44 Maritime Reporter & Engineering News • DECEMBER 2014 GREAT SHIPS OF 2014 H yundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd. (HHI) has built and delivered the world’s larg- est containership, the fi rst of fi ve 19,000 TEU containerships ordered from China Shipping Container Lines (CSCL) in May 2013. The fi rst containership in the series was named CSCL Globe, and it measures 1312.3 ft. (400 m) x 192.3 ft. (58.6 m) wide with a 100 ft. (30.5 m) depth. It will be deployed on the Asia-Europe trade loop. The CSCL Globe will feature a Hyundai-B&W 12S90ME-C9.2 electrically controlled engine with MCR of 69,720 kW at 84 rpm enabling to sail at a service speed of 23 knots at design draft when run- ning at 90% MCR with 15% sea margin burning less fuel of around 195.5 tons per day. With the installation of the high effi ciency engine, the con- tainership will burn 20 percent less fuel per TEU in comparison with the 10,000 TEU container- ships. The main engine is optimized with low load tuning by exhaust by-pass system for turbocharger for improved fuel consumption at practical operation condition. A Cylinder Pressure Measuring Indicating system is provided onboard this mammoth ship for main engine, and cylinder pressure and RPM with angle reference are calculated and presented on a ship’s computer in engine control room. It is arranged two islands concept with the sepa- rated location of accommodation from engine room for crew comfort and optimum ballast tank arrange- ment to minimize ballast amount at various loading conditions. Fuel oil tanks are constructed in double hull structure to protect the fuel oil tanks from external damag- es. Twenty-seven sets of 3-tier lashing bridges are provided for easy maintenance of 900 FEU reefer containers on deck/hatch cover.
