NEWS IN BRIEF Liftal takes over Damen Hoisting Liftal Hijstechniek will take over Damen Hoisting as of 1 October. For Liftal, this acquisition represents a strategic expansion towards the Rotterdam region, and for Damen a choice to keep focusing on its core business. Liftal Hijstechniek, which has been established in Vlissingen in 1998, is an expert in the field of testing and certification of hoisting and lifting equipment for maritime applications, the offshore oil & gas industry, the wind industry, industrial markets, and the construction sector. From its establishment in Vlissingen, the company operates mainly throughout the South-West Netherlands region and also in several different European markets, while from its Belgian establishment, the company operates in Antwerp, the Gent-Terneuzen Canal Zone, and the Belgian ports along the coast. Damen Hoisting was founded five years ago as a business unit of Damen Anchor & Chain Factory. From the accommodation at the Damen Shiprepair Rotterdam site in Schiedam, the company serves customers from various markets that are complementary to those of Liftal. i. liftal.com

Staying ahead of the curve Berg Propulsion retrofit cuts CO2 emissions for Vroon’s MV Indian Express.

A recent retrofit to optimize a container ship’s propeller blade design has brought performance and fuel efficiency gains that are measurable in realworld conditions. Leading ship operator and manager Vroon recently approached Berg Propulsion to investigate the possibility of optimizing the propulsion system on its container vessel, MV Indian Express, fitted with a controllable pitch propeller originally manufactured by ZF. The aim was to secure the sustainability benefits available through greater ship efficiency, as part of Vroon’s continuing strategy to find the best practical answers to lowering CO2 emissions, ahead of the IMO’s Energy Efficiency Ship Index (EEXI) and Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII).

With performance improved at the speeds most commonly required during operations, Indian Express would achieve an astonishing 22% fuel saving overall, as well as lower emissions that should go farther than the requirements of the IMO’s carbon Intensity Initiative goals for 2026. i. bergpropulsion.com

Performance data from Vesper platform has been combined with weather forecasting to optimise voyage planning and minimise cost. Weathernews Inc (WNI) has joined forces with Vessel Performance Solutions (VPS) to integrate critical performance data from ship systems with its leading weather routing system to further optimise voyage planning.

The Vesper software platform by VPS records continuous performance data from the hull and propellers, main and auxiliary engines and boilers to determine speed, RPM and fuel consumption estimates that can be accessed seamlessly within WNI’s Optimum Ship Routing (OSR) service. “This raises the value proposition of the OSR system for ship operators as it widens significantly the range of data available to make well-informed routing decisions in support of lower costs, reduced emissions and improved safety”, said Henrik Faurschou, Global Product and Market Strategy Leader at WNI. i. vpsolutions.dk

NEWS IN BRIEF JOTUN

Vessels using Jotun Hull Performance Solutions reported a 20% lower carbon intensity.

BOOTH NO.

5100 EUROPORT 2021

Based on the latest carbon emissions MRV data published by the EU, it can be seen that cargo vessels using Jotun’s Hull Performance Solutions (HPS) reported a 20% lower carbon intensity on average in operations compared to non-HPS peers in 2019 and 2020. Crosschecked statistics also indicate lower carbon emissions than from vessels known to be sailing with some “low-friction” foul-release silicone coatings that claim to offer market-leading performance.

Only coatings applied within the three years preceding the emissions report were considered. The internal study carried out by Jotun investigated major cargo vessel types, including bulk carriers, chemical tankers and oil tankers, with a dataset of almost 9,000 vessels, and the emissions report was verified by accredited parties. The Carbon Intensity Index (CII) set to be implemented by IMO in 2023 focuses on the yearly reduction in emissions during operations. So vessel owners cannot just rely on the “out-ofdock” effect of a hull maintenance. i. jotun.com

42m patrol boat for Thailand Incat Crowther announces that construction is well underway on a 42m Patrol Vessel for operation in Thailand. The vessel is being built by Seacrest Marine and has been developed as a solution to a strict set of mission requirements for use in patrol, rescue and enforcement activities within Thai domestic waters. The vessel will be the eighth Incat Crowther vessel to be built by Seacrest Marine and will accommodate 16 crew and 6 officers below decks with a fourteen-day autonomy.

Powered by three MTU 16V2000 M86 main engines driving fixed-pitch propellers, the vessel will have a top speed of over34knots. Low draft was a key requirement, which has been addressed by the incorporation of Incat Crowther’s highly efficient propeller tunnels. The vessel is scheduled for sea trials later this year. i. incatcrowther.com

NEWS IN BRIEF New joint venture Inchcape Shipping Services has rediscovered its roots by forming a new joint venture with John Keells Holdings PLC (JKH) in Sri Lanka that is positioned to offer a full suite of services to ease voyage logistics at a strategic intersection of one of the world’s busiest shipping routes. The South Asian country is an important maritime hub in the Indian Ocean, with an estimated 31,000 vessels a year traversing the East-West trade route connecting the major industrial centres of North America, Western Europe and Asia, making it a vital link in the global supply chain serving a region that hosts around 35% of the world’s population. It is not surprising then that Inchcape’s South Asia Area General Manager Ravi Ramachandran believes, “It is long overdue that Inchcape has a presence in Sri Lanka” with the joint venture named Inchcape Mackinnon Mackenzie Shipping (Private) that was launched in July this year. i. iss-shipping.com

NEWS IN BRIEF ECOsubsea strengthens long-term partnership with AzkoNobel ECOsubsea, the sustainable robotic end-to-end biofouling solution welcomes the announcement of an innovative hull management tool “intertrac Hullcare” from leading marine coatings manufacturer AkzoNobel. A clean hull will glide through the water when a vessel is underway a lot more smoothly than one with fouling which will increase friction and therefore require more engine power to meet desired speeds. AkzoNobel has identified the need to further support the maritime industry’s carbon neural roadmap and the huge opportunity that can be achieved with sustainable and well-planned but flexible hull maintenance. The use of high-performance coatings, big data analytics and the ECOsubsea system allows owners to meet and exceed industry standards, providing customers a full sustainability solution in every step of the value chain. i. ecosubsea.com

Final preparations for Europort in full swing Europort 2021 is getting closer and closer. With only a few weeks to go, all final preparations for Europort are in full swing. Everyone involved is looking forward to the 40th anniversary edition of the Europort exhibition, where safety and successful networking will go hand in hand. Since rules and regulations in regard to physical distancing are no longer in place, Europort can take place with full capacity: visitors and exhibitors can move around freely without the 1.5m limitations. When entering Rotterdam Ahoy, the coronavirus entry pass system will apply. There has also been a relaxation of entry requirements for international travellers. For example, visitors from the US and UK are no longer required to self-quarantine on arrival. This means that there is little holding the industry back to engage and connect in person with business relations during Europort. i. europort.nl

IT IS THE 40TH EDITION OF EUROPORT, MAKING IT ONE OF THE LONGEST EXISTING MARITIME EXHIBITIONS IN THE WORLD. ALL PHOTOS COURTESY OF EUROPORT.

O

f course, Europort 2021 also looks to the future. In fact, charting the path to a sustainable maritime future is one of Europort’s primary ambitions. To initiate a deeper understanding of the transition trails that are of vital interest to the maritime ecosystem, four major themes will dominate the Europort 2021 agenda: Digitalisation, Energy Transition, Next Generation, and Ship Finance.

Extensive knowledge programme

In common with the previous 39 editions, Europort 2021 offers numerous conferences, thematic masterclasses, matchmaking and networking events, seminars, and workshops in close collaboration with its partners and industry organisations.

Exhibition Manager Raymond Siliakus says, “Once again, a very extensive knowledge programme will be implemented. We’re proud to be working with many respected partners in the sector, in order to create a relevant programme for all of our maritime segments.”

Europort Opening Summit

Maritime peers can get inspired during the official Europort Opening Summit, consisting of challenging questions on the themes Digitalisation, Energy Transition, Ship Finance, and Next Generation, and a triggering expert panel discussion.

The Innovation Stage

The Innovation Stage will focus on the four central themes of Europort 2021 for four

days. Europort exhibitors and partners will pitch their innovations live on stage. Located in the heart of the fairground, the Innovation Stage offers a free access daily programme. Each day another industry theme will be top of mind.

Smart Digital Ports

For the first time in its 40th anniversary, Europort presents the ‘Smart Digital Ports’ conference. Europort is committed to the next generation of efficient and connected ports. Global ports and the entire supply chain debate, discuss, network, and share best practices on the latest developments in automation, sustainability, and connectivity.

Charting the path to a sustainable maritime future is one of Europort’s primary ambitions.

‘Funding the European Inland Navigation’

Also new is the first Mare Forum entitled ‘Funding the European Inland Navigation’.

This event creates the chance to discuss and make a difference. With multiple keynote speakers and panellists, the following questions will be addressed: Who has a clear view of the design of the barge of the future? What insights do we have into the commercial viability of future ship designs?

Who will take the investment risk on these technologies? What is the role of the capital provider and charterer? Is LNG just a transition fuel? Hydrogen, ammonia, batteries, and nuclear? Is there enough infrastructure in ports to facilitate new fuels? Will we have new trades, requiring new ship types such as hydrogen carriers and ammonia product tankers?

Worldwide, millions of liters of drinking water are saved on board by using vacuum toilets.

Sales Manager, Cees Lam: ,,Our Evac vacuum toilets are not only very quiet; they only use 1.2 liters of water per flush, instead of the usual 4 to 6 liters. That saves millions of cubic meters of drinking water, that are not contaminated.” Qua-vac also supports it’s customers in other ways with sustainable, cost-effective business operations. It offers food and galley waste systems and dry waste systems. “Different kinds of waste, such as cardboard, plastic and glass, can easily be collected separately, processed and then stored in compressed form, with our equipment. The compressed bales can be delivered to a waste ship or in a port. After all, this solution is so much better for the environment than throwing the waste overboard.” i. quavac.com

The substances naturally contained in potable water are deposited on all surfaces that come into contact with water and develop into biofilms and incrustations. These deposits provide an ideal environment for bacteria – including pathogens such as legionella and pseudomonads – to multiply and can have a negative impact on the taste and smell of the water and on human health.

The Korinexan® (part of the Carela Group and subsidiary) cleaning and disinfection system removes all types of deposits (biofilms, iron, manganese, lime) from potable water installations and at the same time achieves 100% effective disinfection against all bacteria contained in the water. These cleaning and disinfection products have been tested and approved by various institutes of the hygiene, health and environmental authorities. Another Korinexan® disinfection and cleaning process, especially in the case of poorly executed or not cured coatings of potable water tanks, is aimed specifically at the taste and odor nuisance of the potable water caused by these deposits. i. carela-group.com

FOCUS ON THE NETHERLANDS

Owner and Founder of Fender Innovations Koos van Bijsterveld.

Sylvia Ruizendaal, Chief Operational Officer of Fender Innovations.

Most crucial properties

Fender Innovations has acquired an excellent reputation for the development and production of high-quality fender systems for all types of vessels throughout the world.

Chief Operational Officer of Fender Innovations Sylvia Ruizendaal explains, “The two most crucial properties of the company’s products – namely strength and low weight – are relevant to future markets.

Weight reduction is an extremely critical issue in electrically-propelled vessels; every kilo of weight equals more kilowatts required to propel the vessel. Our fenders contribute to significant weight savings.

Lightweight properties are very important, but the fenders also have to be incredibly strong because they undergo enormous pressures during launching and landing.”

Fine-tuning

Ms Ruizendaal continues, “The fine-tuning of a fender for a specific client’s market needs makes all the difference. All our clients have different requirements. A fender for the offshore wind market has to perform a totally different role than a fender on a superyacht tender. To optimise the selection of the most suitable fender, Fender Innovations gathers a considerable amount of information about the vessel; details about the weight, propulsion, and use of the ship, for example. This gives us an indication about the forces that the fender is expected to experience in day-to-day operations. With all this information, we engineer the fender. And, of course, aesthetics is always important. You can compare the smooth finish and design of our fenders to the shiny rims on a brand new car; it is the icing on the cake.”

range of maritime sectors. This includes everything from search-and-rescue vessels and workboats such as pilot and patrol vessels, to cruise ship tenders and crew transfer vessels for the offshore wind industry. In addition, the company offers fender installation and performs maintenance and repair work on request, through their efficient service department that operates throughout the world.

Inspection vessel PW10

In the spring of 2020, Talsma Shipyards was assigned with the task to build a new inspection vessel after a design by Vripack.

Due to electric propulsion and a large battery pack, PW10 is carbon neutral. In addition, the vessel is fitted out with ten solar panels. The vessel is fully electric and sustainable, which brings several benefits, like 18,427kg fewer CO2 emissions annually, 6,980L of annual fuel savings, 70% savings on maintenance costs, and being 85% recyclable. Fender Innovations provided an extremely lightweight fender system for PW10, with a strong damping capacity, perfect wear and tear, and bold lines over the entire hull providing a robust look. The vessel was proudly delivered at the end of August 2021.

Successful collaboration

The Fender Innovations team concludes, “We are proud of the beautiful end result of

our high-tech fenders on the sleek lines of the PW10 and the collaboration with Talsma went magnificently, thanks to the professional and accurate work ethics of Talsma Shipyards. Tjitze Stiensma, Commercial Project Manager of Talsma Shipyards, comments, “Working with Fender Innovations was a joy because they are professionals with a dimensionally stable approach, and they work with great accuracy. The range of fenders to choose from was very wide. Applying the fender system to the new sustainable paint technology was the biggest challenge during the process, and Fender Innovations successfully completed this challenge. We are mostly proud of the fact that we successfully delivered the project together within the estimated time frame and budget.” Working with Talsma Shipyards was a fruitful an joyous event for Fender Innovations and they look forward to more successful collaborations together.

Future plans

Koos van Bijsterveld, Owner and Founder of Fender Innovations, is the driving force behind Fender Innovations. His goal is to find a solution for every challenge with regard to fenders that he comes across, and coming up with new solutions even before the challenge arises. Mr van Bijsterveld shares, “To innovate is in our DNA and our number one goal is quality. We want to

produce fenders that are ahead of their time, always aiming for even lighter, more flexible, stronger, and more sustainable products, with a focus on customer needs.

In addition, our goal is to become completely circular, meaning that we aim to recycle all the products we use. We have started with these processes by converting the foam that we use to a product that can be used for subfloors for sports fields, and the wood we use is reused to make new moulds. The next step is to convert the expanded polystyrene (EPS) we use into a new material that can be used for other applications.” In addition to this, in January of 2021, Fender Innovations welcomed Roemer Boogaard as CEO of Fender Innovations. The company is happy to take on the future with Mr Boogaard. All in all, the future of Fender Innovations is looking bright, and very green. i. fenderinnovations.nl

MARINE PROPULSION SYSTEMS

M1 controller fully wired in the cabinet

Hybrid LNG ship propulsion – First in the world SEMBCORP MARINE IN SINGAPORE IS CURRENTLY BUILDING THE WORLD’S FIRST HYBRID LNG-POWERED TUG FLEET. IT WILL REPLACE THE EXISTING diesel-powered one in the coming years.

The Hybrid Control System (HCS) is provided by Invertek Drives Far East. For this purpose, the company relies on the M1 system components from Bachmann electronic.

he drive control of tugs is demanding, because this type of ship requires very variable power ranges, high manoeuvrability, and immense force: The new harbour tugs have 65 tons of bollard pull to handle the huge ships and tankers in Singapore. With the new ships, Sembcorp wants to contribute to decarbonization, and, above all, to reduce the air pollution. In the tugs, two 16-cylinder engines powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG) are supported by electric motors. “Depending on the desired operating mode and required performance profile, the electric engine can be used for propulsion (Power Take-In, PTI) or as a generator (Power Take-Off, PTO),” says Henry Beh, Managing Director of Invertek Drives Far East Pte.

The two gas engines deliver an overall output of almost 3,000kW. They do not emit any sulphur oxides and only very small amounts of nitrogen oxides. Therefore, the exhaust gas aftertreatment can be dispensed with. In contrast to the dieselpowered counterparts, the particle number is negligible.

Efficient use of resources

The hybrid system has five drive modes: In the ‘Harbour’ operating mode, propulsion is purely electric and emission-free, as the gas engine is switched off. In ‘Transit’ mode, without towing or pulling vessels, the tug is powered by the gas engines. Generated excess power is stored in the battery. When pulling ships to or from the port, the tug is

MARINE PROPULSION SYSTEMS operated in ‘Towing’ mode and is powered by the LNG engines only. Then, when high bollard pull is required, the captain can activate the ‘Boost’ mode where both gas and electric motors are used in parallel to deliver maximum power. Finally, a special feature is being implemented to use the tugs for firefighting operations: One motor is reserved to operate the firefighting pump, the other one is used to keep the ship in position. “Our control system ensures that both motor and generator are always operated in the optimal load range, to achieve maximum fuel efficiency and lowest possible carbon emissions”, emphasizes Henry Beh.

Demanding automation

In Singapore, the combination of LNG motor and electric drive is being used for the first time worldwide for tugs, and the control is complex: “The power management of the two motor types, the batteries, and the converters require completely new approache”, explains Henry Beh. High maneuverability of the ships must be guaranteed for all performance requirements, and at the same time, the least possible impact on the environment must be assured. Therefore, the Hybrid Control System is one of the most critical subsystems of a hybrid vessel.

Maximum reliability and operational safety

“It can be seen as the brain that coordinates and controls the various propulsion system components on board, such as engine, electric motor, battery and thruster”, as Henry Beh underlines. “The components must work in perfect harmony

to achieve the desired operating objectives in terms of efficiency and resource-saving.”

Together with Bachmann electronic, the Invertek engineers developed an appropriate automation solution. Controls and network in ring topology are completely redundant: The two master CPUs are operated in hot standby, automatically synchronized, and can be transferred bumpless. “Thus, the ship operator gains maximum reliability and operational safety,” emphasizes the general manager.

Challenges mastered

The frame conditions due to the corona pandemic were anything but easy. The entire project – from tender, kick off meeting, system design, and project coordination – had to be executed completely online without a single personal encounter.

Beh praises the cooperation with the Bachmann electronic engineers: “They were

available to us at any time and were also a great help to our customers.” When he opted for Bachmann electronic, he was convinced from the start by the company’s extensive experience and impressive references in the maritime industry. “It is important for us that all components are approved for such demanding applications in accordance with stringent marine and offshore standards”, adds the Invertek manager. To ensure full compliance in meeting the stringent criteria of marine classification, the design and operation procedure including FMEA was reviewed by ABS. ABS also surveyed the final factory acceptance test. Henry Beh is pleased: “Thanks to Bachmann electronic, we were able to create an excellent basis for expanding the fleet with a total of twelve tugs.” i. bachmann.info

FOCUS ON THE NETHERLANDS

To become carbon neutral by 2050, we look for new fuel technologies. We see methanol as one of the alternatives to meet the industry’s goals to reduce its environmental impact.

O

ffshore wind is a key contributor to achieving climate change targets around the world. Since its initial involvement in wind farm installation in 2002, Van Oord has become a frontrunner in this industry. In the Netherlands, Van Oord was one of the first offshore companies (first time mover) to invest in Offshore Wind. As a result, Van Oord makes a significant contribution to the transition to sustainable energy in the Netherlands. It has also been involved in projects including the Princess Amalia Wind Farm, Eneco Luchterduinen Wind Farm, Gemini, Borssele III & IV, and this will be followed in the next few years by Hollandse Kust (North). Van Oord also operates outside Europe, including as an EPCI contractor (engineering, procurement, construction and installation) for the Sofia Offshore Wind Farm being built on the Dogger Bank in the middle of the North Sea.

Maintaining the leadership position

Since 2002, Van Oord has contributed to the installation of a cumulative renewable

energy capacity of 14.5GW. This represents 40% of the total installed capacity of approximately 35GW of offshore wind worldwide at the end of 2020. Van Oord worked on and completed offshore wind projects in 2020 that provide sustainable energy to more than 2.5 million households.

The demand for offshore wind farms remains high. The European Union aims to install 300GW of offshore wind capacity by 2050, and worldwide this is expected to be 2,000GW of offshore wind energy. In the Netherlands, the goal is to realise 20GW up to 2030 and another 20GW of offshore wind energy in the next decade. Wind turbines at sea are also rapidly getting bigger. In 2007, there were wind turbines of 2MW, while nowadays turbines of 14MW are in development. The rotor blades are already well over 100m long and the transport and installation requires larger ships. Van Oord is investing in a new vessel to transport and install the next generation of 20MW wind turbines. Pieter Van Oord, CEO at Van Oord says, “This investment prepares us for the increase in scale in the offshore wind

industry and allows us to maintain our leadership position.”

Properties

Van Oord has everything it takes to make wind energy more competitive as an energy source. As an EPC contractor (Engineering, Procurement and Construction), Van Oord sees to the entire process from design to construction and completion. It also provides T&I projects (transport and installation) and other services, such as scour protection and inter array cable and export cable installation. The new 175m offshore installation vessel will be purposebuilt for the transport and installation of foundations and turbines at offshore wind farms. With a top-class crane – supplied by the Dutch company Huisman – it can lift more than 3,000t. The vessel has an advanced jacking system. Four giant legs, each measuring 126m, allow the vessel to be jacked up and work in waters up to 70m

deep. This investment is part of a EUR 1 billion fleet investment programme over the next 5 years. In December 2020, Van Oord had already ordered a new green cable-laying vessel at VARD in Norway.

Future fuel methanol

Van Oord is committed to reducing CO2 emissions and to becoming carbon-neutral by 2050, in line with the Paris Agreement.

This investment is an example of the energy transition within the company. Marine fuels are becoming cleaner and, thanks to cleaner engines, emissions are reduced. Van Oord has already ordered three LNG-fuelled trailing suction hopper dredgers, which will be completed in 2022. The new installation vessel will be able to run on the future fuel methanol. Running on methanol, reduces the ship’s CO2 footprint by more than 78%.

In addition, the vessel will be equipped with an advanced active emissions control technology (Selective Catalytic Reduction) to

reduce the NOx emission to an absolute minimum. An installed 5,000 kWh battery pack can take the peak loads and regenerate energy to reduce the fuel consumption (and corresponding emissions) even further. Jaap de Jong, Director Ship Management of Van Oord explains, “To become carbon neutral by 2050, we look for new fuel technologies.

We see methanol as one of the alternatives to meet the industry’s goals to reduce its environmental impact. Similar steps have already been made in our investment programme with the construction of three LNG-fuelled trailing suction hopper dredgers and the ordering of a new green cablelaying vessel.”

Build and design

The vessel is being built by the Yantai CIMC Raffles Shipyard in China. The design is by Knud E Hansen. Components such as the Huisman crane and other technical systems are delivered to the yard by the various suppliers and integrated on site. The ship is expected to enter the market in 2024 and will work under the Dutch flag. Van Oord has also taken an option on a second vessel.

Arnoud Kuis, Managing Director Offshore Wind of Van Oord states, “Thanks to our experiences with the installation vessels Aeolus, MPI Resolution, and MPI Adventure, we have a good grasp of working with jackup installation vessels. Now we are going one step further – the new ship will be the largest of its kind. Compared to the Aeolus, this new version has 88% more deck space and over 80% more lifting capacity.” i. vanoord.com

1403 EUROPORT 2021 2021 IS A SPECIAL YEAR FOR SCHOTTEL, AS 21 NOVEMBER MARKS THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE COMPANY’S FOUNDING BY JOSEF BECKER. The trained locksmith opened his workshop in a small German village on the Rhine and almost 30 years later he wrote shipping history by inventing the rudder propeller that is steerable through 360 degrees.

tefan Kaul, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Schottel, says, “Our history is marked by bold decisions at the right time and having the courage to take bigger and bigger steps. Josef Becker laid the foundation for this in 1921. Since then, Schottel has grown continuously with the development, production, and sales of marine propulsion systems. Today, our propulsion solutions have made the seven seas their home. What we do, we do wholeheartedly: in all areas, according to the same high standard, all over the world.”

Powerful heritage

After Josef Becker established the workshop “J. Becker Maschinenbau-Werkstätte” in November 1921, he built and repaired machines for local farmers. In 1925, a move from land to water took place: he developed the sloop, a dinghy that is unsinkable due to large, permanently installed air boxes and can be rowed and turned easily. Only a few years later, Josef Becker started designing and constructing various motorboats, at that time still a novelty on the Rhine. To meet the growing need for space, a shipyard was built in 1934 on a nearby plot of land at Rhine kilometre 578.4 – the river section known as Schottel.

At the end of the 1940s, Josef Becker starts testing a propulsion system that would revolutionize shipping: the Schottel Rudder Propeller. As a starting point for his ideas, he took the well-known outboard drive. He finds the solution by using a Z-drive without

a separate rudder blade but with a propeller that can be steered 360 degrees around its own axis without any restrictions. This is the first time that steering and propulsion have been combined and vessels benefitted from the full power of the units during manoeuvring. With this invention, he paved the way for the company’s future. Domestic and foreign orders started pouring in quick succession. In 1967, Schottel equipped the Janus: the first harbour tug with rudder propellers. This set off a revolution in the push and tug boat market.

Internationalization from 1958

At the same time, the internationalisation of the company progresses. In 1958, Schottel Netherlands was founded as the first subsidiary abroad, followed by more than a dozen others worldwide. Today, Schottel is represented in all of the world’s key shipping centers. The workforce is growing, too: starting with a first apprentice in July 1922, the international Schottel Group currently employs around 850 people.

Tugs, ferries, offshore vessels

In 1967, Schottel equipped the Janus: the first harbour tug with rudder propellers.

Josef Becker, Founder of Schottel

Time and again, Schottel provides the answer to current needs of the maritime industry by means of newly developed propulsion solutions. Besides the global tugboat market, in which Schottel was able to secure dominance at an early stage, the company equips numerous ferries. At the end of the 1990s, new developments for the ferry market enabled the move from the harbour basin to the high seas. During the offshore boom, which will continue until

make Dörth one of the most modern rudder propeller factories in the world.

Solutions for vessels of all types and sizes

2015, the company secures a 20 percent market share in the offshore supply vessel segment.

Expansion of production capacities

In 1998, Schottel took over the company Wismarer Propeller und Maschinenbau (WPM), thereby expanding its product range to include controllable pitch propellers up to 30MW. In addition, retractable as well as particularly large SRP units are manufactured in Wismar today. When the founding location in Spay no longer offered any room for expansion, a new production site was opened in nearby Dörth in 2015.

There, the traditionally high vertical range of manufacture could be expanded and the production capacity was increased by about 30%. Optimised production processes, an apprentice workshop for the next generation, a motivating work environment and committed environmental protection,

With the invention of the rudder propeller in 1950, Josef Becker laid the foundation for Schottel becoming one of the world’s leading manufacturers of vessel propulsion systems. Decades of expertise in the field of propulsion combined with state-of-the-art technologies have enabled Schottel to offer a wide range of innovative and futureoriented products and services.

Today, Schottel products can be found on almost all types of vessels. In addition to Tug & Offshore Energy and Ferries, Yachts & Passenger Vessels, the company has a stable market position in the Merchant Vessels and Navy & Governmental segments. This applies equally to new vessels and to modernizations. Automation, propulsion control and hybrid propulsion systems extend the product range which is supplemented by marine services.

After sales service: keeping an eye on the entire life cycle

As already displayed by Josef Becker, customer proximity, competent advice and personal after sales service are still part of the Schottel philosophy today. Thanks to fast support, downtimes are reduced to a minimum and vessels are ready for

operation again in no time. In addition to the worldwide sales and service network, customers can attend seminars to update their technical knowledge: either locally, in one of the four training centers (Spay/ Germany, Houma/USA, Singapore, Fremantle/Australia), or online.

Powerful heritage, bright future

Mr Kaul continues, “The customer is the focus of our daily business. Those in the maritime industry who turn to Schottel have always been able to expect products and services of the highest standard. Our goal is to be the first choice in marine propulsion solutions. To this end, we use our entire wealth of experience and all our innovative strength to improve existing areas and expand into new ones. This and the powerful heritage of Josef Becker will help us to stay on course for a bright future.

Our history is marked by bold decisions at the right time and having the courage to take bigger and bigger steps. Josef Becker laid the foundation for this in 1921. Since then, Schottel has grown continuously with the development, production, and sales of marine propulsion systems.” i. schottel.de

n 1975, when the Railship I first entered service on the Travemünde (Germany) – Hanko (Finland) route, it has been the world’s largest railway ferry. While its length of about 180m was quite remarkable at that time, it would almost look like a toy ship next to today’s ULVCs (Ultra Large Container Vessels). On board the ferry were Sauer’s 3-stage air-cooled compressors, which was a first at that time. Almost five decades have passed since then, during which Sauer Compressors delivered over 30,000 of these starting-air compressors. Despite many developments, the basic operating principle of the technology has not changed a lot.

“Today, about 80% of large container ships are equipped with 3-stage air-cooled compressors, making them industry standard”, says Stephan Behrens, Global Head of Business Development Commercial Shipping at Sauer Compressors.

The WP100L was the first 3-stage air-cooled Sauer compressor installed on a ferry in 1975.

DECK EQUIPMENT & MACHINERY

While the compression temperatures of 2-stage water-cooled compressors are above 250°C, the 3-stage air-cooled compressors divide the compression ratio by three, enabling the temperatures to be up to 30% lower. This reduces maintenance costs.

The SAUER Passat WP81L Marine is Sauer Compressors’ smallest 3-stage air-cooled machine.

However, the comprehensive establishment of the 3-stage air-cooled starting-air compressors took some time. Many shipping companies and shipyards stuck with the previously common 2-stage water-cooled compressors, instead of switching to generally advantageous air-cooled machines.

Large ships, large engines, large fill-up capacity

For 3-stage air-cooled compressors, the service life of valves is up to 4,000 hours as opposed to 2,000 hours for water-cooled machines.

To start the ship’s engine, compressors fill 30 bar compressed air into air receivers whose volume is determined by the engine size. As required by the classification societies, the amount of compressed air must be sufficient for a certain amount of engine starts. The increase of the international trading volume starting in the 1950s led to bigger ships and engines and therefore a higher demand for compressed air. 2-stage water-cooled compressors were the most common solution for starting the ever larger diesel engines. Due to their comparably low fill-up capacity, the 2-stage air-cooled compressors that were commonly used for smaller ships were not a viable alternative.

But Sauer Compressors was eager to enable the use of air-cooled compressors for large ships and engines as well. In the early

Stephan Behrens, Global Head of Business Development Commercial Shipping at Sauer Compressors.

1970s, the company came up with the idea of adapting 3-stage air-cooled compressors as an established solution from the industrial sector to commercial shipping.

However, despite their successful application on the Railship I and several other ships, the 3-stage air-cooled compressors could not establish themselves as industry standard. “The building of large cargo ships was relocated to Asia and the local shipyards simply took over the established design standards”, explains Stephan Behrens. Only with the new millennium, the multi-stage air-cooled compressors were finally put on the standard makers list of the Asian shipyards.

Sauer Compressors was able to convince ship owners and builders not only with references but also with specific demonstrations. For this purpose, a 3-stage air-cooled compressor was installed in a TEU container and presented worldwide.

Reduced temperature

The 3-stage air-cooled compressors are bigger and therefore have a significantly higher fill-up capacity than the 2-stage air-cooled machines. The total heat to be dissipated is divided between three stages instead of two and the heat-dissipating surface area increases while the heatgenerating volume remains the same.

Air beats water

3-stage air-cooled compressors are superior to water-cooled machines for multiple reasons. By dividing the total compression ratio by three, the compression temperatures in the cylinders and valves of

air-cooled than for water-cooled compressors.

3-stage air-cooled compressors are superior to water-cooled machines for multiple reasons.

3-stage air-cooled compressors are up to 30% lower than those of 2-stage water cooled compressors, which may well reach 250°C. Due to these comparably low temperatures, there is no thermal cracking of standard mineral oils. The maintenance intervals of valves therefore increase to 4,000 hours in contrast to 2,000 hours for water-cooled compressors. Instead of expensive synthetic oils, conventional SAE-30 mineral oils such as those used in 2-stroke marine diesel engines for circulating lubrication of the crank drive may be used to lubricate the compressors. Thus, no expensive synthetic oil is required. With ongoing operation, the long-term maintenance costs are up to 30% lower for

Quick amortisation of air-cooled compressors

Cooling the starting-air compressor with room air makes a cooling water circuit obsolete. “This can save installation costs of over Eur 6,400”, states Stephan Behrens.

Moreover, it avoids leakages and troublesome condensate in the crank drive that occurs when travelling through different climate zones. Other benefits are reduced space requirements in the engine room, higher reliability, and minimum operating effort of the self-regulating air cooling. There is no need to modify the fan output of the engine room ventilation, since the waste heat of the compressor is negligible compared to the heat of the ship’s engine. i. sauercompressors.com
