Enterprise was launched at NNS in 1960, and was the first nuclear- powered aircraft carrier to join the U.S. Navy's fleet. The company re- delivered Enterprise to the Navy in 1994, after a major, four-year over- haul. Harland & Wolff Completes Suezmax Tanker Repair manufactured what the company touts as one of the largest and heaviest anti-friction bearings ever made for Sofec Inc. Weighing 46 tons with a diameter of 34 ft. (10.3 m), the bearing is intended for converter tanker Vidal de NegreireS, which is stationed in the Albacora oil field off the coast of Brazil, and operated by Petrobras SA. A Floating Production Storage Offshore ves- sel (FPSO), Vidal de Negreiros doubles as an oil extracting opera- tion and an intermediate store from which raw oil is transferred to tankers. The advantage of this process is that oil-extraction can continue uninterrupted. Pictured is the Hoesche Rothe Erde anti-friction bearing, to be installed on tanker Vidal de Negreiros. 3470 Martinsburg Pike, P.O.

In addition, according to Yard Manager Jim Eccles, tSe yard is actively seek- ing further work on the conversion of FPSOs, and is taking the oppor- tunity to re-enter the cruise and passenger ship repair market. Tire recent conversion of FPSO Glas Dowr was also carried out by Harland & Wolff with the assis- tance bf the company's Repair divi- sion. The project included major engineering work and the com- plete fabrication and installation ofahelideck. "It is a well-known fact that there will be a growing demand for these large floating production and storage vessels to serve the mar- ginal oil fields which cannot justify the huge expense of fixed or semi- submersible platforms," said Mr. Eccles. "We are already a provider of services to the offshore industry, and'" the yard's position makes it i<$sal for repairing the larger vesssels servicing the deep- water terminals of Port Talbot, Milford HaA ren and Sullom Voe." \ Hoesche Rothe Erde Manufactures Giant Bearing For Brazilian Tanker Hoesch Rothe Erde GmbH has April, 19*17 Large or small, floating or fixed, Seaward SEA GUARD fenders cover you from the tropics to the arctic.
