To mark Mandela Day 2022, on 18 July 2022, the management and staf of Damen Shipyards Cape Town (DSCT) have reached out to support the local disadvantaged communities of Wolwerivier and Radar bush. The principle underlying Mandela Day is that everyone has the ability to make a positive impact by doing something in their own way to change the world and the world of those around them. To do this, DSCT has participated in the associated ‘My 67 Minutes’ initiative that encourages everyone to take 67 minutes – one minute for every year that Mandela fought for human rights and social justice – out of their day to do something for someone else or for their community. i. damen.com DSCT Personnel and Wolwerivier Community.
George Papaioannides, Partner of Saronic Ferries, says, “We are taking a step towards a cleaner world and we envision our operation in the Saronic Islands to be the inspiration for others to initiate more green feet renewal projects in Greece.” “We lead the way encouraging potential stakeholders to embrace change and move things forward, both on the vessel design front and on the land-based infrastructure and supply. One can’t come without the other”, adds Joseph Lefakis, Partner of Saronic Ferries.

EST-Floattech
contracted to deliver complete ESS package Dutch maritime energy storage solutions provider EST-Floattech has been contracted by system integrator Hoogendijk Electric to design and deliver the complete Battery System for a Norwegian newbuild: the third Hybrid Coaster for Hagland, currently being built at Royal Bodewes shipyard and due for delivery halfway 2023. EST-Floattech’s battery system enables the 5,000DWT self-discharging bulk carrier to make zeroemission port calls. The vessel, one of a series of three, will also sail in full-electric mode, for example in environmentally sensitive environments, such as in fords or near-coastal communities. When there is no shore connection available the battery system also allows for zero-emission discharging of the transported bulk cargo.
Huisman has developed a 700mt Travelling Quayside Crane for the load-out of ofshore wind turbine components. The move comes as a result of rising demand for large, 2,600mt and 4,000mt Skyhook Cranes for the load-out of foundation pieces and installation of foating turbines. Huisman is committed to driving the growth of renewable energy and making heavy project logistics more sustainable. With this 700mt Travelling Quayside Crane, the load-out process of ofshore wind turbine components can take place signifcantly faster compared to the regular methods that involve crawler cranes, or a tandem-lifting by two cranes with a capacity around 200mt to 300mt. The new Quayside Crane has been designed fully electric, allowing for a direct connection to the quayside power grid.

Innovation has never looked so good
W ith its new mobile harbour crane, Liebherr requires a software update by Liebherr and thus ofers more fexibility. Another practical advantage is the variable use of digital IP cameras for better monitoring of the crane interior as well as the external crane environment. The new crane control is supplied by an independent power circuit. This means that the crane can be continuously monitored by cameras and efciently protected without the crane ignition being activated.
The new LHM is more digital, more efcient, and impresses with a modern exterior design. A new crane control system, advanced sensor integration, and digital information transmission enable future assistance and partial automation systems. In addition, the Liebherr Pactronic hybrid system and the operator’s cab have been improved to meet customer needs.

shipbuilding-industry.eu technology. An accumulator serves as an energy storage and provides support when needed by supplying additional, temporarily stored power. The second generation of the Pactronic ofers the operator a choice of two operating modes, depending on the current work situation: Boost mode In this mode, the Pactronic 2.0 acts as a signifcant power amplifer. Lifting speeds are signifcantly increased, without the aid of a larger or even additional engine for more power. This massively increases the efciency of the crane. The LHM together with a Pactronic 2.0 hybrid system provides a reduced cargo-handling time and achieves the same performance parameters as a comparable device with two main units. Green mode This mode is designed to save fuel or power consumption and to reduce CO2 emissions. During the lifting process, the Pactronic supports the main unit to such an extent that less power is required by the main drive, despite the lifting speeds remaining the same. As a result, absolute fuel or power consumption and emissions are reduced. The secondgeneration Pactronic is thus even more closely aligned to the actual needs of the user. By setting the individual lifting height, the power output of the Pactronic is adjusted accordingly. The additional energy of the Pactronic is distributed over the entire lifting process.

Looking good The colour compositions of the latest LHM generation combine the classic Liebherr yellow with new accents in black, grey, and white. The agile-looking design refects how long-standing tradition and corporate values combine with advanced technologies. The modern colour scheme gives the machines a distinctive look and instant recognition. The blue accent in the colour composition and also the blue E-symbol next to the crane type, give all alternatively powered machines a distinctive look. This allows all future LHM customers to directly communicate advanced and environmentally friendly crane technology to their stakeholders.
New maritime cabin
Thanks to the new coupling of control lever and armrest, not only does the driver’s comfort increase, but the control of the crane also becomes even more precise and safe.
The redesign of the LHM operator’s cab focuses on the crane operator. Thanks to the new coupling of control lever and armrest, not only does the driver’s comfort increase, but the control of the crane also becomes even more precise and safe. With the new integrated touch panel, all crane functions can be selected clearly and intuitively, which greatly simplifes the operation of the crane. An integrated bottle cooler provides cool drinks – even on warm days. A revised air-conditioning concept signifcantly increases the well-being of the operator, whether air-conditioning or heating. It also ensures that fogged windows are quickly dehumidifed, thus providing a clear view and more safety.
It is also important to note that the new Pactronic reacts to changes in the outside temperature and the accompanying change in pressure in the reservoir, thus further increasing the efciency of the system.

“We were excited, of course, but had no idea it’d take of in this way – that other stakeholders, from maritime and beyond, would seize on the potential and huge commercial and environmental opportunity here.” He continues, “I think the timing has been absolutely critical. I mean we’ve been thinking about Thorium and nuclear Silver bullet for zero emission?
E verything about the launch of Ulstein THOR was unexpected. The vessel concept, a 149m 3R (Replenishment, Research and Rescue) design with a Thorium Molten Salt Reactor (MSR), took the industry, and wider society, by surprise. Its unveiling at Seatrade, Miami in late April unleashed a wave of global media coverage, spilling over beyond the trade press onto news platforms like CNN, kickstarting countless conversations about the future of Thorium as one of the most viable sources of clean energy for deep sea shipping.
From drawing board to operation No one was as taken aback as Ulstein’s Chief Designer Øyvind G. Kamsvåg. “I think we’d been operating in a bit of a bubble”, he says, from Ulstein’s base in the spectacular surroundings of Ulsteinvik on the west coast of Norway.
GREEN SHIP TECHNOLOGY 18 | SBI 2022 | Volume 16 | Issue 4 shipbuilding-industry.eu
Shipbuilder and designer Ulstein is looking to take its revolutionary Thorium powered vessel concept from the drawing board to the deep blue sea. Is this the solution that industry and society have been searching for to enable a truly sustainable maritime future? OF ULSTEIN.
THOR to the rescue
Tomorrow’s solutions today
Mr Kamsvåg’s reference to the concept as a “a key enabler” is one of the aspects that supercharged interest in what was almost immediately recognised as so much more than a standalone vessel concept. At the time of its launch, Ulstein presented the idea as a way to charge an all-electric cruise ship concept, Ulstein SIF, demonstrating its commercial viability. However, its potential was seen to stretch far beyond that, as Mr Kamsvåg now reveals. “THOR has a superpower, right?” he smiles. “And there’s a multitude of applications and operational capabilities where that can be utilised. Beyond the zero emissions and remote replenishment, research and rescue functionality, the vessel’s reactor could be used as an emergency power supply for regions hit by natural disasters, epidemics, or conflicts. Similarly, it could be utilised as part of society’s renewable energy mix and compensate for fluctuating power supplies – e.g., from offshore wind parks – by supporting grid networks. The huge power capacity available could also be utilised for producing alternative fuels, or synthetic fuels through a CO2 refinery, or for delivering shore power at ports. And all that functionality is before we even get on to the different vessel types where THOR can either be used to recharge all-electric ships, or integrated MSRs can be housed within vessels as the primary power source.”
GREEN SHIP TECHNOLOGY shipbuilding-industry.eu SBI 2022 | Volume 16 | Issue 4 | 19 vessels since 2008, but we didn’t know if the industry was ready. Now, clearly, it is! So, how can we take this from the drawing board to operation as a key enabler for a sustainable maritime industry? “That’s the next, critical step... and we’re not alone in being keen to move forwards.”
Øyvind G. Kamsvåg – Ulstein’s Chief Designer. >> Ulstein’s vessel concept, a 149m 3R (Replenishment, Research and Rescue) design with a Thorium Molten Salt Reactor (MSR), took the industry, and wider society, by surprise.
“We always design with the best solution in mind for the application, but we’re guided by our vision to create tomorrow’s solutions for sustainable marine operations.”
Ulstein, for those unfamiliar with the relatively small, privately-owned business, is renowned within its niche for delivering innovations that shift industry paradigms. The most obvious are the X-BOW and the X-STERN; sloping designs that glide through the oceans to deliver greater operability, comfort, operational functionality and energy efficiency. June saw the company sign its first contract to design TWIN X-STERN offshore wind CSOVs (construction service operating vessels) with dual-fuel methanol engines: an agreement that shows how Ulstein takes an effective, step-change approach on the path to a zero emissions future. “We always design with the best solution in mind for the application”, Mr Kamsvåg notes, “but we’re guided by our vision to create tomorrow’s solutions for sustainable marine operations. That has driven all The team who presented ULSTEIN THOR at Seatrade Miami. L to R: Lars Ståle Skoge, Torill Muren, and Øyvind Gjerde Kamsvåg.
“THOR essentially operates as a foating, mobile, multi-purpose ‘power station’,” she says, “one that never needs refuelling – instantly creating the ocean infrastructure needed to facilitate a new battery revolution. In THOR’s case, it would ofer the charging capacity to satisfy the power needs of four expedition cruise ships (Ulstein SIFs), as well as providing research facilities for polar operations, and acting as a rescue vessel for remote regions where there is simply no emergency response capacity. We see it as the missing piece of the puzzle when it comes to enabling safe, sustainable operations, anywhere on Earth. As such, it really does have the capability to transform our industry.”
The headline grabber with the concept was undoubtedly the use of the MSR, which works by dissolving Thorium – an abundant, naturally occurring metal with low radioactivity – in liquid salt. This creates a chain reaction that heats the salt, producing steam to drive a turbine and generate emissions free electricity.

GREEN SHIP TECHNOLOGY 20 | SBI 2022 | Volume 16 | Issue 4 shipbuilding-industry.eu our innovations – from the X-BOW to hybrid and electric solutions – and THOR is clearly connected to that creative red thread.”
Electric revolution At present, there’s no ‘silver bullet’ for deep sea maritime, with heated debate on which fuel will accelerate the industry towards the zero emissions horizon. Batteries are already established within short sea circles and THOR –when solid-state batteries come online – could literally transfer the same development to the deep for relevant segments, while others use integrated MSRs as their dedicated power source. Again, it’s a question of infrastructure.
Enabling change
Generating interest ‘Limitless’ is a phrase that also works to describe the interest in THOR since it thundered onto the scene at Seatrade. Closeup of THOR with its autonomous recharging vehicle.
The technology is proven and safe, but, until Ulstein took centre stage, had yet to be incorporated into a vessel design. However, it was the application that proved as stimulating for stakeholders as the energy source, as Torill Muren, Lead Naval Architect, Ulstein Design & Solutions, makes clear.
“THOR essentially operates as a foating, mobile, multi-purpose ‘power station’, one that never needs refuelling – instantly creating the ocean infrastructure needed to facilitate a new battery revolution.”
“Look at the adoption of electric cars in Norway”, says Mr Kamsvåg, by way of comparison. “65% of all cars sold in Norway last year were electric, with that fgure rising to 84% in January 2022. Nobody that needs a car wants to wreck the environment, but you must have the charging infrastructure in place to enable a meaningful switch to zero emissions transport; something that has been achieved with great success in Norway. THOR, or a concept like it, is the solution for establishing that same charging infrastructure at sea. In fact, that’s such a unique commercial opportunity. Why doesn’t somebody, a wealthy individual or a progressive company, buy a feet of THORs and suddenly create a network of foating charging stations to power green shipping? What an amazing opportunity for a new, sustainable revenue stream. The possibilities of this are almost limitless.”
Accelerating innovation
Ulstein says it has been inundated with enquiries and media requests from people eager to probe the feasibility of MSRs and the concept, and, Ms Muren states, it’s all been positive. “We expected some pushback,” she notes, “but apart from a few outlying comments here and there on social media it’s been universally enthusiastic. The Class societies we’ve spoken to are, if anything, eager to push this and look into the idea of drafting approvals in principle and white papers. At the same time research is gathering momentum, with new funding just allocated by the Norwegian Research Council (NFR) for a maritime nuclear power project at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). We know that technology developers and suppliers very clearly see the potential, Flag States have, so far, seemed very positive, and forward-thinking clients are intrigued by the idea of a reliable, emissions free and stable source of power.”
Ulstein concept designs for THOR and SIF joint operations.
Mr Kamsvåg states, “The war in Ukraine and the shifting geopolitical situation have demonstrated the need for energy security, or even self-sufciency, while the very pressing demand for transitioning to more sustainable ways of doing business is top of everyone’s agendas now. We need to take action to change, and THOR, and Thorium, demonstrate a tangible way forward.” But, is this feasible? Can it work? And when? Mr Kamsvåg seems convinced that MSRs are ideal for maritime, pointing to the fact that other nuclear solutions are already in use on, for example, naval air craft carriers and submarines. MSRs, he says, ofer a simpler, safer option. Technology developers are already well underway with analogous projects (such as power barges and desalination plants) and the interest is clear… so “yes” is his unequivocal answer to the frst two questions.

But when? Mr Kamsvåg delivers a fnal smile, noting, “Well, if you asked me to give a conservative estimate I’d say ten to ffteen years before all the pieces are in place to launch THOR into operations. BUT, when there’s a very clear need, it’s human nature to supercharge innovation to achieve goals. Just look at how quickly a COVID vaccine was developed, tested, and approved. A ten-year approval norm became one year when we had no choice. And do we have a choice in switching to a zero-emissions maritime industry? No, we do not. It’s time for THOR.” i. ulstein.com Ulstein´s Chief Designer Øyvind G. Kamsvåg and Torill Muren, Lead Naval Architect, Ulstein Design & Solutions.

N ippon Paint Marine has been at the forefront of technical innovation in marine paint for 140 years. Since being the frst marine paint company to produce tin-free selfpolishing antifouling in 1991, and now being the only company to have a true biocide free self-polishing antifouling, innovation and dedicated research have been the keys to stay ahead and keep the environment safe. The company has shown its ability to innovate fast and efectively, which makes Nippon Paint Marine one of the industry’s most valuable players. Let’s take a look at where the company is today and dive deeper into some of their latest successes.
Nippon Paint Marine expects more vessels in KSS Line’s 31 strong feet to adopt a FASTAR system at scheduled drydockings later this year. Excluding these new applications, the marine coatings pioneer has to date supplied antifouling systems to the petrochemical carriers Duke Chemist, E Chemist, Falcon Chemist, and the gas carriers Gas Quantum, Gas Utopia and Gas Venus. i. nipponpaint-marine.com
Nippon Paint Marine’s FASTAR I® has been selected for the trio of energy-effcient box ships the Tsuneishi Group is building for China’s Jiangsu Ocean Shipping Co (JOSCO).
The application followed the success of the coating on KSS Line’s 84,000m3 capacity Gas Star, which was applied in December 2021 at the Yeosu Ocean shipyard in Gwangyang Bay, South Korea. In both cases, FASTAR I replaced Nippon Paint Marine’s popular A-LFSea® 150 product on the vessels’ fat bottom and vertical sides, representing the frst commercial reference for the new coating not only on a Koreanowned ship but also an LPG carrier.
The advanced technologies to which Lian Jian Guo refers include Tsuneishi’s TOP-GR and MT-FAST systems, of which the former optimises the number, diameter, shape and geometric distribution of propeller blades to achieve greater propulsive efciency. Further efciency gains are achieved with MT-FAST, which adds a wing-like device to the front of the propeller to alter water fows.

With EAL oils already being quite expensive, mineral oils are also increasing in price due to worldwide developments. Therefore, the infatable seal now also fnds its purpose in oil lubricated stern tube applications. Once in dry dock, the shipowner can decide to infate these seals and keep the oil inside the stern tube, whilst maintaining the aft and forward stern tube seals. It is unnecessary to change the lube oil in the stern tube when the lubricant is still in good condition. With the infatable seal from Lagersmit installed you ensure a real money saver. How does an infatable seal work?

SBI 2022 | Volume 16 | Issue 4 | 39
The infatable seal assembly itself consists of two parts: an NBR seal profle and a plastic support ring which fts inside the cross section of the rubber seal (fg. 2). This support ring ensures air tightness at the interface surfaces. The infatable seal is ftted in a seal housing (ring) together with a closing (adaptor) ring (fg. 2). Having the infatable module enables insitu maintenance. Bonding divisible lip seals in situ is a cost-efective alternative of seal replacement without disassembling / removing the shaft or propeller. In this way an unnecessary dry dock can be prevented, and maintenance can be postponed safely. Under normal circumstances, during operation, the infatable seal will be in its defated state (fg. 2, left). The infatable seal makes no contact with the (rotating) shaft. In case of emergency or if maintenance is due while afoat the seal can be infated (fg. 2, right). For static sealing against an idle shaft the seal is infated using a pressurized medium provided by an external pump. After infation the pressurized seal will contact the opposing shaft surface, providing a radial acting static seal. The infatable seal is designed to handle a maximum pressure diference between inside and outside pressure of 10bar. Is the infatable seal also suitable for applications with large radial bearing play? A great efort is made in the infatable seal design to make it suitable for applications that sufer from large bearing wear or applications that are coping with large shaft to bore misalignments. Radial eccentricity up to 2mm is allowed, making this infatable seal ideal for insitu maintenance for open water lubricated stern tube systems or respectively tidal turbines or any other application that needs to deal with large radial bearing play, giving you a reliable sealing solution for years to come.
Can I get the infatable seal as add-on? For the most common stern tube seal applications the infatable seal can be added to the existing Supreme Aft seal and Supreme Fwd seal. The interface dimensions of the infatable seal can be engineered to the required dimensions, making the seal suitable for retroftting the existing seal. The Lagersmit infatable seal can be supplied for shaft diameters of 70 up to 890mm.
