
two Damen Stan Tugs 1605 and one Damen Stan Tug 3509,
BINCO’s choice to return to Damen was a combination of the wide range of products on offer as well
as Damen’s capacity as a complete package supplier in the region.
Pontoon Possibilities - scope of work
The Crane Barge 4920 is a heavily constructed, modern, non-propelled barge, custom built for BINCO with a four-point mooring system,
a deck crane and free working deck space. Damen barges have a high deck load capacity and are suitable for a wide range of working environments.
They can be completely custom-built and designed to accommodate to their purpose and usage.
The barge will be used for maintenance and repair jobs in the oil and gas industry, mainly for floating pipelines.
In addition, the barge will be providing modern crew accommodation and facilities.
While the crane barge is designed to clean and repair pipelines, the simultaneously purchased anti-pollution barge,
will be utilised to contain excess oil pouring out of the pipeline. Both vessels will be deployed for SPM operations
and maintenance work; on inland waters, in harbours, deep sea and estuaries. The crane barge will be the biggest vessel in BINCO’s fleet to date.
Image: Damen
Strategically Located
Another advantage for BINCO was the location of Damen Shipyards Sharjah (DSSh) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE),
in the Sharjah Hamriyah Free zone. DSSh is ideally positioned for easy access to all seven Emirates as well as providing
connections to nearby Gulf States closer to the Straits of Hormuz having a substantial impact with regards to transportation costs.
Located on a 284,000-m² site, the yard is equipped with a 5,200tonne ship lift with a platform dimension of 120m x 26.5m,
together with eight dry berths, a fully enclosed blasting and painting facility. The newly built construction sheds total 4,500 m² and
additional workshops covering 7,500 m² for the various trades active on the site. This state of the art shipyard is ideal for
providing services in the Middle East and beyond.

New Methanol Projects to Change Chemical Shipping Patterns
New US and Middle East methanol production capacity being added over the next two years will have serious
implications for chemical shipping trade flow patterns, according to the latest edition of the Chemical Forecaster,
published by global shipping consultancy Drewry.
Methanol is one of the top 5 seaborne chemical commodities accounting for 35% of the world seaborne chemical
and vegoil trade in 2014. Despite being the largest producer, by both capacity and output,
China remains a net importer and will continue to drive demand for methanol exports out of North America and the Middle East.
Image: plataformaurbana
The build-up of petrochemical capacity in the first wave of US projects, estimated at about 12 million tonnes per year,
presents a long-term competitive challenge for Europe and the Middle East’s petrochemical industry. Prior to 2015,
the US imported approximately 5 million tonnes of methanol per year, mainly from Trinidad and Tobago and Venezuela.
Given these new capacity additions the US will become a net exporter of methanol in 2016.
In the Middle East, Iran is the only country to have new projects and expansions in the pipeline. If sanctions are lifted in 2016,
Iran will increase its methanol production by 20 million tonnes between 2020 and 2025,
with most of the incremental flows moving to Asian markets. The Middle East has absolute advantage in methanol production,
but no new capacity will be added until Iran’s new projects start up.
“The large volume of methanol supply will find new markets across the globe over the next five years.
The addition America’s new production capacity has weighed heavily on methanol prices,
leading to a significant fall in both spot and contract prices in 2015,” said Drewry’s Lead Analyst for Chemical Shipping Hu Qing.
By 2020, North and South America will export more than 9 million tonnes of methanol to Northeast Asia, mainly China.
Once North America starts exporting methanol to Asia, tankers with specialised coatings such as zinc or marineline,
interline and stainless steel will benefit. On the Transpacific trade lane,
MRs with zinc-coated tankers are competitive as the ship price and freight rates are lower,
but with less flexibility compared to large stainless steel tankers.
“The average size of a methanol ship is expected to increase considering the long-haul distance between the
major sources of supply and demand. Shipping cost will remain an integral part of the overall product price.
The Middle East and US will be key sources of supply for the product, with China and India being the ultimate destinations,” added Qing.

Re: Aktueel Scheepvaart Nieuws
Hieronder wat meer informatie, de spoorbrug schijnt total loss te zijn.
De Friesenbrücke over de Eems bij Weener is gisteravond na een aanvaring door de Emsmoon zwaar beschadigd.
Treinen kunnen de brug niet meer passeren, de Eems is bij Weener voor het scheepvaartverkeer gestremd.
Het zal nog een hele tijd duren voordat er weer treinen over de brug kunnen, de rails zijn volledig vernield, de brug moet compleet vernieuwd worden.
Volgens de Wasserschutzpolizei was de Emsmoon rond 18.00u uit Papenburg richting Noordzee vertrokken en ramde om ca. 18.40u de gesloten spoorbrug bij Weener.
De oorzaak van het ongeluk is nog niet duidelijk, een woordvoerder van de Politie bevestigde dat er een loods aan boord was, een brugwachter voor de spoorbrug was eveneens aanwezig.
Of het schip eventueel door rood gevaren zou zijn kon evenmin bevestigd worden.
Men vermoedt dat de afspraken tussen de Kapitein en de medewerkers van de spoorbrug verkeerd gelopen zijn.
Het schip keerde met behulp van slepers naar Papenburg terug.
Daarbij kwam het volgens de "Neuen Osnabrücker Zeitung" eveneens tot problemen, de Emsmoon zat zo vast dat de sleper „Gerd Bliede“ in eerste instantie geen beweging in het schip kon krijgen.

The 38,800 dwt smart ship will be designed with the highest technical specifications, smart management and control systems.
The ordering specifications have been completed. Several modules have been applied in trial assembly and used on other ships,
with the commercial plans for building a smart demo ship having been confirmed.
The smart ship is based on big data and applies up-to-date information technology including real-time data transmission and collection,
large-capacity calculations, digital modeling and remote control. All of this is designed in to the ship to better guarantee
navigational safety and improve operational efficiency of ship.
According to Wei Muheng, an engineer working at the Intelligent Maintenance Laboratory for Platform System Research Institute
under CSSC Systems Engineering Research Institute, the 38,800 dwt smart ship project will set up a
whole-ship information perception system and realize information integration and data sharing between all the systems and equipment on the ship.
The project will also utilize intelligent management and control systems, independent analysis, assessment and predictions.
This will help with communication between the smart ship and shore as well as providing remote maintenance and upgrades of ship systems.
Designed with remote monitoring, support, management and control by using onshore resources to improve the ships operations and safety.
With the ships data analysis and optimizing ship design and shipbuilding techniques, the project can provide the shipowner with life cycle value of the ship.
Key smart functions by the smart ship include the overall performance and status monitoring; ship status safety assessment;
ship energy efficiency monitoring, analysis, assessment and optimization; engine room equipment and system operation,
status and monitoring; engine room equipment operation, safety and performance analysis; engine room equipment
maintenance including prediction and reliability, status assessment and maintenance optimization; sea route; ship navigation;
navigational operation and control information analysis; environmental impact analysis; navigational optimization.
The companies involved plan to start construction September 2016 and deliver in 2017.
The entire ship will be run on smart systems, optimizing everything while maintaining safe operations.
Today, China’s smart ship development aided by good policy and a highly technical environment.
In May of this year, the State Council announced the “Made in China 2025” policy,
encouraging a comprehensive implantation and manufacturing in China. As a high-tech ship,
the smart ship is highlighted for priority development in Made in China 2025. In August,
China published the Action Program for Promoting Big Data Development and vigorously developing big data has ascended as a national strategy.
China has accelerated smart ship research in recent years. Under the guidance of CSSC,
CSSC Systems Engineering Research Institute launched the “Intelligent Information Management and Practical Technology Innovation Center for Marine Equipment”
with NSF IMS in 2013, with the aim of boosting relevant core technology and product R&D.
In September 2015, CSSC Systems Engineering Research Institute and China Merchants Energy Transport Co., Ltd.
signed the strategic cooperation agreement on “Ship and Shipping Intelligence,” to drive industry and network integration,
carry out intelligent technology applications in new-buildings and explore shipping information in new ways.
The implementation of the 38,800 dwt smart ship project will push China’s smart ship R&D forward.

The project is aimed at the shipbuilding of smart demo ship based on “Green Dolphin” a 38,800 dwt bulk carrier.
The 38,800 dwt smart ship will be designed with the highest technical specifications, smart management and control systems.
The ordering specifications have been completed. Several modules have been applied in trial assembly and used on other ships,
with the commercial plans for building a smart demo ship having been confirmed.
The smart ship is based on big data and applies up-to-date information technology including real-time data transmission and collection,
large-capacity calculations, digital modeling and remote control. All of this is designed in to the ship to better guarantee
navigational safety and improve operational efficiency of ship.
According to Wei Muheng, an engineer working at the Intelligent Maintenance Laboratory for Platform System Research Institute
under CSSC Systems Engineering Research Institute, the 38,800 dwt smart ship project will set up a
whole-ship information perception system and realize information integration and data sharing between all the systems and equipment on the ship.
The project will also utilize intelligent management and control systems, independent analysis, assessment and predictions.
This will help with communication between the smart ship and shore as well as providing remote maintenance and upgrades of ship systems.
Designed with remote monitoring, support, management and control by using onshore resources to improve the ships operations and safety.
With the ships data analysis and optimizing ship design and shipbuilding techniques, the project can provide the shipowner with life cycle value of the ship.
Key smart functions by the smart ship include the overall performance and status monitoring; ship status safety assessment;
ship energy efficiency monitoring, analysis, assessment and optimization; engine room equipment and system operation,
status and monitoring; engine room equipment operation, safety and performance analysis; engine room equipment
maintenance including prediction and reliability, status assessment and maintenance optimization; sea route; ship navigation;
navigational operation and control information analysis; environmental impact analysis; navigational optimization.
The companies involved plan to start construction September 2016 and deliver in 2017.
The entire ship will be run on smart systems, optimizing everything while maintaining safe operations.
Today, China’s smart ship development aided by good policy and a highly technical environment.
In May of this year, the State Council announced the “Made in China 2025” policy,
encouraging a comprehensive implantation and manufacturing in China. As a high-tech ship,
the smart ship is highlighted for priority development in Made in China 2025. In August,
China published the Action Program for Promoting Big Data Development and vigorously developing big data has ascended as a national strategy.
China has accelerated smart ship research in recent years. Under the guidance of CSSC,
CSSC Systems Engineering Research Institute launched the “Intelligent Information Management and Practical Technology Innovation Center for Marine Equipment”
with NSF IMS in 2013, with the aim of boosting relevant core technology and product R&D.
In September 2015, CSSC Systems Engineering Research Institute and China Merchants Energy Transport Co., Ltd.
signed the strategic cooperation agreement on “Ship and Shipping Intelligence,” to drive industry and network integration,
carry out intelligent technology applications in new-buildings and explore shipping information in new ways.
The implementation of the 38,800 dwt smart ship project will push China’s smart ship R&D forward.

Re: Aktueel Scheepvaart Nieuws
Joost, ik vind het heel knap hoe je al die foto's boven water weet te halen. Dan moet je heel wat bronnen raadplegen en zoekacties doen anders lukt dat nooit zo. Respect! En met mijn dank, dat mag best wel eens gezegd worden. Slaap je eigenlijk nog wel eens?
