80节航速!全球航速最快集装箱船将诞

2016-2-6

80节航速,燃耗减少74%,运力可达16,500TEU,一艘全球航速最快的集装箱船也许在不久之后就将诞生。据悉,挪威设计公司InSvivia Technologies(前Viking Ships)近日更新了80节航速概念船舶设计,将其燃料消耗减少了74%。InSvivia的这一概念设计已经获得了挪威专利。目前,InSvivia正在申请专利合作条约 (PCT)调查,以便进一步获取国际专利。

InSvivia的这艘概念船舶将成为全球航速最快的船。该船全长最大可达300米,最大深度为17米,运力可达16500TEU。不过,这一设计同样也可以适用于船型较小的船舶。
在之前的设计中,InSvivia称,计算流体动力学(CFD)分析结果显示出,相比其他低速行驶船舶,该概念船舶最多可以节省37%的燃料。

在近期对船舶设计做出进一步更新之后,InSvivia宣称,在使用2台较大的涡轮机来替换原有的4台涡轮机并进行其他优化之后,该船可以节省的燃料消耗提高到74%。

Viking Shiptech Introduces 80 Knot Ships

Norwegian company Viking Shiptech has developed a new patent pending shipping technology, which is expected to bring in considerable environmental benefits.

The concept combines the delivery time speed of air transport and price range applicable for shipping.

“The air transport has an 80 times higher CO2-emission than shipping, and is also 80 times more expensive. If we can move cargo from airplanes to ships, the eco winnings would be bigger than those introduced by any other measures, the company explains.

By moving only 3% of the cargo from airplanes, the reduction in CO2-emission is estimated to more than 80% with current fuel.

The new technological solution being introduced by Viking Shiptech are ships that can reach up to 80 knots of speed. Under the concept, a ship is powered by turbines that make a hundred times gyro stabilization, and then, the ship, gaining on the torque force, is being propelled forward “as cast in the sea”.Combined with a submersible Swath solution, it provides a 100 % stability in all speeds and up 10 meters high waves, the designer claims. On the other hand, an increased platform width is aimed at preventing the inclining of the vessel, distributing the cargo to lowered stacks and gravity. 

“Two jet engines in front of the platform reduce the air resistance, and then supply the subsea surface with an air layer that destroys the shear forces. High speed combined with a torque controlled pressure distribution make a permanent efficiency of air lubrication in all seas and weathers,” the company adds.

In terms of design capacity, the ships in question would feature up to 16,500 in TEU, 17 meters in maximum depth and up to 300 meters in length overall.

The design is said to be able to provide up to 37% in fuel savings when compared to slow moving ships, based on results of CFD-analysis.

According to Viking Shiptech, the 80 knots ship requires lower crewing requirement (-72%) when compared to what is currently required on regular ships.

“By compensating the building prices of four 16 knots ships with one 80 knots ship, the money from the residual three can be invested in technology instead of several ships,” the company added.

中国难拒30美元油价魅力 来自非洲和北海进口量飙

2016-2-2


尽管眼下中国经济增长接近二三十年来的最慢水平,但今年1月暴跌至每桶30美元的原油价格对于中国来说具有难以抗拒的吸引力,促使该国进一步扩大原油进口。

根据油轮租船市场数据显示,中国公司预定的油轮2月份将装载的西非原油量创至少是2011年以来的最高单月水平。中国还增加了从北海和俄罗斯原油产商手中购买的原油量,航线路程比从中东地区进口多出数千英里。中东地区是中国最主要的原油进口市场。

PetroMATrix GmbH
的董事总经理OliVier JaKOb表示,中国的原油需求飙升与近期的中国宏观经济消息相悖,但是符合中国在以往油价低平时期的一贯做法。当油价大幅回落的时候,中国就会增加石油储备。

过,虽然中国的这个动向乍看之下似乎对油价有利,但有数个原因可以说明,投资者不必对其过分激动,首先,原油运输数据实际上是获得12月份安哥拉政府和 中化集团之间贸易协议的提振。中化集团本月将装载8艘油轮,创该数据以来的最高水平。另外,国际能源署 (IEA)表示,中国今年将增加1.45亿桶原油存储能力,意味着进口并不一定与需求对等。

根据外媒汇编的航运跟踪数据显示,中国1月份装运了4艘油轮的北海原油,2015年全年9艘。除3艘装载福蒂斯原油(Forties)的超级油轮外,中国还购买了100万桶挪威艾科菲斯克 (Ekofisk)原油。

南通海事局打造"北煤南运"航线特

2016-2-1

25日深夜,经过连续三天的抢卸作业,从秦皇岛远道而来的东疆美轮,在南通海事局的重点监控下安全驶离江苏南通江心码头。55088电煤,一举将江 苏南通电厂电煤库存量拉升至10天以上,企业燃之急瞬时化解。这也成为南通海事局推出十四项服务举措全天候保障苏冀电煤航线安全高效运行的又一成功案例。

此前一周,南通海事局宣布,将全面推广先期试行的服务苏冀电煤航线14项举措,集中精力打造北煤南运的航线特区。

据介绍,安全、便捷、环保、廉洁的苏冀电煤航线品牌是江苏、河北两地海事部门共同发起的 全国首个跨海区大航线创建项目,整条航线跨越渤海、黄海、长江江苏段,距离长、运量大,保障要求高,管理复杂,涉及6500多艘船舶、近百家航运公司。条航线的开通,有利于降低物流成本、高运输效益,对于航运企业无疑是个利好消息,而尤为关键的是北煤南运将因此更加平稳、高效。

南通海事局天生港办事处处长袁孙华告诉记者,南通沿江分布着3家大型力企业,电煤年吞吐量达到1975万吨,参与运输的船舶达3000多艘次——如何保障能源的安全平稳供应其实早就是南通海事部门的题中之义了。

此次推出的14项服务举措包括:优先靠泊锚泊、一次登轮集中服务、开放式安检、船员培训、帮 助企业利用深水航道获得效益等等。在谈到这些举措对于电煤运输的裨益时,性格爽直的2”轮船长老胡深有感触:这几年,在跑船过程中,我们已经尝到了甜头。

比如远程电子签证,只要动动手指头,在手机上就能完成审批。这次南通海事部门服务举措的升级,可以说是让我们吃了定心丸

实上,从去年210日正式实行海船远程电子签证以来,南通地区已有232艘海船申请注册并获得电子签证账号。南通海事局全年共办理电子签证1.4万艘次,占同期海船航次签证的95.52%节省行政相对人路途奔波和办理时间约2万小时,船舶快进快出成效明显。

由于南通位于上海港和宁波港北部,在南通接卸来自北方的煤炭,再转水、铁或内河运输,能够很 大程度上缩短北方港口煤炭南运的周转时间。在目前电价下降、煤炭高库存的情况下,南通海事部门推出十四项服务举措务品牌,对于贯通北方能源中转基地长三角能源消费市场具有重大意义。

南通海事局政委沈道明说:今后,我们将进一步探索安全监管方式和创建合作共治格局,打好前站、下好先手棋为企业减负增效,为他们解决后顾之忧。

Ports prepare for mandatory weighing of containers     英国港口准备货箱过磅设施

Felixstowe in the UK has become the latest port to confirm that it will offer a container weighing service to ensure shippers are able to comply with amended SOLAS regulations coming into force on 1 July 2016.

Commenting on the new service, Port of Felixstowe coo Stephen Abraham, said:“We have met with many customers and from their feedback it is clear that there is still a lot of uncertainty amongst exporters about the new rules.” Full details of the new service will be provided in time for compliance, he added.

Amended SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) regulations require shippers to provide a Verified Gross Mass (VGM) for all ocean containers before they are loaded aboard ship, in order for carriers to be able to draw up appropriate ship stowage plans.

IMO’s new rules have been introduced following safety fears that mis-declared weights were causing container stacks to collapse and/or causing stability problems aboard laden boxships. As the deadline for their entry into force approaches, however, fears are rising that they could cause serious disruptions to supply chains.

At a Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) seminar on the subject last week in London, hosted by lawyers Holman Fenwick Willan,

a representative of Port of Tilbury’s London Container Terminal said they planned to offer container weighing but would levy a fee for the service on the carrier, who would in turn have to claim it back from the shipper - whose legal responsibility it will be from 1 July onwards to provide the VGM.

CHARTERING- Tanker (2016-02-10)

 

Crude

The activity in the VLCC market dwindled away as expected due to Chinese New Year and IP week in London distracting charterers interest and focus on the spot market. Rates ex MEG remained stable as the month is coming to an end with at time of writing about 115 fixtures done. The Atlantic continued the stable trend from last week with limited activity reported. Last week saw a steady market with a soft undertone ex West Africa for Suezmaxes as charterers kept on drip-feeding the market with cargoes. As the fixing window for end-month West Africa seems to have come to an end, it might be the rates has bottomed for the time being, more cargoes has resurfaced and introduced to the market giving it a bit of a stand-off for the time being as some owners are looking more optimistic as we move into 1st decade March loading. In the North Sea and Baltic, market has been looking a bit softer as we expected. Rates dropped 10 points in the Baltic this week, but as activity picked up, list is now looking thinner. Even though the Baltic is covered up to the 25th, we believe the market has a slight upward potential going forward, with fuel as uncertain factor that could help owners the upcoming week. In the Med1Black Sea we have seen quite good activity the last week. Bad weather in the area have created some delays, and we now see the position list shrinking for the first time in a while. We have seen more ships leaving the area, both ballasting and with cargo, which should help the market going forward. Rates are still at bottom levels, but for the week to come we expect market to slowly recover. 

CHARTERING- Dry bulk (2016-02-10)

CAPE

The week has been heavily influenced by the Chinese New Year celebrations in the Far East. China is off the entire week and several other countries have been off for a few days as well. The market activity been very limited and the freight rates are flat. The West Australia market have since Christmas been steadily holding tick below USD 3 pmt mark, and the TC market for Pacific round voyage is around the USD 20001day . There is a further increase in shipowners who now want to fix out their tonnage for period, as they see market is not likely to improve in near future, and period market still pays nearly the double of what the spot market presently trading at . However the period market is now well below OPEX.

PANAMAX

With Chinese New Year and most Asian countries away at the beginning of the week, it has been a very slow start. Rates are hovering around same levels as last done while the upcoming ECSA grain season is relighting some positiveness amongst owners. The start of the week has been in a wait-and-see modus where owners have been waiting for players to return from holidays. TA's are paying around 2k depending on duration and destination, while front h auls have increased somewhat with 6k being done. In the Pacific we see the rounds are being fixed in the low 2k's.

SUPRAMAX

The past week has been influenced by the Chinese Lunar New Year celebrations. A quiet end to last week and an even quieter start to this week. Although there is some hope for a rally once the market is back at work, there is no sign of same yet. The Pacific is still wobbling around the USD 2000 mark, and the Atlantic is not faring much better. The fronthaul numbers have improved slightly and are ahead of the paper market now. This leg is presently trading at about USD 6000+USD 60,000 in ballast bonus. Period has been concluded at a premium to the spot market, but forward cargos are demanding a discount, if that is possible, to the spot market.

CHARTERING- Gas (2016-02-10)

The VLGC market was as quiet as we expected last week, most of Asia was away on Chinese New Year holidays at the same time as a big portion of the LPG community was1still is in London for the IP week. The VLGC freight market has dropped a few notches, as has the Baltic VLGC index. Some charterers are making queries about "discounted" freight from the US Gulf to Far East, however, owners are not quite ready to consider those levels. The charterers look for rates around USD 90 per ton USG1Chiba - equal to about USD 35,0001day - while the owners current best is around USD 38,0001day (low USD 100 pmt) . By the look of it the spread between Belvieu and Asian LPG pricing is not going to improve over the next few months, therefore it will be interesting to see if1when this freight gap can be bridged. For now only traders with long term TCs or owned vessels can ship from the USG. We have seen very little spot activity from the Indian charterers lately, and they may not have any more spot cargoes in February as they soon take delivery of two more BW T1C vessels. In addition another Indian major oil company has just confirmed a modern VLGC T1C for 2 years from March. We do not see any upside in the VLGC spot market ahead, but we also believe the downside risk is rather limited provided that LPG produced for export has to be sold1moved.
