- COMPACT & EFFICIENT VESSEL DESIGN:
– Best ratio of Cargo-volume vs Gross-tonnage
– Low harbour and operating costs
– Safe access to restricted areas, harbours and channels
- CARGO-TANK DESIGN FOR OPERATIONAL ADVANTAGES:
– Always adequate draught & trim conditions
– Minimum ballast water requirements
– Low boil-off rate
– Design pressure 0.25 – 0.7 barg. Higher pressure up to 2 barg depending on operational requirements
- MAJOR ADVANTAGES THROUGH FULL DOUBLE HULL (BOTTOM, SIDES AND DECK):
– Safe operation even in damaged situation of the double hull
– No flooding of cargo hold in case of damage
– No damage of the insulation system by sea-water ingress
– Limited repair down-time
– More safety in congested harbour areas leads to better public image.
