Each engine directly coupled to Brush Electrical Machines single-bearing brushless alternators; 2. Eight engines each drive an Ansaldo 1 Okv, 60Hz alternator rated at 5,600 kw, while remaining diesel engines each drive a lOkv, 60Hz alternator rated at 2,800 kw for harbor/port service. gravity, the Shoushone Spirit has an overall length of 809-1/2 feet, breadth of 139.3 feet, and design draft of 47.3 feet. Her main propul- sion engine is a slow-speed, reversi- ble turbocharged diesel Sulzer- 3.Maj 5RTA72 unit that has a maxi- mum continuous rating of 13,852 hp at 78 rpm. The engine is designed to operate on both diesel and heavy fuel up to 420 cSt at 50 degrees C (4000 Redwood at 38 degrees C). She has a service speed of 14.6 knots. The tanker is constructed in ac- cordance with the rules of Lloyd's Register of Shipping, for the class + 100A1 +LMC, UMS, IGS, OIL TANKER. Her degree of automa- tion conforms to the rules and re- quirements of the classification so- ciety for unattended machinery space. The materials used for her shell and structure are shipbuilding steel and high tensile steel. Electrical power is provided by three diesel generators of about 1,050 kva each. The diesel generator engines are four-stroke, turbo- charged, water-cooled models, di- rectly coupled to the generators, and can be operated on diesel, as well as mixed heavy fuel up to 420 cSt at 50 degrees C (4000 Redwood at 38 degrees C). One emergency diesel generator rated at 200 kva at 1,800 rpm has also been installed. The Shoushone Spirit is fitted with two 15-ton-capacity hydraulic slewing cranes, intended for han- dling manifold connection hoses for loading/discharging oil cargo. The ship's 16 cargo tanks have a total capacity of 123,000 cubic me- ters with additional capacity of 2,500 cubic meters in her slop tanks. Each of the four segregations is equipped with a separate steam tur- bine driven centrifugal cargo pump employing dry saturated steam at 16 bars pressure. The total cargo dis- charge capacity amounts to 8,000 cubic meter/hour at cargo density of 1.025 t/cubic meters and 1 cSt vsi- cosity at 50 degrees C. The cargo pumps net positive suction height amounts to 120 meters. Cargo heat- ing is provided by steam cargo heat- ers using the steam pressure of 8 bars, and providing the cargo tem- perature of 66 degrees C, even when surrounding air temperature drops to 2 degrees C, and at sea tempera- ture is 5 degrees C. TORM MARGRETHE Burmeister & Wain This year, Burmeister & Wain Skibsvaerft A/S, Copenhagen, Den- mark, delivered the 750-foot prod- uct tanker Torm Margrethe to the Danish shipping company Torm, under a contract from K/S Margre- theholm, a partnership of Danish tax investors. The single-screw tanker was the eighth in a series of Panamax prod- uct tankers, type CPT54E, built by Burmeister & Wain. She has a beam of 106 feet and draft of 38 feet, and is powered by a single five-cylinder two-stroke MAN B&W Diesel L70MCE main engine, which devel- ops 10,900 bhp at 84 rpm. She is fit- ted with a four-bladed propeller with a diameter of 23.6 feet. She has an average speed of 15.1 knots at a loaded design draft/ballasted condi- tion of 90 percent. In her engine room, the Torm Margrethe has four auxiliary en- gines—two six-cylinder MAN B&W T23LH-4E diesel engines each di- rect coupled to a 600-kw generator and two eight-cylinder MAN B&W L28/32 diesel engines each coupled to a hydraulic pump of 1,680 kw. One is also coupled to a 1,200-kw generator. The bridge is equipped with the modern navigation equipment such as a direction finder, radar, satellite communication system, satellite TORM MARGRETHE Equipment List Main engine MAN B&W Diesel Auxiliary engines . . .
