32 Maritime Reporter & Engineering News Deutz Bridges Gap in Engine Program With the addition of the compact engines of the 1013 series to its marine engine range, Deutz bridged the gap between the lower power class, covered by small water and air-cooled engines, and the upper power class. The four and six-cylinder 1013 series engines span the power range between 70 and 195 kW with speeds between 1,500 and 2,300 rpm. They are suited both as marine propulsion units for work boats, fishing craft and pleasure boats as well as onboard gensets. The engines have a bore of 108 mm and a stroke of 130 mm, corresponding to a displacement of 4.76 respectively 7.15 liters. All engines are equipped with an exhaust turbocharger and supplied with charge air cooling, depending on the individual power requirement. Exhaust manifold, tur- bocharger and charge air cooler are water-cooled. Efficient fuel consump- tion is ensured by a high-pressure injec- tion system with unit injection pumps (PLD). On request, the engines can be equipped with double-walled injection lines. For cooling purposes there are available the following alternatives: either dual-circuit cooling with mounted plate-type heat exchanger, cooling water pump, raw water pump, expansion tank and the required thermostats or keel cooling with cooling water pump and integrated thermostats. Wet cylinder lin- ers ensure a long engine life. All service points are easily accessible on one engine side. Circle 2 on Reader Service Card Broström Tanker Propelled by Rolls-Royce Bro Deliverer from Jinling shipyard in China is the first of a series of four inno- vative combined product/chemical tankers which will be propelled, maneu- vered and moored using Rolls-Royce equipment. The D-class Broström ves- sels are designed to meet the present and future requirements of the oil and chem- ical industry, both in terms of the vol- umes and types of cargo to be carried, and in providing safe, low environmen- tal impact and economical transport. Rolls-Royce will supply each vessel with two Ulstein Aquamaster Azipull thrusters rated at 2,380 kW each for main propulsion. The AZP120 units with pulling propellers are the first Azipull thrusters to go into service in tanker propulsion. They provide propul- sion and steering, and are supplemented by a Kamewa Ulstein TT1850 tunnel bow thruster of 1,000kW. Loaded serv- ice speed is about 13 knots. By using two azimuth thrusters for propulsion, each with its own medium speed main engine, independent steering and sepa- rate fuel systems for each engine, a high level of propulsion redundancy has been achieved, and Bro Deliverer has RP class notation from DNV and Clean Design class. Broström's D-class tankers have a deadweight of about 14,500 dwt on a draft of 26.2 ft. (8 m), an overall length of 481.6 ft. (146.8 m), a beam of 72.2 ft. (22 m) and 14 tanks with a capacity of 18,556 cu. m.
