The work on the 37,000-dead- weight-ton, diesel-powered vessel will include the upgrading of its cargo system and stripping pumps and valves. The engine and fuel system also will be improved to al- low use of heavy fuel oil and to make changes that conform to the Port and Tanker Safety Act. The vessel operates in the for- eign trade of the United States. If approved, the Title XI guar- antee would cover $3,112,000, or 75 percent of the estimated actual cost of $4,150,000. Hydranautics Shiplift Commissioned At Hyundai A shiplift system designed and constructed by Hydranautics Hy- draulic Systems, Goleta, Calif., was recently commissioned at the Hyundai Heavy Industries Mari- time Engineering Department's facility at Ulsan, Korea. The system's platform is approx- imately 66 by 400 feet and has a capacity of 4,100 metric tons. Its maximum load density is 43 met- ric tons per meter. Hydranautics has provided a multi-speed system which will permit faster platform movement when under lower load conditions, and have incorporated field-proven chain jacks for lifting and lowering the platform, accord- ing to John Johnson, director, shipyard systems, Hydranautics. The new shiplift was designed to operate in conjunction with the ex- isting Hydranautics ship transfer system already installed at the Hyundai yard. Capabilities now exist for ship movement in any di- rection at yard level and for both side-loading or end-loading on and off the platform.
