history in shipbuilding the CN Vittoria has worked in all materials from wood to steel and, for the Blue Daddy, aluminum. With the characteristic raked bow of most boats in this class, the hull has a nine-meter beam and a five-meter molded depth. Powered by four Cummins KTA50-M2 engines, the fast supply ves- sel can make 29 knots and cruises at 24 knots. The main engines each provide 1800 BHP at 1900 rpm. Capacities in-clude 116 cu. m. of water, 71 passengers and 150 tons of deck cargo. The open after deck has a clear area 25 x 7.2 m.Auxiliary power is provided by three Cummins 6BT5.9DM powered gen sets and one Cummins 4BT3.9 emergency gen set. Sea Italia one of Italy?s major Cummins dealers supplied all engines.The company is able to supply full power train solutions including gears, shaftingand propellers. Classed by RINA with notation for MALTA CROSS-DYNA- POS-AUT UMS, the Blue Daddy ini- tially served offshore platforms in the Adriatic. Later, the boat was deployed to West African waters.

CURRENTLY OFFERS INTEGRAL FABRICATION AND SHIP REPAIR SERVICES. MHI to Build New Generation LNG CarrierMitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI), has agreed with Osaka Gas In-ternational Transport Inc. (OGIT), a group company of Osaka Gas Co., Ltd., and Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd to build two new-generation liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers. The event will rep- resent the first construction of the "Sayaendo" Series, which is designed toimprove fuel consumption and main- tainability through various features, in- cluding enhancement of ship structureefficiency. Two LNG carriers are slated for delivery in 2014 and 2015, respec- tively. Each LNG carrier measures 288 x 48.9m with an 11.55m in draft. The 138,000 gt ship is capable of carrying upto 153,000 cu. m. of LNG using fourMoss-type tanks. The Sayaendo features a peapod-shaped continuous cover for the Moss spherical tanks, integrated with the ship's hull, in lieu of a conven- tional hemispherical cover and enables greater structural efficiency and size and weight reductions, maintaining theship's overall strength. The continuous cover over the tanks improves aerody- namics by substantially reducing windpressure, which serves as drag on ship propulsion. For its main power plant, the Sayaendo adopts MHI's "Ultra SteamTurbine Plant" (UST), a new turbine plant which achieves higher thermal ef- ficiency through effective use of thermal energy by reheating steam. Together with downsizing, weight reduction and hull line improvement, the new ship is designed to achieve a 20% reduction in fuel consumption compared to conven- tional ships.Length . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .288m Breadth . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .48.94m Draft . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .11.55m LNG storage tank . . . . . . . . . . . .Stretched Moss-type . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .independent spherical type Gross tonnage . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .138,000 tons Deadweight capacity . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .75,000 tons Launch . . . . .2014 (first vessel), 2015 (second vessel) November 2011www.marinelink.com 11MR Nov.11 # 2 (10-17):MR Template 11/4/2011 3:48 PM Page 11
