Esso Signs Order For Three 22,500-Ton Tankers In Japan Esso Tankers, Inc., an affiliate of Standard Oil Company (New Jersey) has signed a contract with Hitachi Shipbuilding & Engineering Co. Ltd., for the construction of three 22,500-dwt tankers in Japan, it was announced recently. The tankers will be built at the Hitachi shipyard in Mukaishima for delivery in the last half of 1974, and they will be used in Esso's international tanker service. Each tanker will have a length of 449 feet, a breadth of 77 feet and a 32-foot draft. The operat- ing speed will be 15 knots with 8,600 brake horse- power. Northeast Marine Terminal Names Capt. Neitz President The appointment of Capt. Russell W. Neitz as president of Northeast Marine Terminal Co., Inc. to succeed the late Albert E. Gurge has been announced by Lester Wolfe, chair- man of the board. Captain Neitz served in an administrative capacity with the company for the past 10 years as vice-president, operating the terminal at the foot of 39th Street in Brooklyn, N.Y. Prior to joining Northeast, he had served as a master in the Isthmian Steamship Co., general superintendent at Jarka Corporation, and also as superintendent at Universal Terminal & Stevedoring Corp. MarAd Alters Reguirements To Attract More Marine Officers The Maritime Administration, deciding to make careers as merchant marine officers more attrac- tive, is offering alternatives to the long-standing requirement that graduates of the U.S. Maritime Academy serve five years aboard ship following completion of their education. MarAd henceforth will otfer graduates of Kings Point four alternatives. One would be six months of service a year for three years, or four months a year for four years. A third alternative would be three years of ac- tive duty in the uniformed services. Finally, to encourage further educational effort, 30 days service a year as an officer aboard an active naval vessel for three years would be acept- able if the Academy graduate was in the meantime employed ashore in the maritime industry or en- gaged full time in graduate level work in the mari- time field. LARGEST AT MARSEILLES: The West-German tanker Humboldt (shown above) was at Marseilles from the 14th to the 19th of November for guarantee repairs, including work on her main Stal Laval turbine gearing. The repairs were carried out by Societe Provencale des Ateliers Terrin, who are service agents for Stal Laval. The Humboldt is the largest vessel yet to call at Mar- seilles. Built by the Norwegian shipyard Aker, she began operating in early 1970. She is approximately 1,070 feet long by 150 feet wide, and has a deadweight ton- nage of 220,000. Her owners are the Schluessel Ree- derei of Bremen. •Pii u ; .. '..-I. ; u Tr ! m J. L. BLUDWOItTH NAVAL ARCHITECT!
