Characteristics
|
This ship has 7 cargo holds with an side rolling type hatch cover for each.
The hatch opening size is designed to be as large as possible (No.1 hatch: 14.24m (L) X 13.80m (W), No.2 to No.7 hatches: 17.80m (L) X 15.40m (W)) to improve load efficiency.
Grain crops, caustic lime, and iron ore can all be loaded on this ship. High density material such as iron ore can be loaded into alternating cargo hold, such as No. 1, No.3, No.5, and No.7.
Additionally, the ship’s rudder is equipped with a surf valve for energy savings.
A low speed, long stroke diesel engine, the MAN B&W 6S60MC is used as the main engine. |
