OPPORTUNITIES BUILT IN AFRICA

ON THE RADAR 26

There is a market for new builds in Africa. From harbour tugs to fishing vessels, patrol vessels and offshore support vessels – Africa’s maritime sectors are investing in fleet renewals and acquisitions. Recent deliveries show, however, that that many of these vessels are being sourced from outside of the region – despite capacity being available on the continent for either complete builds or for collaborative build projects. Editor, Colleen Jacka, takes a closer look.

Just getting on with it The hard lockdown had a major impact on the marine engineering, ship repair and boat building sectors as many workshops remained closed at the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic and faced immense challenges to return to work as regulations eased. Today many are playing catch-up; rebuilding lost orders and realigning ambitious growth goals that were set at the end of 2019.

COVER STORY | SANDOCK AUSTRAL SHIPYARDS

Building an African maritime legacy

Occupying over 11 hectares of industrial land at Maydon Wharf in the Port of Durban, Sandock Austral Shipyards’ austere history within the country’s shipbuilding space is being rewritten with a fresh perspective that acknowledges these past chapters while focusing on developing an exciting future storyline. Maritime Review caught up with Chief Executive Officer, Prasheen Maharaj for a frank discussion about the impact of COVID-19 as well as how their strategic planning will shape the company’s vision in the short to medium term.

Maritime Review Africa ISSUE TWO | 2020

A strategic look at retaining historical strengths for future growth

hrugging off the effects of the lockdown on production, Maharaj notes that the pandemic emphasised a number of fractures that needed addressing including supply chain disruption as well as the availability of scarce skills locally. He also notes that the pandemic will have cancelled or at least delayed a number of tenders for new builds, which will impact on the sector as a whole.

Ship building, repair and maintenance

“COVID-19 was both a blessing and a curse. It exposed a broken system,” he says explaining that the absence of critical technical skills locally was amplified as experts were unable to enter the country for a number of months. This did, however, highlight the viability of remote working. It is the realisation that not every person needs to physically be on site in their Durban facility that led to the establishment of

Sandock Austral India – effectively penning the beginning of a new chapter in the company’s history that will focus heavily on technology and collaboration for international growth. Maharaj is clearly excited about the prospects for this office that houses the skills of naval architects, marine electronics engineers, engineering estimators and project managers. “This development will help make us globally competitive while we continue to localise wherever possible,” he explains as he highlights the benefits of developing access to these proficiencies.

MARINE ENGINEERING

Five-point strategic plan

The establishment of this office was borne out of a five-point strategy built on lessons learned during this time as well as their vision for the future. The starting point of this strategy revolves around scale. Maharaj is quick to point out that this does not entail seeking potential acquisitions, but rather concentrates on developing scale through collaboration. “We want to look at creating a network that scales our own capacity by combining the output of smaller companies regionally to deliver projects collaboratively,” he explains. The next pillar in their revised strategy is a strengthened focus

on technology. “Our focus will not be purely on fabrication, but on the high-tech input into projects where we provide technology and project management that empowers our network of collaborators.” The natural follow-on to this is the need to develop a depth of skills and intellectual property that will sustain the brand within the international market. “We need our own design capacity and IT systems to back this up,” he notes. The imperative to diversify is next on Maharaj’s strategic list. “We can no longer rely on the South African market. We need to access projects from around the globe within the shipbuilding, the repair and the oil and gas sectors,” he says emphasising the opportunity that exists to develop an integrated transport system on the continent’s inland waterways. And lastly, the impact of COVID-19 has certainly stressed the need for resilience. “COVID-19 was obviously a big shock and it

showed us how to survive during very difficult circumstances and that we can draw on our history of survival,” he explains. “We find ourselves in a strong position. We have more engineers than ever and are developing our intellectual property by mapping out all of our business processes. We are establishing a set of standard operating procedures that can be rolled out to our network partners in order to empower them to work to our international standards and benchmarks,” he says admitting that this is a painstaking, yet rewarding undertaking. Collaboration is key

Speaking more philosophically, Maharaj says that the survival of the human race has only been possible through collaboration, but he also acknowledges that the tendency for individualistic pursuits has scuppered some scope for true advancement. “We have a new vision for collab-

oration within the shipbuilding sector that aims to create an African maritime legacy,” he says explaining the need to develop and share transformative technologies across a network of companies. For him the advancement of Africa’s inland waterways as viable transport corridors is key and could likely be a game changer for marine manufacturing. Plans in this regard are advanced and role-players are already being

with the milestones that we have attained thus far,” he says. The three-year long build project is providing work for more than 500 people, including apprentices, artisans, technicians, engineering interns and engineers in different disciplines. According to numbers released by SAS, the project will also create about 3,500 indirect jobs. SAS boasts shipbuilding facilities that consist of an undercover fabrication workshop of 320m x 46m. This area is serviced by nine overhead cranes, which include two 30-ton gantry cranes capable of a 60-ton tandem lift. The shipyard has a long-standing relationship with the Navy that dates back to the 1970s when the yard was upgraded to undertake an extensive naval building programme that included the delivery of six strikecraft, two minehunters as well as the construction of the 147m SAS Drakensberg.

The ship repair team also recently undertook the complete refurbishment of the Bright Sky pontoons that required welding, high-pressure washing, blasting and repainting. In another contract, the SAS team completed a two-week project on the general cargo vessel, the Diamond Land which included the corrosion protection of the four 1,200 m² cargo hatches

as well as the degreasing and fresh water pressure cleaning to prepare for full grit blasting and painting work. Earlier this year the team completed repairs to the JSP Porto whose main fresh water cooler needed to be removed and cleaned. This involved the use of a specialised ultrasonic and chemical bath process in their repair workshop. In addition, a pressure test was conducted to identify any leaking tubes before the cooler was reassembled on board. Apprenticeship training

The Apprenticeship Training Programme that was established in 2008, remains key to the shipyard’s commitment to train boilermakers, fitters and electricians. “We produce quality artisans that receive multi-faceted training consisting of classroom lectures, practical drawing and shop-floor

experience,” says Maharaj. “The SAS Apprentice Training Program has qualified close to 100 quality artisans since its inception. One third of these artisans are courageous females who didn’t shy away from going head-to-head with their male counterparts,” he adds. While the company receives some outside funding for their apprenticeship initiative, it still costs SAS more than half a million rand over the four-year apprenticeship required to train a new generation in these skills. Accountability

Maharaj concludes our interview with a commitment to be accountable to the company’s ambitions to help drive Africa’s maritime legacy. “We can longer be complacent, and accountability is important if we want to deliver on our vision. The legislation and the strategy for both the country and the continent is there, but we need to see it implemented,” he says emphasising the need to end the paralysis within public institutions and departments that continues to stifle investment and growth.

Collaborative approach for local marine engineering

fter many years of collaboration and working together on various projects, five South African engineering companies teamed up to establish a new entity that aims to draw on the combined resources and specialisation of each of the companies to focus on local projects. CINCO Engineering was initially established with five shareholding companies including Belmet Marine, Nico’s Engineering, 3C Metal South Africa, Akram Consulting and MCM Blasting and Coating – thus combining the fabrication abilities, ship repair capacities, high pressure piping expertise, Non-Destructive Testing abilities and corrosion protection services of the companies respectively. Following the merger of Belmet Marine and 3C Metal South Africa to form 3C Metal Belmet, however, there are now four shareholders companies.

As a Level 2 B-BBEE level company, CINCO is 51 percent black owned and 31 percent black female owned entity. CINCO Engineering offers a full scope of engineering services that draws on the strength of its shareholding companies. The Company is focused on undertaking engineering projects in the marine, general industrial, mining, oil and gas, power generation and renewable energy sectors with special emphasis on site installation and turnkey projects that include fabrication, site installation, ship repairs, NDT and high pressure piping. As Hanno du Toit, recently appointed Operations Manager for CINCO, notes; “the company is ideally situated to service the dry-dock and surrounds with a 4,000 square metre workshop and a 850 square metre blast booth located at 7 Ocean Road, Table

Bay Harbour”. Originally a Project Manager at 3C Metal Belmet, Hanno has taken up the reins of the operational management of CINCO Engineering overseeing all the fabrication, supply and deployment activities of the company. Cinco is currently, amongst other work, engaged in a large turnkey project in the diamond mining sector requiring all the combined specialist services of the shareholding companies. “This project embodies the multi-specialised nature of the company and its ability to provide large scale turnkey engineering solutions,” notes Du Toit.

PIPING As an owner-managed entity, Cinco Engineering offers a full scope of engineering services that draws on the strength of its shareholding companies. Cinco Engineering is focused on undertaking engineering projects in the marine, general industrial, mining, oil and gas, power generation and renewable energy sectors with special emphasis on site installation and turnkey projects that include fabrication.

ith ambitious plans for the future that include venturing into the shipbuilding space and expanding to occupy workshop facilities within the Saldanha Bay Industrial Development Zone (SB-IDZ), Anchora Enterprises has used the extraordinary circumstances presented by the COVID-19 pandemic to focus on re-engineering their own business strategy. “During a time where uncertainty across the globe is peaking, it is important to remain calm and focused,” says Managing Director, Keith Govender. Govender believes that innovation, flexibility and realignment are key during any crisis. His efforts over the last few months have been focused on safeguarding his team, clients and all stakeholders.

Maritime Review Africa ISSUE TWO | 2020

Shipbuilding ambitions

But the pandemic is not holding them back and Govender revealed a number of high-level plans in an interview with Maritime Review recently. These include a steadfast pursuit of growth for the company that will incorporate ambitions to commence shipbuilding activities within the SB-IDZ by as early as 2021. “I have always seen the IDZ as an important opportunity for the maritime sector,” he told us, adding that – with the right focus and infrastructure in place – the IDZ offers an ideal environment for the marine manufacturing sector. Govender projects that, once up and running, their facility could create about 285 direct and indirect jobs over the next three years. Having met with a number of local businesses and business leaders in the Saldanha-Bay area,

Govender is confident that there are the skills and expertise available to offer a comprehensive range of services that the shipyard will require including transport, logistics and even blasting and painting. In addition, he predicts that a number of Cape Town-based services companies will establish satellite facilities as the area attracts more business. Already advanced in terms of securing the capital for investment in infrastructure, Govender is hopeful that plans for the official opening of the facility will align with potential build projects that he is currently in the process of securing for the company. “I am engaging with experts and we are busy looking at the investment required in equipment and tools to get the yard up and running,” he says adding that the yard will seek to partner with a

network of subcontractors and service providers in order to boost the opportunities for more business development. As a Level 1 B-BBEE player in the market, Govender believes that Anchora Enterprises will be able to meet the local market requirements for government-related builds in the future, but also notes the need for a more serious approach to local content directives. “South African companies have the ability to deliver quality components to the sector,” he says suggesting that the 60% local content directive for new-builds could be set higher to support the sustainability of more marine manufacturing. Marine servicing platform

Having entered the market as a marine servicing company, Govender believes that Anchora Enterprises has built the platform from which to grow and diversify. He says that future plans will not detract from gains they have made in this sector and that further announcements will show their

determination to expand on their recent successes. During lockdown, working as an essential service provider, Anchora launched an obligation free connectivity service to enhance accessibility of communication to the South African seafaring community in partnership with KVH Industries. “We wanted to help bridge the information gaps between sea and shore with this unique VSAT offering that is cost effective, flexible and easily accessible,” explains Govender who confirms that they will be able to make a number of additional exciting announcements in the near future. Already BV Classification certified for NavCom equipment, Anchora is now pursuing further Class accreditations and has secured the funding to commence ISO certification for shipyards that will include ISO 9001, 45001 and 14001. While the pandemic has forced the company to focus on the local opportunities and market,

“Businesses need to be flexible; markets are constantly evolving and in addition to this, your success in moving forward should have a direct impact on industry requirements and benefit the maintenance of economic activity in your region.” Govender sees the continent as the ideal market for Anchora. They are already active in Angola and Mozambique where they represent Furuno interests. “Businesses need to be flexible; markets are constantly evolving and in addition to this, your success in moving forward should have a direct impact on industry requirements and benefit the maintenance of economic activity in your region,” he says. “Positioning Anchora Enterprises as an economic contributor remains a key objective for the team and will be achieved by enabling growth through job creation initiatives and supporting talent management within the industry,” Govender concludes.

Ship building, repair and maintenance

New markets and diversification help buoy future vision for ship repair

Chris Sparg, Managing Director of Dormac Marine and Engineering, reveals that only big changes and broader coverage will sustain long term growth for the marine engineering sector – and highlights how these strategies have been incorporated into the company’s vision in the post COVID-19 era.

ith ship repair work currently making up about 75 percent of their work, Sparg says that he sees both marine and industrial fabrication of new steel work becoming more important to the company’s bottom line as they pursue opportunities that exist on the continent and Middle East particularly within the oil and gas sector. “While ship repair has been the backbone of the company with floating repairs, fire damage, break downs, grounding damage and tailshaft repairs featuring, we have started to move more into the fabrication of new steel and already tendered on significant projects coming out of the gas projects in Mozambique,” he explains, adding that the focus will be on the fabrication of niche components. COVID-19 has, however, dampened current aspirations. Sparg confirms that at least two of the tenders coming out of Mozambique were awarded to Europe, and suspects that the inability for project managers from client

companies to travel over the last few months resulted in awards being made to facilitate access. In addition, the political unrest in Mozambique has also hindered progress as international drilling companies hold off on sending crews into the region due to safety concerns. Ship repair and maintenance remains a priority

The shift in focus to include fabrication, however, does not mean that the company intends to downscale or move away from their roots as a ship repairer. Sparg confirms that the oil and gas sector remains important to their repair aspirations as well, but notes that the nature of the projects has shifted from the massive rig contracts that used to be attracted to Cape Town to smaller more regular work that also includes periodic surveys. He foresees an opportunity to target maintenance work on board FPSO’s that are in the region on longer term contracts than drilling rigs. “These vessels are usually secured on multi-year contracts and there is an opportunity to supply riding parties to provide

maintenance services,” says Sparg, adding that Dormac is comfortable working within Africa and territories that may not be as attractive to European companies. But the focus extends beyond the continent and Sparg says that the UAE and Saudi Arabia offer opportunities for companies like Dormac and even new start-ups. He adds that Dormac is keen to engage as a technology partner with these companies as well as existing shipyards in Africa that may not have yet gained international accreditation or recognition. “There are many complexities associated with much of the repair work that needs to be undertaken and we are able to bring this expertise to companies seeking their own growth opportunities,” he says. Interestingly, Dormac recently secured a contract to complete repair work on the Sea Harvest vessel that sustained significant hull damage during a grounding incident. The vessel will be towed to Durban from Cape Town during November where she will be attended to in Dormac’s private floating dock. According to Sparg, the fishing sector remains an important source of work for ship repairers. “It is important that the country’s fishing fleet remains operational and well-maintained as they continue to provide a vital source of protein and food security,” he says. Investing in capacity

Dormac’s investment in a floating dock in the Port of Durban has seen the company able to continue to attract work into the port for ship repair work and Sparg confirms that the ability to use their own docking infrastructure has helped make the company a viable partner to shipowners and managers seeking urgent work. Investment of this calibre is difficult to justify, however, in a port environment that offers only short-term five-year leases. Further investment is, however, being made in more movable assets. “We have just purchased a 10m lathe from Johannesburg that

The vessel’s advanced survey equipment includes Multi-Beam and Single-Beam echo-sounders and Side-Scan Sonar and a Seabed Sampler to recover sample material from the sea-floor and underlying sub-strata for detailed analytical and testing purposes. The vessel capabilities allow for nearshore shallow water surveys in depths of up to 300m. A spokesperson of Veecraft Marine, stated: “Despite the operational challenges presented by the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, the successful delivery of the first in a fleet of Survey Motor Boats is a testament to the ingenuity and steadfast dedication of our team. This boat is the most advanced survey vessel currently in production globally. We are privileged to continue to support the South African Navy in pioneering the will eliminate the need to send machining up to Gauteng and even help attract work from elsewhere in the country,” he said, acknowledging that the lathe will be the largest available in Durban.

Also in August, Damen Shipyards Cape Town layed the keel for the second of three Multi-Mission Inshore Patrol Vessels (MMIPV) that they are building for the South African Navy’s Project BIRO. The MMIPVs draw on proven technology from Damen’s standardised range of patrol boats, but are tailored to the specific requirements of the South African Navy. Feauring Damen’s Sea Axe Bow – a vertical hull form that reduces slamming for safe, comfortable operations in rough seas - these vessels represent the first Sea Axe vessels to operate in South Africa. Speaking at the event, Chief of the Navy, Vice Admiral Hlongwane said; “A well-managed maritime sector is key to the country’s economic recovery from the pandemic. Fighting Covid-19 poses new dilemmas for South Africa in addition to the existing challenges of policing one of the largest maritime zones in Africa. South Africa must also fulfil numerous international safety responsibilities… any reduction in South Africa’s supply chain efficiency could wreak economic havoc on the country and its neighbours.” Held during lockdown period, the event to mark the keel-laying milestone included stringent Challenges still exist

Despite the gains made by the company and its proven resilience over this difficult period, Sparg emphasises that the challenges facing the sector relating to port infrastructure still exist. He believes that revisiting the idea to concession these facilities still makes sense for both the port authority and the industry. Despite still having to address the frustrations that existed a decade ago, Sparg believes that

Transforming the ship repair space to attract international work

As a Black-owned Level 1 B-BBEE ship repair company, Channel Marine and Trading (CMT) is working towards creating a platform for partnerships to encourage more Black ownership within the sector and the maritime industry as a whole.

“We want to create opportunities for the various companies to become more competitive, highly skilled, and efficient which will, in turn, allow South Africa to become more attractive as a ship repair destination to international vessels and clients,” Crian Dickson, Managing Director of CMT, told Maritime Review. With over 35 years of experience in the ship repair and building sector, the company works with a network of shipyards, agents, private companies and parastatals

throughout the country as well as a number of international clients. Based in Durban, CMT specialises in steel and pipe work and has worked on a number of ocean-going vessels including dredgers, tugs, offshore supply vessels and workboats. Caisson project The company was recently sub-contracted by Sandock Austral Shipyards to undertake the refurbishment and steel replacement on the East London Drydock caisson gate. The fivemonth project included the manufacture of a new cradle as well as significant fabrication and steel renewal work. “The cradle fabrication and fitments consisted of about 35 tonnes of steel,” says Dickson adding that, due to the configura-

tion of the caisson gate, the actual design had to be customised. A further 90 tonnes of steel was required for the refurbishment of the caisson gate that included the renewal of the weather decks, main decks and bulkheads. Dickson confirms that work was also undertaken to modify the existing straight decks to cambered decks. The refurbishment also included:

New entrance hatches in compliance to IACS recommendation

Renewal of shell plating between C-D compartments

Renewal of fender retaining bars Fitment of new handrailing Fitment of watertight doors and hatches New access manholes for ballast tanks

Having completed the caisson project during the months of lockdown, Dickson admits that COVID-19 has impacted the company. “It disrupted the flow of work and made it challenging to maintain schedules for clients,” he says adding that the requirements of social distancing and unforeseen costs associated with training and the purchase of personal protection equipment wear also meant that the company was not able to hire as many people for projects as usual. Future forward With future plans to invest in the establishment of an accredited training facility alongside his company, Dickson aims to help bridge the gap between schoolleavers and the demand for specialised skills in the sector. Dickson’s future vision also includes ambitions to diversify the company’s footprint into the petro chemical and industrial manufacturing sectors.

Construction of workboats underway in Cape Town

wo twin—screw, diesel powered workboats are under construction at Veecraft Marine’s Port of Cape Town-based premises due to be delivered in 2021 when they will take up service to spearhead harbour activities, including conventional escort, Light House Services (LHS) assistance and towing support in the port. Having been awarded the R86m tender against two other boatbuilders, the award was reportedly made on competitive pricing structures. With an 18-month build programme in place, Veecraft, a subsidiary of Paramount Maritime, will build the two boats simultaneously with the aim of scheduling delivery during 2021. The 100% South African-developed, 19.5m (LOA) maritime vessels, manufactured with 60% local content, will feature a 7.25m Beam, fixed-pitched propellers and twin rudders, offering 15T

bollard pull (short tons-force). The vessels will assist in servicing small to medium-sized craft pilotage into the port, the towing of vessels, lashing up next to dead ships and undertaking conventional escort operations. This additional capacity will have a direct and indirect impact crosssector on industries operating within and around notably one of the most demanding trade routes in the world, serving as a critical component of the value chain of fishing companies in particular. The entrance channels to the dry-docks at the Port of Cape Town have been historically, extremely confined, with workboats the only vessels capable of servicing the area. Over the course of the past few decades however, after years of service assisting up to 300+ foreign fishing vessels per annum, the existing vessels have suffered from fatigue, recurring breakdowns and require regular costly maintenance. In addition, the older vessels are causing increased air pollution due to outdated engine technology.

Re-opening of Mossel Bay slipway underpins its importance to the region

ollowing the re-opening of ship repair facilities during May, a steady flow of work at the Port of Mossel Bay’s ship repair facility created much-needed jobs in the region The slipway – which primarily serves the fishing industry – services an average of three vessels per month with a minimum duration of one week per vessel, creating on average 20 jobs per vessel. Notable occupation in May and June included the Luna Moon vessel, which docked for two months for repairs as well as the Cape Vidal vessel, which has been docked for two weeks. The facility was also booked for the repair of two vessels in July. Typical jobs created per repair include welders, painters, scaffolders and mechanical services. The continuous booking of the

Maritime Review Africa ISSUE TWO | 2020

facility by role players in the fishing industry plays a critical role towards job creation in Mossel Bay and South Africa as a whole. In the 2019/20 financial year, approximately 240 jobs were created for the benefit of Mossel Bay community members who are appropriately skilled as per the requirements of each vessel. Rehabiltation plans

Plans are also in the pipeline to rehabilitate the facility and almost triple its capacity within the next three years. Mossel Bay Port Manager, Shadrack Tshikalange, said: “At present, the facility handles 13 vessels with a weight of 200 tons per year. However, the rehabilitation earmarked under Operation Phakisa will see it being capable of handling more than 40 vessels per year with a maximum of 500 tons each in the next three years.”

“Once the current slipway facility has been rehabilitated and upgraded, and safety and efficiency have been improved, more and bigger vessels will be attracted back to the port, which will generate better revenue streams for the port and create more jobs and grow the economy for the region,” he added. Tshikalange added, “The slipway is of significant importance for the region because the Port of Mossel Bay is historically known as a fishing port. Players like Seavuna, Viking Fishing, Afro Fishing and smaller fishermen from local communities help to create sustainable jobs within the port for the Mossel Bay community.” In addition, smaller vessels from St Francis Bay including fibre glass vessels from the Chokka Industry use the slipway on a regular basis. “It is important to note that the port itself also depends on the slipway from a marine perspective. Where engineering and external hull repair services are required for the port’s Artic Tern workboat and the Snipe launch boat, the

Ship building, repair and maintenance port makes use of specialised external service providers in order to ensure that we contribute towards the creation of jobs in our region.

Accredited to provide safety equipment servicing and inspection

n a long-awaited deal, Cape Town-based NovaMarine, was recently approved as an accredited service partner for CSM safety equipment – joining their global service network of 200 international stations. “The NovaMarine sales and operations team have been working relentlessly for the last three years to land this partnership. CSM survival equipment is internationally renowned and we need to partner with these brands to be able to better serve our customer’s needs. Our customer service model

Adding hull cleaning and blasting to the menu

ollowing a significant investment in equipment and training, Hesper Engineering has now added hull cleaning and blasting to their already extensive list of service offerings within the ship repair and maintenance sector.

According to Mark James, blasting specialist at Hesper, the decision to offer the new services in-house is a natural progression towards their ambitions of offering a one-stop-shop to vessels in need of services and maintenance. “We have already had a number of enquiries and the business is certainly picking up,” he reports adding that, with an initial focus on local fleets due to the impact of COVID-19, there is already interest from international vessels. “We have had positive feedback from clients who we have a proven track record with,” he adds referring to the long history that the company enjoys in the marine engineering sector. “We can offer competitive pricing, quality and a quick turnaround that

revolves around service delivery and relationship-building and we look forward to nurturing this partnership with CSM,” commented Marcus Twine, CEO of NovaMarine. Barbra Pieters, Sales & Service Co-ordinator for NovaMarine adds, “We have always been determined to get the CSM agency back and it finally paid off. Our team is excited, and we look forward to dealing with our old clients and assisting them with their servicing and replacements.” NovaMarine have since already received an order for the servicing of five life rafts, just days after the approval.

gives us a competitive edge over our competitors,” he confirms. Facilities With a fully equipped blasting and coating booth on their premises in Paarden Island, Hesper Engineering has the capacity to blast and prime all valves, pumps, plates, pipes and gusset plates under controlled and safe conditions. “Training has been ongoing, and we comply with all the requirements stipulated by the paint manufacturers. In addition, our facilities can accommodate large trucks to allow for smooth dispatch and delivery of steel,” he adds. Full service offering James emphasises the comprehensive list of service options associated with the new offering. From hull cleaning and blasting in the drydock to bilge cleaning, deck cleaning and tank pumping and cleaning – the company is equipped to deliver both workshop and in-situ services. He adds that they can also provide “men on the move” teams for emergency work to join vessels in the Port of Saldanha Bay, Ngqura and Mossel Bay.

NovaMarine currently operates around the ports of Cape Town and Durban and their technicians are multi-skilled to perform offshore inspection, servicing and maintenance 24/7 on marine safety equipment. Shanghai Star Rubber Products Co. Ltd is the specialised manufacturer of the CSM brand of marine inflatable life rafts and inflatable are non-inflatable rubber products. All products are complaint with ISO 9001:2008 and the products have been approved by classification societies such as ABS, CCS, DNV-GL, LR, NK, RS and Rina. While the national lockdown affected virtually all industry sectors due to the COVID-19 pandemic, NovaMarine was earmarked as an essential services provider during this time and even extended their service offering to include a sanitizing service for vessels. In addition, NovaMarine has recently received its South African National Accreditation System (SANAS) Certification for Inspection of Transportable, Refillable Gas Containers. This also includes approval as a high-pressure test station for testing of CO2 cylinders. Pieters adds, “NovaMarine is an internationally known and trusted brand when it comes to marine safety and we need to be dynamic by changing or adding services which will address our client’s needs. Our service technicians are multi-skilled and have a great amount of experience in their line of work to ensure your safety equipment is inspected, regularly serviced, well-maintained and fit for use in case of emergency”. As CEO of both NovaMarine and ship repair and fabrication company Hesper Engineering, Twine comments, “We have made quite a few strategic internal changes within both companies in the last two years in a bid to align ourselves with the marine industry’s needs. We have now found a synergy between the two brands which is starting to pay off.” NovaMarine is owned by Sturrock Grindrod Maritime (SGM) and along with its sister company Hesper Engineering, make up the SGM Technical Division within Grindrod Ltd. SGM Technical offers solutions ranging from marine safety equipment and maintenance, to steel/pipe fabrication, mechanical repairs as well as blasting and coating services.

Responding to clients’ needs during COVID-19 restrictions

ike many service providers, SMD Africa Marine found themselves adopting strategic thinking to meet the needs of their clients who required technicians to attend to vessels that were outside of the country during the COVID-19 lockdown period that restricted movement during this time.

With access to a team in Namibia, SMD was able to effectively respond to the needs of a client who required an urgent service in Angola at the beginning of South Africa’s lockdown period. Technician, Edson Almeida, agreed to book a one-way ticket to Luanda – effectively leaving Namibia with no real indication of when he would be able to return. Following the completion of the job, Almeida found himself unable to return home and was forced to wait until the vessel set sail for Namibia to undertake further repairs.

Only back a month, Almeida was once again tasked with travelling to Angola on behalf of a client. Due to an increasingly stringent travel regime, however, the client agrees to charter a one-way flight to Luanda. Joined by colleague, Christian Mostert, the two technicians have to spend several days in self-quarantine before they can undertake the work. Commenting on the SMD team’s commitment to continue to service their client base during these difficult times, Managing Director, Andile Dhlomo says; “We are fortunate to have a dedicated team that is willing to go above and beyond to add value to our clients. The above example of our Namibian team is but one such display. “What goes untold is the behind the scenes serving that happens internally to ensure this successful service delivery to our clients. Indeed, service is the foundation of all successful organisations. Service is therefore truly the foundation of all successful organisations and the one who serves truly leads,” he adds.

Nigeria plans to ramp up ship repair facilities to service oil and gas sector

igeria’s Federal Government is undertaking a study to determine the feasibility of constructing a shipyard to cater for the maintenance and repair services of cargo vessels, oil tankers, and LNG carriers. The yard is likely to be located in Brass Island, Bayelsa State and the study is being funded by the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB). The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Chief Timipre chaired the project’s kick-off meeting recently and stated that it would be executed by China Harbour Engineering Company, which has carried out similar projects across the globe as well as in Nigeria. The scope of the feasibility study includes geotechnical and bathymetric surveys; conducting a market study; ascertaining an optimal construction scale; developing technical proposal and construction plan and estimation of the required investment to bring the project into reality. According to the Minister, the

Dwelling on the prospects of the shipyard project, Sylva hinted that the Nigeria LNG’s Train 7 project is expected to increase the company’s Liquefied Natural Gas capacity from 22MTPA to 30MTPA and induce the acquisition of additional LNG carriers, all of which would need maintenance and servicing.

tion and operation of the shipyard would create employment opportunities and contribute to the reduction of poverty. In his presentation, the Executive Secretary of NCDMB, Engr. Simbi Kesiye Wabote assured that the Brass shipyard project and other ongoing efforts to catalyse manufacturing would help the Board achieve the target of 70 percent Nigerian Content by 2027. He confirmed that the project was being driven by the NCDMB in conjunction with NLNG as a Capacity Development Initiative (CDI) on the back of the Train 7 Project. Wabote further explained that “there are over 20,000 ships working for the oil and gas sector in Nigerian waters and the annual spend was over $600 million in the upstream sector.” Providing more statistics, the Executive Secretary stated that the oil sector spent $3.047bn on marine vessels between year 2014-2018 and 73 percent of the total spend went to crew boats, security vessels, diving support vessels and fast supply intervention vessels. Other vessels in that category include mooring launch and shallow draft vessels, he said. He admitted that most of the vessels that operate in the oil industry are taken to Ghana, Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon and other countries for drydocking due to the lack of suitable facilities in the country. The Executive Secretary also listed the objectives of NCDMB’s Marine Vessel Strategy to include promotion of indigenous ownership, increase participation and increase capacity of local shipyards to build, service and maintain marine vessels of various sizes and manufacturing of vessel components and consumables in-country Other objectives of the Marine Strategy are to give first consideration to Nigerian built or owned vessels for contract award and job offers, discourage capital flight, generate employment and increase retention of Industry spends and stimulate value creation. The project’s aggressive schedule indicates that the feasibility study and site work could be executed before the end of the year.

INNOVATION

Tech innovations are key to South Africa’s maritime security To maintain the benefits of new technology, shrinking maritime capabilities and budget cuts need to be overcome. South Africa is building and using sophisticated technology to combat maritime crimes and make its notoriously treacherous oceans safer for seafarers. A new Institute for Security Studies (ISS) report shows how a variety of measures are being implemented to improve the country’s overall Maritime Domain Awareness.

outh Africa’s location at the meeting point of the Atlantic and Indian oceans and astride the globally important Cape shipping route, means that thousands of vessels constantly approach, transit or depart the country’s maritime domain. While most are innocently going about their business, some are involved in illegal fishing, poaching, smuggling and trafficking, and could pose a security threat if allowed to proceed. The country’s approach allows authorities such as the South African Navy and the Department of Environment, Forestry and Fisheries to remotely track and determine whether to intercept suspicious targets. It can help identify patterns of criminal behaviour at sea, highlighting areas where illegal activities are most likely to occur and compiling a database of culprits to monitor and take action. Integrated Vessel Tracking technology is key to dealing with both the sheer number of vessels at sea, and the fact that some switch off the location transponders they’re legally obligated to carry. Location and identity data acquired from radar imagery, observations by coast watchers, patrol vessels and ship transponder signals picked up by satellites are fused with intelligence into a common operating picture.

Integrated Vessel Tracking technology is key to dealing with both the sheer number of vessels at sea, and the fact that some switch off the location transponders they’re legally obligated to carry.

Thousands of vessels constantly approach, transit or depart South Africa’s maritime domain Some of the vessel tracking technologies, such as Synthetic Aperture Radar, are stripping away the cloak that night and cloudy conditions provide to conceal suspicious vessels and crimes. This type of radar generates images of the sea no matter the weather or time, allowing the detection of so-called dark targets – vessels that illegally switch off their transponders. Suspicious ships are identified and tracked, and analysts determine the risk they pose if left unattended. Automatic alerts are issued when a vessel enters a restricted zone or exhibits behaviour that could indicate criminal activity, such as transhipment of illegally caught fish between two vessels, at night and on the High Seas. However South Africa faces two major problems regarding this kind of enhanced surveillance. First, the country’s maritime security capabilities are likely to shrink over the next couple of years, which will make it difficult to provide a constant and robust presence throughout its maritime area of jurisdiction. For example the South African Navy has warned that it could lose some of its core capabilities from 2022 to 2023. By this time, it will lack the resources to adequately repair and maintain all its vessels, especially its submarines and frigates. While it expects to buy three new inshore patrol vessels by the end of 2023 to replace its antiquated offshore patrol vessels, these will be insufficient for the tasks required.

Synthetic Aperture Radar lifts the cloak that night and clouds provide to suspicious vessels and crimes. The inshore vessels are designed for coastal tasks such as inspections of small vessels, and won’t be able to undertake some of the sustained offshore operations that larger, offshore vessels provide. Also these might be the last vessels it receives for a while, as it will be unable to afford new capital acquisitions while the economy is in recession. South Africa will also have to increasingly rely on technological innovations in surveillance and analysis. This is because its air force lacks maritime patrol aircraft, and the defence minister stated in 2019 (before COVID-19 and the recession) that no replacement aircraft would be purchased. The second challenge for the country relates to budget cuts beyond the maritime security arena. The most likely economic consequence of COVID-19 will be reduced funds for operational expenditure across the whole of government. Currently over 25 South African government departments and agencies are involved in maritime and ocean governance. They will all now be under pressure to demonstrate value for money and how they’re streamlining their efforts. This means that cooperation and coordination will be vital. Departments with a maritime mandate will be expected to do as much, if not more, with fewer resources.

Departments with a maritime mandate will be expected to do as much, if not more, with fewer resources The ISS report suggests South Africa’s government can alleviate some of these difficulties by establishing a National Maritime Information Centre under its future National Maritime Security Strategy. The strategy has taken shape throughout 2020, but the country cannot afford for it to be further delayed. (cont - pg 36) Maritime Review Africa ISSUE TWO | 2020

Moving with the times

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 35 Tech innovations are key to South Africa’s maritime security The centre would improve coordination and information sharing through joint risk analysis and decision making. While such a centre is meant to be established under the new Border Management Authority, a dedicated maritime centre is still needed, as the border authority will probably focus on land and air ports of entry not sea borders. The strategy should also outline how available maritime security capabilities will be coordinated and eventually integrated into one operational centre. A framework will be needed for using existing patrol and surveillance resources that are currently dispersed among various government departments. The Southern African Development Community (SADC) Integrated Maritime Security Strategy currently being finalised provides a valuable opportunity to reignite discussions of both a SADC information sharing centre and joint maritime security operations among member states. Improving national and regional cooperation is key to unlocking the benefits of effective maritime awareness, and is the next step to improving South Africa’s security at sea. Now, more than ever, governments should collaborate at regional and international levels. South Africa’s initial achievements are a good baseline for further developing its awareness capabilities and those of its partners in the interest of global maritime security.

Innovation campus aims to bolster IDZ and solve maritime challenges The Saldanha Bay Industrial Development Zone (SBIDZ)recently announced plans to establish an Innovation Campus within the precinct of the IDZ in an effort to solve some of the challenging problems within the marine and energy sectors. “Global markets are shifting and with the global pandemic, new ways and new ideas of marine engineering and services must be found. The Innovation Campus space has been created to bring these new ideas to market and to respond to shifting global and market trends affecting business and society,” says Kaashifah Beukes, Chief Executive Officer of the SBIDZ. The Campus will involve more than just the tenants of the SBIDZ and will include other industry players, academia, the public sector and communities in the sharing of knowledge. The aim is to create new knowledge and generate entrepreneurial activity, build capacity and support and drive a sustainable innovation process in the region. “The Innovation Campus will support innovation, research and development through a programme of incubation and acceleration of entrepreneurs to help build and drive the next generation and create new technologies that will sustain maritime sector of the future,” says Davis cook, CEO of RIIS. According to Beukes, the Campus will help bolster Saldanha Bay’s goal of becoming an internationally respected and reputed centre of technological and engineering

excellence. “Our vision is that it becomes the home of the best energy and maritime research and development in Africa,” she says adding that partners are welcome to become involved. “Some of our investors will come up with novel and pioneering concepts which will bring solutions to the market. These could be tried and tested with our partners and specialists located within the Saldanha Bay IDZ innovation campus,” says Benedicta Durcan, Executive Ease of Doing Business. Starting small

For the moment, however, the Campus is concentrating on targeting nine high schools in the area and training maths teachers. According to Beuke’s this will be followed up with an emphasis on the science curriculum in the new year. She admits, however, that the COVID-19 pandemic has provided additional challenges in delivering on their plans as many schools face connectivity problems. Looking ahead, they hope to attract Corporate Social Investment funds to help them continue to deliver on the school programme. “In order to fulfil our mandate, we must advance local maritime and research development capabilities and assist with the systematic integration of the people of Saldanha Bay to grow the innovation ecosystem,” says Patrick Lakabane, Executive development Programmes at the SBIDZ.

Celebrating 75 years of innovation Africa’s leading research, development and innovation organisation, the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), reached a major milestone in October 2020 as they marked 75 years of innovation. Established in 1945, the CSIR has, for seven and a half decades, dedicated its resources to improving the quality of life of South Africans through ground-breaking research, development and innovation.

The organisation’s mandate has remained the intrinsic guiding force over the years, with the focus having been refined to respond to the global and local context. A refined focus resulted in, for example, the spin out of a number of institutions and the establishment of science councils, such as the South African Bureau of Standards, National Research Foundation, National Metrology Institute of South Africa, and the Human Sciences Research Council. The CSIR is no stranger to the maritime sector and provided a collaborated on a number of innovations. Among the innovations that have come out of the CSIR campus in Pretoria are acoustic cameras to detect underwater threats, the use of unmanned aircraft in the maritime environment, a davit system to launch reaction vessels from large moving ships and technology to monitor maritime operations.

CMEO

Marine engineering officer for East London overcomes challenges in a man’s world

ppointed in April this year, the new Chief Marine Engineer Officer (CMEO) for the Port of East London says that working her way up in a male-dominated industry has not always been smooth sailing, but it has made her more determined to succeed. In her new position, the 37-year old, Khayakazi ‘Pinky’ Somzana, is responsible for the safe and efficient operation of all machinery and engineering functions on tugboats, which includes watch keeping, repair and maintenance. Somzana says she has always been inspired by her late father who she remembers as constantly taking apart and fixing items in their home. In 2002, with N1 – N4 electrical engineering qualifications under her belt, Somzana joined TNPA as an apprentice Millwright. “When I joined the company, it was not easy at first since there were no females in the industry at that time, it was only men. I used to feel so small when qualified Millwrights would send me to fetch a spanner and when I came back, the job would already be done. “But I eventually I got used to that and gained the experience I wanted. In order to achieve the training despite their attitude, I had to work hard and be dedi-

Maritime Review Africa ISSUE TWO | 2020

cated to my job. When they would give me tasks to do on my own, I made sure I accomplished them and that’s how I gained their trust and succeeded,” Somzana said. In 2005, Somzana qualified as a Millwright and then went on to serve as a Trainee Marine Engineer Officer at the Port of East London to gain more experience. Five years later, Somzana’s hard work paid off, when she received a bursary to pursue Maritime Studies at the Durban University of Technology to qualify as a Marine Engineer. Later that year, she embarked on a 12-month-long cadetship training period onboard a sea-going vessel. “Joining a vessel was not as nice as one would think. It was my first time being that far away from my family, with people of different cultures, and being the only woman onboard. I had sleepless nights at times as the sea would be rough and the ship rolls while you are sleeping. We would be called at midnight for manoeuvring or watchkeeping. The training itself was also challenging, as I only had theory in mind.” Somzana completed her Maritime Studies S3 at Cape Peninsula University of Technology in 2018, which allowed her to work fulltime as a Second Engineer on the Port of East London’s tugs. Last year, the mother of one was able

to take the final step in her career journey, obtaining a South African Maritime Safety Authority Certificate of Competency as a CMEO Port Operations. “I received my qualification on my birthday, 3 October. It was the best gift I ever had, even though it did not come easy,” she said. Despite her experiences during her early days on the job, Somzana is thankful for the hard lessons and to the supportive male colleagues who encouraged her accomplishments. “I am so thankful to TNPA for believing in me. Without the company’s assistance and my colleagues I wouldn’t be here – especially CMEO Andre Breede, Aubrey Tibane - my former Marine Technical Manager who made sure that I got the best training, as well as my line manager, Marine Operations Manager Mzukisi Nqwata and Dock Master Shawn Coetzer, who were always willing to assist me,” she said. “To everyone out there who has a goal to achieve, I would like to say, never give up on wanting to reach a goal. Pray and work hard, nothing comes easy, it takes time but it happens in God’s timing. My career story looks like I jumped from one point to where I am today, but I can tell you that it was not smooth at all.”

Seasoned engineer aims to mentor young artisans

t age 63, Andren William Meyer is at the peak of his career having recently fulfilled his lifelong dream of qualifying as a constituent assessor. Meyer has been employed by Transnet National Ports Authority since 2008 and currently holds the position of Millwright Multiple Trade, a job that requires him to design structures and ensure safety within vessels. His wealth of experience and newly achieved qualification places him in the ideal position to mentor aspirant tradesmen. “There is a big shortage of artisans in South Africa and I am willing to do the workplace assessments on learners and semiskilled artisans for them to qualify and become skilled professionals,” he said, with specific reference to the communities of Saldanha and Vredenburg. Meyer understands the importance of nurturing the youth, not only because of the dire need in the industry, but because of his own experiences as a youngster from a humble background. “I was born in Cape Town and grew up on the West Coast. In 1974 I had to leave high school at Paulus Joubert in Paarl due to financial constraints,” he said.

“My circumstances growing up and leaving school at an early stage, made me more determined and passionate about education. I have always had a passion for engineering and my desire was always to become an assessor in engineering.” Meyer’s qualifications include – Fitter and Turner red seal, Boiler maker/ Welder Red seal, Pneumatic Fitter Red seal and Millright Multiple Red seal. Prior to joining TNPA, he worked in ship loading and sailed as a chief engineer on foreign-going vessels. Professionalism and commitment to his job guide Meyer in the day-to-day workings of port life. “I believe in adhering to company policies at all times and I try to keep up with the technological advancements in our industry. It can be challenging but I really enjoy it.

Drawing on a broad range of experiences freelance boat designer, Barry Broadbent of Backstay Design, is inspired by the ethos of entrepreneurship and problem solving that is inherent on the African continent. He spoke to Maritime Review about his experiences, ambitions and challenges.

aving entered the design space as a sculptor, he says that his training and experience in this medium has equipped him with two sets of three-dimensional problem-solving skills: the practical and the conceptual. “I have used these skills in a number of different areas, from working as an artist, to working with composites, to designing in 3D CAD,” he says. It is immediately evident that the young designer, who went solo just over a year ago, is comfortable exploring both established as well as alternative design software that he believes amplifies the scope he delivers to his clients “In all honesty, to some degree, I decided to freelance due to the frustration at having to use systems and software that I felt were not suited to me and

hampering me in achieving the level of design that I am capable of,” he adds. “Software is something that I can speak about all day!” he says adding that he uses both Autodesk Inventor as well as Autodesk Fusion 360 as established tools of the trade, but includes two freeware programs in his repertoire. “Marcus Bole has developed an excellent and free hydrostatics package called PolyCad that I use for displacement and L/V CG calculations – and have recently started using Blender which is another free program,” he says explaining that the updated version of Blender that was released last year is very powerful. “I am extremely impressed with the results that I am achieving.” But it is the migration to 3D CAD that has him most excited. “I am

seeing first hand how the industry is moving to 3D CAD,” he says describing some of the experience he has had in generating three dimensional structural models. “Interestingly, I recently learned that Class is looking into giving approval to a new design by working straight off the 3D model. The standard up until now has only been (to approve based on) 2D structural drawings,” he adds.

Early experience

With a BTech Fine Art and a final year project focused on wind turbine blades that exposed him to engineering design, Broadbent then spent several years in the composites industry that included a year repairing and refitting yachts at the Algoa Bay Yacht Club in Port Elizabeth. “I then got into 3D CAD and was initially hired as a designer for the Tag Yachts in St Francis Bay where I was tasked with designing all the plugs for the Tag 50. Later I was contracted to a construction site on an iron ore mine in Sierra Leonne which provided invaluable experience that I continue to draw

People at work on today.” Broadbent gained further marine experience from two years at Legacy Marine in Port Elizabeth where he was tasked with supplementary design and factory drawings for dive support vessels for the oil and gas sector. He also worked on the redesign of a small boat range. Moving to Cape Town, he joined Icarus Marine where he worked on the design of a 14 m ocean research vessel, producing drawing packs and cut files. Going solo

Working in a space where most designers are either employed inhouse or as sub-contractors to one boat builder, he admits that freelancing can be daunting. “It can be challenging to find new customers. While in my own mind I have all the skills and experience a customer needs, I find it challenging to get through to them that they can trust me to deliver good design work on time,” he says. But he says he has been pleasantly surprised to find that every client that he has worked with has become a repeat customer. As such, he has no intention of giving up his freelance gig. “My aim is to build long-term relationships with the right customers. Working as a freelancer allows me to focus more of my resources on design, both in terms of quality and productivity.” Enjoying the challenge of concept design and rendering, Broadbent is currently working on a couple of proposals in collaboration with a UK-based naval architect. “My goal would be to take one of these concepts all the way through to the factory drawings,” he says. Customisation

He’s also keen for a challenge. Having had the opportunity to work on customised items such as lockable, flush engine room hatches, he says he would welcome the prospect to problem-solve some difficult design problems for new customers. Broadbent recalls the importance of being able to create customised components for a vessel while he was working at a boatyard. “While the structural design of a vessel may be undertaken elsewhere; the smaller non-structural

details are left up to the yard to complete as they see fit,” he says. Explaining further, Broadbent says that a client may place more significance on certain items that are critical to their specific operations. Citing an example of a dive ladder for a dive support vessel, he says; “While this may appear to be a small item, if their dive ladder breaks they have to pull up for the day and return to port, and cannot bill the client for any further work that day. “What all of these custom jobs share is that they always crop up after the initial structural design, and the challenge is to work around the existing structure without compromising it. “The goal is always to find the simplest solution while still fulfilling the client’s brief,” he says admitting that this often requires supplying multiple proposal options as well as revisions to get it right.

And I have had a few instances where I have provided solutions in a way that the engineers could not,” he says.

Youth programme aims to provide opportunities for engineering apprentices

he National Employers Association of South Africa (NEASA) announced in October that they had partnered with a technical training provider to offer qualifying employers the opportunity to host apprentices, who have successfully completed the theory component of their qualification, in order to gain the relevant and suitable workplace exposure and to apply theoretical and practical competencies within a real-life work environment. The programme is open to students from trade categories including electricians, millwrights, fitter and turners, toolmakers, welders and diesel mechanics. The apprenticeship programme gives companies access to additional entry-level labour at minimum cost to the employer who can also benefit by claiming an Employment Tax Incentive. Employers are able to interview suitable students with the view to selecting and appointing the bestsuited candidate. The NEASA Youth Programme also provides a number of services to the employer including:

Recruitment and matching of suitable

interns with the employer according to the

employers’ needs and logistic requirements;

Assisting with the scheduling of learner interviews;

Guiding and assisting with apprenticeship contract documents, student leave and wage negotiations;

Guiding and assisting the employer with mentor registration and workplace approval with their relevant SETA;

Provision of a “tool list” for the different trades;

Assisting the students with logbooks and scheduling of trade test dates;

Attending to any industrial relations and labour law matters during the apprenticeship;

Site visits to include student support services and host employer liaison services; and

Assisting with formal placement once the student has qualified. Fees and salaries

Apprentices’ salaries vary between R6,500 and R8,000 per month. The employer will pay the salary directly to the apprentice. The admin cost/services fee (for services listed above) for the host employer to participate in this initiative is R1,850.00 (excl. VAT) per apprentice, per month for the contracted duration of the apprenticeship.

VALUATORS Leveraging the value of your vessel assets

btaining an accurate understanding of the value of your sea-going asset is important whether you are interested in selling or simply aiming to acquire sufficient insurance cover. Equally, as a buyer, it is just as important to seek an accurate valuation of any vessel on your radar. Maritime Review spoke to David Abromowitz and Rob Sharp of Abromowitz, Sharp and Associates about the intricacies involved in obtaining an unbiased value. The duo at the head of Abromowitz, Sharp and Associates (ASA) are stalwarts of the South African leisure marine scene having gained extensive experience and knowledge in marine components, boat building, sailing, administration and marinas over many decades. As importers and distributors of Princess Yachts and Benetau as well as yacht brokers in the second-hand market, the company and its team understand the importance of accurate valuations that provide peace of mind for their clients. “Accurate valuations are essential when matching buyers with new or pre-owned vessels,” says Sharp who adds that a number of factors need to be taken into account when assessing a vessel. “These include the overall integrity of the boat, the layout and the general condition of the vessel,” agrees Abromowitz who founded the company in 1995. “In the event of the requirement of equipment needing to be replaced onboard the vessel to make it seaworthy or a “going concern” the costs of the replace-

ment equipment is factored into or out of the valuation,” he explains further. Both agree, however, that it is advisable to undertake all anticipated cosmetic or structural maintenance as well as equipment replacement prior to the evaluation to provide a more precise understanding of the value. Working with both buyers and sellers, Abromowitz and Sharp emphasise the importance of providing and unbiased valuation that is based on the condition of the vessel as well as the prevailing market and the urgency of sale required. They also highlight when proper valuations become important and list a number of scenarios including:

For insurance cover or re-insur-

ance purposes. Prior to the sale of a vessel to ensure timeous sale. Financing of the vessel either for new purchase or a loan against the vessel for draw downs by the owner of the vessel. Ongoing (repeat) valuing of the vessel which has been used as collateral against abovementioned loans. Asset management purposes. During a divorce / termination of partnership. During liquidation procedures.

Ultimately a professional valuation provides peace of mind. It ensures that your asset is correctly appraised; that your information is up-to-date and that you have the ability to leverage the value of your asset when you need to whatever the need.

“Accurate valuations are essential when matching buyers with new or pre-owned vessels.”

Promoting people in the port sector

ighlighting the numerous opportunities that exist within the port sector, Transnet National Ports Authority, introduces us to 27-year-old Talita Pillay and 30-year-old Ziphozethu from the Port of Mossel Bay. A Civil Engineer, Pillay, gained a whole new perspective of the maritime industry after she was awarded a Transnet bursary. She is enrolled in the Engineerin-Training programme to gain experiential learning for graduates with a degree in Engineering. The aim is to ultimately be able to deploy participants as full-time employees within the port system. Initially afraid of the ocean, Pillay says that after spending time in Mossel Bay since 2015, she has come to love the industry. I would recommend other youth to pursue a career in maritime because it is challenging yet an awesome experience to learn about how we develop and maintain assets in the ocean,” she says.

People at work As a civil engineer, Pillay’s responsibilities include taking care of the port planning portfolio, capital projects, and port maintenance. At the time of her appointment in 2016, Marine Engineering Officer, Ziphozethu Khumalo was on the youngest black women employed at the port’s Marine Department. She holds a National Diploma in Mechanical Engineering from the Mangosuthu University of Technology and through a cadetship bursary from Transnet, she obtained a Class 3 Certificate of Competency. “I am responsible for maintaining and operating all machinery and equipment onboard all types of pilot or workboats and ensuring the safety and efficiency of engineering functions at the port,” says Khumalo. “Perseverance and dedication are what you need in order to pursue a career in this industry. With them, you can conquer any challenge you might come across.” While these young professionals

are just a few of the numerous success stories, Port of Mossel Bay HR Manager, Sikhulule Malghas said TNPA is committed to developing many more youth. “As an agency of the state, TNPA has a responsibility to provide proper skills development programmes, develop technical skills, train artisans and develop engineers to ensure the sustainability of its ports and to stimulate growth of the marine economy,” she said The organisation also runs several programmes including a bursary scheme, Learnerships and an ‘adopted schools’ programme that fosters the development of maths and science in learners from historically disadvantaged primary and high schools, with a view of creating a pipeline of students that qualify for tertiary education for careers in the maritime and engineering fields.

Global Mercy

A new build with an African missio

The modern, stateof-the-art hospital ship is equipped with six surgical operating rooms. She will also provide a specialised training platform for African surgeons, obstetricians, dentists and anaesthesiologists, including a simulation laboratory for surgical and postoperative care.

orking with Deltamarin to develop the concept design of the new vessel, Stena RoRo won the overall contract to manage the actual construction of the hospital ship in 2014. Stena RoRo has been responsible for the design, the contracting, and the construction oversight of the complex vessel which is being built at the Tianjin Xingang shipyard in northern China. In addition to the Chinese shipyard the project includes several European, American, and Asian subcontractors. Both the hull design as well as the vessel’s interior cater for the specific requirements associated with hospital operations. In addition, the ventilation system has been especially adapted and focus has been placed on minimising vibration and noise. Global Mercy will also be equipped with cranes for taking on containers with provisions, vehicles and other equipment needed for long periods in port. Certified as a passenger ship for long international voyages, the Global Mercy will fly the Malta Flag with Lloyd’s Register certification. The modern, state-of-the-art hospital ship is equipped with six surgical operating rooms. She will also provide a specialised training platform for African surgeons, obstetricians, dentists and anaesthesiologists, including a simulation laboratory for surgical and post-operative care. The vessel is scheduled for completion in the first quarter of 2021 but will take up service in the latter part of the year. The 174m, 37,000 ship is a tailored RoPax-class ferry. What would normally serve as a car deck has been transformed into the six operating rooms and hospital wards. “We have applied one of our

concepts on a ship from the RoPaxclass, which are passenger and freighter vessels for international voyages, and modified her into a pure passenger ship with hospital capabilities,” said Per Westling, CEO of Stena RoRo AB. “The ship will have space for about 950 persons with everything needed for both patients and those who work on board, including grade schools and nursery schools for the children of staff.” When considering the hull coating for the Global Mercy, Stena RoRo selected an antifouling coating containing Selektope® that would protect the hull from hard fouling during extensive static periods. In support of the charity’s vital work, I-Tech AB has donated the required volumes of Selektope® to Mercy Ships. For any ship spending time at anchor for extended periods, the risk of barnacle colonisation on the hull is very high. The nature of the voluntary aid Mercy Ships provides means that its hospital ships are often stationary in port for up to 10 months. Therefore, barnacle fouling could be a costly nuisance for Mercy Ships, both due to increased fuel costs when the hospital ship is sailing between ports due to increased frictional resistance on the hull, in addition to costs associated with drydocking the ship to mechanically remove hard fouling, if required. Selektope® is an active agent ingredient added to marine coatings in nano-molar concentrations) that is characterised by its bio-repellent mode of action which keeps a ship’s hull free from barnacles, with non-fatal effect on the target organism. When released from surface of the hull, the organic, non-metal compound temporarily

activates the swimming behaviour of barnacle larvae, making it impossible for them to settle on the hull and transform into the calcareous adult stage of their lifecycle. Connectivity boosts medical interventions The Global Mercy will further benefit from connectivity solutions provided by SES Networks that will boost diagnostics and treatment on board for its patients. The high-performance connectivity services will enable the Global Mercy to fully implement remote viewing for a compact digital scope and CT scanner that enables specialist pathologists to remotely diagnose a raft of complex, life threatening, or deadly diseases on board. Mercy Ships will also leverage the connectivity to expand services and leave local communities with sustainable skills to care for their

Every year, 16.9 million people around the world die due to lack of access to surgical care and 93% of sub-Saharan Africa still lack this access. Between 1990 and 2020, Mercy Ships has performed more than 100,000 free surgical procedures, trained more than 40,000 medical professionals, renovated more than 100 health facilities, and implemented more than 1,000 community projects in Africa. The Global Mercy will more than double the impact of Mercy Ships on the African continent.

South African company cleans up on hospital ship own. The Global Mercy medical staff will have the possibility to run live HD video training sessions from the operating room on board to deliver unparalleled medical training and support. Dave Shwadlenak, Vice President of Information Services at Mercy Ships said, “By increasing our connectivity by 10-fold, we will have access to multiple gigabits of capacity, low latency and a lot more flexibility. SES Networks is fundamentally changing the level of services we offer and the legacy of sustainable healthcare we can establish before the Global Mercy departs. Thanks to SES Networks we have been able to expand the life-transforming surgeries and medical care that we can provide, and I’m looking forward to seeing the difference it will be making to hundreds of people’s lives.”

Since July 2018, teams from Enviro Health Solutions (EHS) have been providing pest control treatment to the Africa Mercy. The ongoing contract has seen EHS SPECIFICATIONS team members join the vessel at a number of African ports to ensure that the ship is kept clean, hygienic and Length: 174m bug free.
