PROPULSION
SYSTEMS

Propulsion systems
A key design goal of any Rolls-Royce system is to ensure it is
matched to the individual vessel profile. There are many trade-
offs to be considered in arriving at the optimum propulsion
system solution. What is the top priority for the shipowner? Is
it speed, fuel consumption or through life costs, and what is
the expected life of the vessel? These and many other factors
impact on the investment decision and the value it represents.

As Rolls-Royce has such a wide range of Bergen and MTU


engines and propulsion products they can be packaged into
systems that accommodate most customer preferences, and
are then tailored to the exact user requirements. These systems
can then be inserted into our own or other ship designs to
speed up the design and build process. This leaves the Naval
Architect free to concentrate on the all import look and
operation of the ship.

DIESEL AND GAS ENGINES

Diesel and gas engines


Rolls-Royce, with the MTU and Bergen diesel engine ranges is
a leading designer and developer of high and medium speed
diesels, gas engines and generator sets. Since 1946 we have
developed and installed thousands of units, meeting the
requirements of ship owners and land-based installations for
robust, reliable and economical power. In the 1980s we developed
our lean burn combustion system and applied it to engines
using various types of gas as fuel. This has been further refined
on our latest gas engines, providing leading thermal efficiencies
with high power density and low emissions.

As the marine industry is increasingly turning towards burning


natural gas for propulsion, Bergen gas engines have built an
unrivalled track record in powering ships, and reducing exhaust
emissions of carbon dioxide, NOx, SOx and particulates.
35
Emissions
Engine manufacturers are facing up to the challenge of increasingly
strict requirements for exhaust emissions and Rolls-Royce is no exception.
There is growing pressure to reduce CO2 and IMO Tier II regulations on
NOx emissions will be superseded by much tougher Tier III limits in 2016.

Both Bergen diesel engines and Bergen gas engines are designed for marine
propulsion and auxiliary duties. The B32:40 and C25:33 ‘Clean Design’ diesel
engines meet IMO Tier II requirements without additional off-engine clean
up. The B35:40 and C26:33 gas engines have NOx emissions lower than the
strict Tier III limits with lower CO2 equivalent emissions.

Bergen gas engines have been in marine service for seven years. Vessels
as diverse as roro ships, feed supply vessels, ferries, tugs and offshore
supply vessels are now in-service or on order with Bergen gas engines.
Gas tanks and the gas supply system to the engine are established
technology, within the Rolls-Royce scope of supply.

For many applications the gas engine is becoming a natural choice. CO2
equivalent emissions are reduced by 22 per cent compared with engines
burning liquid fuel, NOx emissions are cut by 92 per cent, while emissions
of SOx and particulates are negligible. The design of the Bergen C26:33
cuts methane slip to very low levels.

SCR Systems can be included into Rolls-Royce scope of supply.

NOx emission for Bergen engines

Note : D
 ue to continuous development, some data may change without notice.

General conditions for Bergen
marine engines
Marine liquid fuel engines
Ratings are according to ISO 3046-1, at maximum 45°C ambient air
temperature and maximum 32°C sea water temperature. Specific fuel
oil consumption is based on MDO with a net calorific value of 42,7
MJ/kg and no engine driven pumps. For each engine driven pump,
there is a need to add 0,5%.

Emissions
The marine diesel engines comply with the requirements of the IMO

DIESEL AND GAS ENGINES


Tier II without any external cleaning system. IMO Tier III is met by the
use of a Selective Catalytic Reactor (SCR) system.

The marine gas engines comply with IMO Tier III with no need for a
SCR system.

Heavy fuel oil operation


The engines are designed for operation on heavy fuel oil with viscosity

Marine gas engines


The marine gas engines give the following reductions in emissions
compared with diesels IMO Tier II: 92% NOx, net 22% greenhouse
gases and close to zero SOx and particulate matter. Marine gas engine
ratings are according to ISO 3046-1, at maximum 45°C ambient air
temperature and maximum 32°C sea water temperature. Specific
fuel gas consumption excluding engine driven pumps is based
on reference natural gas with Methane number above 70 and net
calorific value of 36 MJ/nm3. If there are engine driven pumps, add
0,5% for each pump. Gas feed temperature is 20-40°C. Minimum gas
feed pressure to Gas Regulating Unit to be 4,5 barg.

Dimensions
All dimensions are in mm. Dimensions and weights are given for
guidance purposes only and are based on a typical specification. For

MTU is working hard to meet and even exceed the increasing demands
of ship owners and operators for cost-effective and eco-friendly solutions.
One example is the engine TBO (Time Between Overhauls) which we
optimise on the basis of field data analysis and close inspection of engines
and components that have already proven their reliability in field operation.
Depending on the analysis results, we extend maintenance and TBO
intervals keeping safe operation assured.

MTU offers product lines specifically tailored to customer requirements.


Some are laid out for high power density with ideal power-to-weight-
ratios (application groups C, D and DS). Other product lines are specifically
configured to achieve maximum service life at lower power densities.
These are suitable for applications involving high load factors and runtimes
up to 8,000 hours per year (application groups A and B).

GAS TURBINES

Gas turbines
Rolls-Royce pioneered the use of aero-derivative gas turbines for
ship propulsion back in the 1950s. Gas turbines are exceptionally
power dense, enabling significant amounts of power to be
placed in small spaces, and have therefore been selected to
power yachts, hydrofoils, naval vessels and hovercraft.

With over 1000 gas turbines in naval service, Rolls-Royce is


continuing its tradition of transforming successful aero gas
turbines into marine engines. The 36MW MT30 that uses Trent
aero engine technology, is meeting the growing power
requirements of future naval programmes in both mechanical and
electric drive. Smallest of the range, the MT7, weighing just 441kg
delivers 4 – 5MW and has been selected to power the US Navy’s
new Ship-to-Shore Connector hovercraft.
61

PROPULSORS

Azimuth thrusters
Rolls-Royce is a global leader in the supply of azimuth thrusters.
In an azimuth thruster the propeller rotates 360° around the
vertical axis so the unit provides propulsion, steering and
positioning thrust for superior manoeuvrability. Designs have
been developed for propulsion and dynamic positioning in
response to market requirements. As a result there is a design
available to suit virtually any application. Simple and robust
construction provides high operational reliability together
with simple maintenance for low through life costs. Units can
be supplied for diesel or electric drive together with a remote
control system.

Contaz thrusters
The Contaz azimuth thruster range with contra-rotating propellers
provide high propulsive efficiency and reduced vibration. Efficiency
gains are 10 - 15 per cent over conventional azimuth thrusters. The aft
propeller regains some of the energy losses in the stream as well as
significant rotational losses, therefore there is a lower installed power
requirement that can release space on board and lowers fuel consumption.
Contaz units have a range of stem lengths and are ideal for passenger/
car ferries and vessels requiring high propulsive efficiency, i.e. low fuel
consumption.

Azimuth-PM thrusters
AZ-PM combines a ring-type permanent magnet electric
motor, propeller and nozzle in a tightly integrated
propulsion unit. It offers improved efficiency and
simplicity compared to conventional geared azimuth
thrusters with separate electric motors in the thruster
room. The permanent magnet azimuthing thruster is
a new addition to the Rolls-Royce family of thrusters,
building on the design developed and verified on
the permanent magnet tunnel thrusters with regard
to thruster design and motor integration.

The AZ-PM meets operational requirements with focus on performance


and reliability. The rotor of the motor forming a ring around the
propeller blades combined with advanced blade shapes, suppresses
or eliminates cavitation. The motor stator is incorporated in the nozzle
which controls water flow and provides increased thrust over a wide
speed range. The underwater unit can be rotated in azimuth to give
steering and vectored thrust in any direction.

PROPULSORS
A steel structure carries the steering bearing and this is simply bolted
into the hull. Only limited footprint space and headroom is required in
the thruster room as the only components there are the slipring case
that transfers power to the thruster and the compact electric steering
motors. Speed control is by varying the frequency of the voltage
supplied to the thruster motor.

A very high motor efficiency, 97% at nominal speed and high efficiency
over the whole load range, and the submerged motor mean that no
cooling equipment is required, saving space and reducing installation
cost. Simple bearings in the rotor hub carry all loads, and no oil circulation
pump is required for the underwater unit.

Azipull thrusters
The Rolls-Royce Azipull is a low drag, high efficiency pulling thruster that
provides both steering and propulsion. It combines the advantage of
the pulling propeller with the flexibility of using almost any type of drive
to suit specific vessel requirements. Azipull thrusters are designed for
continuous service speeds up to 24 knots, while maintaining excellent
manoeuvrability. They offer high hydrodynamic and fuel efficiency
with low noise and vibration levels. A substantial rudder area delivers
excellent course stability. Azipull units also allow the aft end of the hull
to be optimised for minimum resistance and simplified construction.

• All Azipull units are available
with CP or FP propellers and

72
Azipull-PM thrusters
The new Azipull-PM (AZP-PM) have an L-drive configuration using essentially
the same underwater unit as the conventional Azipull, but with a vertical
shaft permanent magnet (PM) motor integrated into a new upper unit.
The PM motor maintains a very high efficiency over a wide speed range.

Combined with the proven high propulsive and


hydrodynamic efficiency of the Azipull this will
be a winning combination, especially as there is
a further small gain in mechanical efficiency
by eliminating the upper gearbox. Space
requirements in the thruster room are reduced
because the new thruster is compact, the PM motor
lying within the diameter of the mounting flange
giving a small footprint and avoiding the
complication of a coupling and foundations for
the separate motor of a conventional Z or C drive
electric configuration.

First to be introduced to the market is

the AZP-PM L-drive 120 size, rated at
2,500 -3,500kW continuous. This will be
followed by two smaller frame sizes, 085 and 100, and one larger, the 150,
so that this azimuth thruster series will in due course span a power range
from 600kW to 5,000kW. They will cover the speed range up to 24 knots.

Key features:

Propellers
Rolls-Royce is a world leader in propeller design and supplies
controllable pitch propellers, fixed pitch propellers, and the
innovative adjustable bolted propeller. Unlike other propulsor
designers we have our own hydrodynamics research centre,
equipped with two cavitation tunnels. In over 40 years of
operation the centre has tested around 1,400 propellers and
waterjet pumps to perfect and prove the design. Rolls-Royce
propellers deliver good fuel economy, low vibration and noise
levels and minimal cavitation.
79
Controllable pitch propellers
A wide range of hub sizes is available for powers from around 500kW
up to 75MW for both four and five bladed propellers.

The Kamewa CP-A controllable pitch hub is an evolution of XF5 system,


renowned for its high reliability and blade bearing arrangement
designed to avoid peak pressures and cavitation. Compared to its
predecessor, the CP-A offers a 20 per cent improved power-to-weight
ratio, a significant increase in efficiency and a blade foot with decreased
exposure to cavitation. Propellers can be supplied with four or five blades
of high skew or moderate skew type, conventional or nozzle design.
The propeller is also available as full feathering.

The CP-A hub is designed for


­improved ­efficiency, strength
and ­cavitation properties.

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD)


and cavitation tank testing were
used to refine the contours of the
propeller hub and blade roots for
optimum performance.

Key features:
• Two main hub types are avaliable: • Bronze or stainless steel blades

SKF propeller sleeve mounting


Propellers can be supplied with the SKF
propeller sleeve. It is a keyless high-grade
steel sleeve with a cylindrical exterior
and tapered interior that simplifies
propeller removal and mounting. It offers
considerable cost savings in terms of
downtime, maintenance and repairs,
and allows full interchangeability with a
spare propeller. The SKF propeller sleeve

82
Adjustable bolted propellers
The adjustable bolted propeller (ABP) allows the most efficient blade
matching for optimum efficiency while simplifying installation. It uses a
hollow hub with four, five or six blades bolted to it from the inside. The
special bolts used to attach the blades require only simple hand tools.
Slotted holes in the hub allow the blade pitch angle to be adjusted
in service to compensate for variations in hull resistance through life.
The propellers overall weight is reduced for easier shipment, handling
and mounting. Individual blades can be replaced without drydocking.
Range from 3.000 kW up to 75MW.

Waterjets

PROPULSORS
The waterjet has many advantages over a propeller. The very high
efficiency of the Kamewa waterjet pumps offer higher speeds
for the same power or substantially lower fuel consumption at a
constant speed with less power.

Waterjets also give the engine an easier life. At constant rpm the
waterjets absorb approximately the same power regardless of
the vessel’s speed, so the engine can not be overloaded, giving
it a longer lifetime.

Typically waterjets produce less vibration and noise, improving


passenger comfort levels. At speeds over 20 knots noise and
vibration can be reduced by more than 50%.

Waterjets for naval applications can be built for special requirements


regarding signature, shock and other higher requirements.

Rolls-Royce control systems offers excellent manoeuvrability,


allowing vessels to be berthed quickly and with high precision.

Kamewa waterjets are designed for ease of installation, in hulls


made of different materials, reducing vessel build time and
simplifying shipyard logistics. They can be supplied with steering
and reversing buckets or as booster units providing forward thrust
only.
85
Steel series
Our steel waterjets
have the best pump
efficiency on the market.
Rolls-Royce can offer the best
performance for any application and requirements thanks to different
pump types and our modularised scope of supply. Also the requirement
for high efficiency at speeds around 30 knots can now be met.

The high efficiency can be utilised for reduced fuel consumption for a given
workload and consequently reduced CO2 emissions, as well as increased
range. In addition, use of inboard hydraulics also reduces the risk of oil spills.

The steel series incorporates numerous improvements made possible by


advanced design calculation methods and testing and production techniques.

Our modular set-up means two alternative steering and reversing units
are available.

The compact split type reversing bucket and steering nozzle enables superior
position keeping and manoeuvrability at low and high speeds. This helps
to reduce fuel consumption. It also cuts noise and emissions in harbour
manoeuvring and saves time, as well as improving safety. In high speed turns,
the jets maintain speed with high efficiency – a highly valued benefit
for patrol vessels and other vessels.

The box shaped steering and reversing unit occupies the smallest possible
installation space. This is important for fitting into narrow hulls, such as
trimarans. On yacht applications the reversing bucket must fit under the
swimming platform.

Close attention has been paid to extending service life. Maintenance is


intended to be easy and needed only infrequently, with a time between
overhauls involving replacement of parts subject to wear up to 25,000
running hours or five years. As an option
larger waterjet shaft seals can be replaced
with the vessel afloat using the inflatable
seal provided.

Several types of controls systems


are available. From the most
rugged system typically for

86
patrol vessels, via a standardised system for easy installation and to a new
system which can be customised to meet most demands.

The later is the CanMan Touch, a touch-screen based control system.


Among its features are ’Auto Positioning’ automatic manoeuvring
which controls the jets to keep the vessel at a desired point.

Skid version waterjets can also be supplied with a factory- mounted


and pre-calibrated control box.

Steel series – Modular installation
Steel series waterjets are designed to be easy to install in hulls
constructed from different materials. The owner or yard can choose from
three delivery concepts, each of which can also have a choice of three
different materials for the inlet duct.

Rolls-Royce recognises that shipyards have their individual preferences


for the way in which a waterjet is integrated into the vessel, the installation
sequence, and whether the inlet duct is supplied or built by the yard to
drawings.

Depending on size, the delivery programme is divided into three ways


of supplying steel series waterjets.

The first is that the yard receives the waterjet as a complete skid mounted
unit with pump and inlet together and possibly even the hydraulics
mounted. This results in a simple and effective installation.

The second option is that the inlet, hydraulics and controls are supplied
as a loose items, while the waterjet unit is supplied as a separate unit
to be bolted in place at a later stage of the construction of the vessel.

The third option appeals to shipyards that prefer to fabricate their own
inlet ducts as part of the hull construction using the same material. This
way they can achieve to have highest strength of the hull as well as the

optimal inlet duct efficiency. In this case Rolls-Royce supplies the waterjet
unit with controls and hydraulics, and provides the drawings with
optimum inlet shape for the yard to manufacture.

Irrespective of which of these options is chosen, the inlet can be made


of steel, aluminium or composite (FRP) to suit the material chosen for
the hull. In all cases the pump which forms the outboard unit will be
in stainless steel.

Aluminium series waterjets provide a high volume flow from the axial
pump, with a good driving thrust at lower speeds making them suitable
for both planing and displacement craft. They can be installed as single,
twin, triple or quadruple systems to suit the vessel design, with
steering/reversing or as boosters.

Impellers are made to match optimally the engine and gearbox range

Aluminium waterjets are normally supplied as skid-mount self-contained


units ready for rapid installation, but tailor-made inlets can be provided

PROPULSORS

Promas
Promas offers increased propulsive efficiency and improved
manoeuvrability by adapting the propeller and rudder into one
propulsive unit. It is suitable for conventional single and twin
screw ships.

Each installation comprises a twisted full spade rudder with


a Costa bulb that is smoothly connected to the propeller by a
hubcap, and a propeller design adapted to the rudder.

A well designed twist adapts the rudder to the rotation of the


propeller slipstream and reduces the angle of attack on the
rudder’s leading edge. This gives a more efficient rudder profile
with lower drag and better recovery of rotational energy from
the propeller slipstream.
99
Promas

Promas + nozzle Promas

Promas integrates the propeller, a hubcap, rudder bulb and the rudder
itself into a single hydrodynamic efficient unit.
A tapered hubcap fitted to the propeller hub leads the waterflow onto a bulb
which forms part of the spade rudder. The rudder has a twisted leading edge,
optimized for the flow from the propeller, which converts to into additional
forward thrust some of the swirl energy in the slipstreams that is normally lost.

The result is an increase in propulsive efficiency of up to 8 per cent depending


on the application, leading to reduced fuel consumption and emissions.
Large steering forces can also be developed.
Promas has been developed using the latest CFD technologies together
with extensive model testing in our own hydrodynamic research centre
facility. As the risk of hub vortex cavitation is removed., the radial distribution
of hydrodynamic loads on the propeller blades can be modified, reducing
tip loading and helping to limit the intensity of blade pressure pulses (up to
25per cent) and associated noise and vibration.

Promas + nozzle
A new nozzle, propeller, hubcap, bulb and rudder profile combined and
designed as one unit to maximise free-running efficiency and improve
bollard pull. Water flow leaving the nozzle passes over the special profile
rudder to provide high steering forces yet minimum drag. Testing

fuel reduction of more than 15% in transit.the special profile rudder to
provide high steering forces yet minimum drag.

Key features:
• Propeller and rudder designed as a single system for optimum efficiency
• Propulsive efficiency increased by 3 – 8 per cent
• Nozzle option can reduce fuel consumption in transit by 15 per cent or more
• Improved low speed manoeuvrability
• Improved possibility for low pressure pulse/low noise propeller design
• Almost as easy to install as a conventional propeller-rudder system
• Simple and robust with short payback time

Promas Lite

Promas Lite is a version of the successful Promas system that can be


easily fitted to vessels already in service. The installation is simple with
only three areas of modification:
• Welding a prefabricated bulb in position on the existing rudder
• Bolting the hubcap to the propeller hub

PROPULSORS
• Fitting of a new propeller or reblading the original one

Improving propulsive efficiency is key to reducing fuel burn and


emissions. Promas Lite installations on vessels operating significantly off
their original design speed should provide an efficiency improvement
in the region of 5 – 15 per cent. Recent installations on twin screw
cruise vessels have demonstrated efficiency improvements within
these guidelines giving a payback period of well under two years. The
improvement it delivers in propulsive efficiency means that engine
loads are reduced, which also helps to lower wear and tear on the
engine.

Key features:
• Reduced fuel consumption of • Short payback time
between 5 – 15 per cent • Simple and quick installation
• Lower exhaust emissions (7 – 10 days)

PROPULSORS

Podded propulsors
The Rolls-Royce electrical pods, type Mermaid have steadily
evolved over the last decade. The range offers five fame sizes
from 1,850mm to 2,770mm motor stator diameter, with five
powers from 5 to 27MW. Advances in design have increased
the power density, which means for a given power the pod
diameter can be reduced allowing a more streamlined form
for the underwater unit for improved efficiency. Both induction
and syncronous motors are offered. For ice-going vessels
induction motors are normally specified due to their good
torque characteristics at low speed. The application of Mermaid
pods is not restricted to passenger vessels or ice going ships.
Underwater mountable units are available for rigs, and Mermaid
pods are also powering naval vessels.
105
Podded propulsors
Mermaid pods offer flexibility in vessel design and machinery layout.
They combine the functions of a propulsion motor, main propeller,
rudder and stern thruster in a single unit. The integrated electric motor
drives the shaft, saving space on board and eliminates the need for
a gearbox.

The propeller is a fixed pitch high skew design for low noise and vibration.
It can be supplied as a monobloc or with separately bolted blades, that can
be simply changed in the event of damage. All seals are environmentally
friendly, with no oil release in the event of a failure.

Key features:
• Powers from 5 to 27MW • E nvironmentally friendly sealing
• Synchronous motor with arrangement
brushless excitation, or •R emote controlled brake and
induction motor locking unit
• Excellent manoeuvring •P ulling azimuth unit for maximum
capability propulsive efficiency.

Mermaid ICE and HICE
Mermaid ice-strengthened pods are specifically designed for all vessels
that operate in the toughest arctic conditions. Mermaid ICE units are
designed to IACS PC4 and provide excellent hydrodynamic performance
for open sea voyages for fuel savings in a mixed operating profile. HICE
pods (illustrated below) for heavy duty ice applications are designed for
ice classes to IACS PC1. Both types are equipped with robust heavy duty
induction PWM motors with high torque at low rpm suitable for tough
ice milling conditions.

HICE pods are designed for


heavy duty applications.

REDUCTION GEAR

Reduction gears
The Rolls-Royce reduction gear range is of the proven single-
input single-output design with built-in clutch and thrust
block. They have a variety of power take-offs that enable large
shaft generators to be driven, and electric motors to feed in
power for get-you-home propulsion or as part of a hybrid
system. Power, torque and shaft offsets correspond to current
and anticipated market demands in terms of engine power/
speed and propeller revolutions for a wide range of vessels.
Large reduction ratios allow for all popular medium speed
engines and give slow and efficient propeller speeds. They can be
specified with one-step reduction up to 6.1 - 6.3 and two-step
reduction with max. ratio up to 12:1.

STABILISATION AND
MANOEUVRING

Stabilisers
Various types of Rolls-Royce stabiliser technology can be
selected to match the vessel and its operating requirements.
Fin stabilisers are popular and suitable for a broad range of
vessels and reduce roll when underway. Tank stabilisation and
anti-heeling systems are effective at low speeds or when
stationary. The Neptune range uses a retractable fin that folds
into slots in the hull, flush with the vessel’s side, and is ideal
for cruise ships and larger ferries. The smaller and lightweight
Aquarius range is suitable for large yachts and smaller cruise
vessels. Fin designs have been modified and control systems
developed to provide stabilisation at rest capability for large
yachts using both Aquarius and Neptune range. Where it is not
necessary or required for the fin to retract, both the Modular
and Gemini range cater for a variety of applications including
military vessels.
117
Fin stabilisers
Rolls-Royce manufactures the broadest range of stabilisers in the market,
suitable for commercial or naval vessels of all sizes. The most recent
addition is ‘stabilisation at rest’ (SAR) specifically developed for large
yachts using retractable fins – a world first.

Non-retractable stabilisers
Modular
The Modular range uses a simplified design configuration that offers
reduced maintenance costs. In operation, the superior hydrodynamic
profile of the fin blade remains unbroken, reducing the potential for
cavitation. The range fully satisfies military standards for noise, shock
and vibration levels where required to meet specifications.

Stabilisation-at-rest
The stabilisation-at-rest system uses the proven and reliable Aquarius
and Neptune ranges of retractable stabilisers. The system is ideal for
medium to large yachts and is the world’s first to be made available
with the benefits of retractable fins.

The fins can be folded away when not required to improve safety,
maintain manoeuvrability in confined spaces or when travelling at high
speed. With the fin retracted drag is negligible, and compared to the
industry standard there is also less fin drag in the working condition.

`Active´ fin control and advanced hydrodynamic design give outstanding


roll reduction at anchor and the usual excellent performance whilst
underway.

Key features:
• Rolls-Royce retractable stabilisers will deliver the required roll reduction
with only a single pair of fins
• Fewer components and the sub-systems means reliability, and availability,
with less maintenance
• Units normally fit into the main machinery space, with simple access for
routine maintenance
• Electro-hydraulic actuation for low noise

Stabiliser fins have a larger surface area


for optimum performance at rest.

Steering gear
STABILISATION AND
MANOEUVRING

Rolls-Royce supplies a complete range of steering gear – suitable


for all ship sizes and types, including VLCCs, large container
vessels, offshore and naval applications and built on a 60 year
pedigree during which time more than 30,000 units have been
delivered. All steering gears are delivered as a complete system,
including hydraulic power units, control and alarm systems.
We also see more navies and coastguards selecting our ‘COTS’
steering gear.

Rotary vane steering gears are very compact – they include


integrated rudder carrier bearings (lubricated by the hydraulic
system oil) and are typically 50 – 60 per cent the weight of some
competing designs, with low noise and vibration. Operationally,
rotary vane is widely selected as it ensures full torque is available
at all rudder angles. It gives more flexibility in the design of the
steering system as the steering gear is optimised for the type of
rudder it will be used with. Units come in 2, 3 and 4 vane variants
with 70, 45 and 35° rudder angles respectively.
125
SR series
The SR series is suitable for small to medium-sized vessels. The steering
gear is designed with integrated frequency controlled pumps.
The pump utilises a reversible hydraulic pump motor together with a
frequency converter to reduce the power consumption and to change the
speed and the direction of the pump. The design gives smooth starting
and stopping of the steering gear, and enables a precise analogue
control system. The pump units are mounted directly on the rudder
actuator, which lessens the need for piping work on board a vessel.
Full frequency control means the pumps and motors are only running
when a steering command is given, this reduces the amount of heat
generated and leads to cleaner hydraulic system, improving the lifetime
of components.

Key features:
• Compact •A  vailable with steering control
• Low weight and rudder angle indicators as

Rotary vane steering gear -
for naval applications
The Rolls-Royce naval type of steering gear systems with digital controls
and autopilot have been selected by a large number ofthe world's navies
including the USA, Canada, Malaysia, India, Australia and the British
Royal Navy. The range has been developed to integrate seamlessly with
the vast number of applications deployed in naval fleets.

The compact size of the rotary vane steering gear facilitates ease of
fitting to single or multiple-rudder installations. The standard working
angle of a rotary vane unit is 37º to one side, although gears can be
supplied to give maximum working angles of 70º and 90º to one side.

Key features:
• Meets military standards for noise, • Compact size suitable for
shock and vibration installation on single or multiple-
• Select from a 17 model range to rudder installations

otary vane steering gear.

132
Actuator steering gear
The actuator gear is a cost-effective and reliable solution particularly
where full shock standards are not required. These gears are bespoke
designed to customer requirements and offer high performance at low
cost.

Furthermore, use of the actuator type means fewer interface surfaces


on board because the actuator's anchor brackets can be welded
directly on to the hull cartridge. This means that actuator steering gear
is less tolerance-critical for installation.

If problems occur with the hydraulic driving mechanism, replacing


an actuator is easier than a rotary vane or a ram type of steering gear.

The hydraulic power units can be configured to meet specific customer


requirements. It can also be delivered as a dual or single power units.

Rolls-Royce has therefore designed a range of flap rudders suitable for
different types of vessels and functions, to ensure customers receive a
rudder best suited to their vessel's operating requirements.

DECK MACHINERY

Deck machinery solutions


Rolls-Royce offers an unrivalled range of deck machinery
products and systems, ranging from cost effective winches for
mooring and anchoring vessels to specialised winches, cranes
and handling systems for offshore, tugs, naval ships and many
other types of vessel.

Throughout, the focus is on safety and efficiency.


141
The safest possible working
environment for operators

Rolls-Royce is an
experienced supplier to the
offshore supply and service fleet.

Complete deck machinery packages cover the vessel’s own mooring


and anchoring requirements. These are tailormade from standardised
modular components, with all types of drive, electric or hydraulic, to suit
the customer’s preferences, and include anchor windlasses, mooring
winches, warping drums and capstans.

Dry bulk tank installations are designed and supplied, with dome
or cone shaped tanks for cement, barite and bentonite and an easily
operated control and monitoring system. Tanks for other types of liquids
such as brine, drilling mud and special cargoes are incorporated in the
structure of Rolls-Royce designed vessels.
Safer Deck Operations are the focus, and we provide a variety of
equipment that helps make life safer for crew working on deck. Remote
controlled cranes running on tracks along the cargo rails command
the working deck, allowing cargo to be taken over the ship’s side or
stern from the quay and positioned accurately and safely. ASFA, the
automated sea fastening system then uses chocks running on recessed
tracks in the deck to move and secure containers or other deck cargo
such as pipes firmly in place so that they cannot shift in rough seas.

The newly developed safer hose operating system with retractable


hooks on the side of the PSV captures and controls rig hoses, removing
the crew from hazardous locations.

vessels (AHTS)
Rolls-Royce is the leader in developing the very large anchor handling/
towing winches that are the heart of an AHTS. They are made with
capacities of more than 600 tonnes pull, and with drums capable of
spooling wire rope for the deepest water moorings. These winches and
the control winch system are suitable for all sizes of anchor handlers, and
the winches are tailored to the specific vessel and its operations.

Pull capacity: 400 - 500 tonnes Pull capacity: 400 - 600 tonnes

Drive options
Our experience shows that the key feature of an AHT winch is rapid
dynamic response. Our low pressure hydraulic driven winches are
established favourites because of their excellent dynamic performance.
The newly developed E26 proportional pressure compensated valve
offers even more precise and responsive load independent speed control,
more accurate tension control and load sensing and less complex piping
installation for the shipyard. A hybrid solution has also been developed
where the normal loads are covered by AC asynchronous electric motors
but with a hydraulic supplement providing quick response to load peaks.
We are also introducing permanent magnet motors, which have similar
dynamic capabilities and controllability as for the low-pressure hydraulic
system for customers who prefer all-electric systems.

Automated handling systems
for subsea vessels
Deepwater installation will continue to grow
strongly and the number of wells in waters
of more than 1500 metres depth will increase
substantially in coming years.

Rolls-Royce provides a full range of multi-


purpose aft-deck systems for vessels involved
in inspection maintenance and repair (IMR)
and construction work. Our solutions have been
developed to enhance operational efficiency of
our customers.
Features such as active heave compensation, enable vessels to execute
operations in harsh weather conditions, significantly increasing the
operability of our systems.

A principal item of equipment is the Rolls-Royce module handling towers


centred on the vessel’s moon pool. The tower structure and integrated
equipment is very often customised to dedicated ships or operations,
but always ensure safe and easy access to subsea equipment when
on deck and horizontal guiding of the equipment during launch and
recovery through the moon pool. Our skid systems, consisting of pallets
and tractors, ensure that modules can be transported safely between
the tower and back deck without the need for lifting. The tower can
utilise either traditional wire rope or low weight synthetic fibre rope,
both with high performance and accurate heave compensation.

Active heave compensated subsea cranes are Launch and recovery systems for ROVs
now available with fibre rope using the CTCU • Accurate active heave compensation
and storage drum combination. • Side launch and moon pool launch
• Gentle handling of third party equipment

The unique and patented CTCU technology allows the traditional


steel wire rope to be replaced with synthetic fibre rope for lifting
purposes. Five frame sizes of CTCU are offered, spanning safe working
loads from 30 to 250 tonnes giving nearly 500 tonnes lift in a two- fall
system.
DECK MACHINERY

Remotely operated vehicles play a key role in subsea operations,


and our extensive portfolio focuses primarily on active heave
compensated systems. The LARS is designed to handle the largest
work class ROVs to depths exceeding 4000 metres, deployed over the
side or through the moon pool. Our systems are designed, built and
certified with high focus on gentle handling of umbilical and third
party equipment.

Our integrated crane solutions are specially developed to meet the


challenges of maritime handling operations. The cranes are fully
integrated with our deck machinery handling and control systems
and offer unparalleled performance as well as reliability and comfort.
For general handling of offshore equipment we offer dual draglink
cranes with capacities from 35 to 75 tonnes, and knuckle boom
cranes in the range from 150 to 250 tonnes.

147
Automated handling systems
for seismic vessels

Rolls-Royce innovative, automated handling systems for seismic vessels


are the most reliable on the market. Over the years, these handling
systems have continuously improved the efficiency and safety of seismic
operations and have become industry standards. We have widened the
operational window, reducing time lost due to rough weather conditions
and boosting profitability significantly. Our equipment simply works
when you need it. This is part of our focus on providing reliability for our
customers.

We are involved throughout the value chain of seismic systems and are
engaged early in the design of seismic handling solutions. We collaborate
closely with customers to design the ship’s entire aft deck, developing
comprehensive solutions to the specified needs of each vessel. Layout
of winches and other equipment can be configured to suit both
conventional and innovative vessel designs and any number of streamers.

Our automated handling concepts are made up of unique components,


all of which are designed and delivered by Rolls-Royce as individual
products or built up into complete systems.

Hydraulic or electric streamer winches provide gentle and sensitive


handling of streamers, with drum capacities to cover all length
requirements. These are complemented by source and deflector
handling systems, fairleads and the wide tow system.

As well as streamer and source handling systems for 2D and 3D seismic


survey, we provide deep water ocean bottom seismic systems for vessels
performing ocean bottom seismic, both cable and node types, also
CSEM solutions for electromagnetic surveys.

The result is cutting-edge solutions that strengthen the efficiency of


the vessel and create a safer ship for the crew. For example, our control
system, a result of decades of experience in developing such systems,
allows operators to direct and synchronise all winches, streamers and

149
Automated handling systems
for oceanographic vessels
Rolls-Royce assists the work of an oceanographic research vessel in
deploying scientific equipment from the stern or side of the ship to sample
the water column, investigate life in the sea or on the seabed, and examine
the geology of the ocean floor. The oceanographic equipment puts a
variety of demands on the handling system. Some items are towed behind
the vessel, some are lowered and lifted, others are dropped freely and then
hauled up.

We typically provide a suite of specialised winches and fairleads, A-frames


and side gantries, and specialised tools for safely setting out and recovering
items of scientific equipment. Combined with an integrated state of the art
control system, this ensures efficient operations, careful handling of in-sea
equipment and increases safety.

Systems are designed to suit the particular ship, creating optimum solutions
with respect to both operational needs and available space. By working
together with the customers and ship designers, this ensures systems are
reliable and optimised for the ship’s tasks and missions.

With the unique and patented Cable Traction Control Unit (CTCU)
technology, the traditional steel wire rope can be replaced with fibre rope.
The usefulness of a steel wire rope at depths greater than 4000 metres is
limited, whereas the fibre rope has the same capacity at all depths. For
example coring operation at depths below 4000 metres can be efficiently
performed with the CTCU. The compact version of the CTCU has a pulling
capacity up to 30 tonnes, and rope lengths up to 12,000 metres can be
accommodated. CTCU systems with pulling capacity up to 150 tonnes can
be delivered.

We offer frames for handling hydrographic equipment over the stern with ratings
up to 30 tonnes, an outreach of 4.5 metres and a clear lifting height of 8 metres.

Other equipment includes parallelogram frames for side launching and


recovery, deep tow and deep water coring systems, handling equipment for
piston coring, with the associated active heave compensated winch systems.

The CTCU has separate drive to each sheave. Individual speed


control ensures that there is no slip on the sheaves. Modes and
features like active heave compensation, constant tension, pull
limit and automatic landing/ lift-off are available.

taking oil from wells and
storing it on board until
it can be offloaded into
shuttle tankers for
transport to shore
terminals. They need to
be securely moored
over the well and for

deck machinery tailored to the customer’s needs

In a movable windlass installation each of the moorings lines has its own
fairlead and stopper. A single windlass moves along the frame to tension
each chain in turn, the stoppers are actuated and locked on to the chain,
transferring the mooring loads to the hull. An alternative system has a triple
windlass, one lifter to each mooring, with associated stoppers and fairleads.

Spar platforms have the working decks supported by a buoyant column


ballasted at the bottom to keep it vertical. It is secured on location by a
spread mooring system. Fairleads are mounted around the column and the
chains are tensioned by chain jacks that haul the chain up and lock it at the
desired position. The system is supplemented by hydraulic power packs,
a control and monitoring system with load measurement, and control
consoles.

Fishing solutions
Rolls-Royce deck machinery offers a complete winch, control and
monitoring system for ocean-going fishing vessels. We have high focus
on safety, quality and user friendliness, and offers customised winch
systems according to requirement.

Customers can choose between two drive systems:


• Low pressure hydraulic winch system, with electric frequency drive on
towing pumps
• Electric winch system, with permanent magnet (PM) motors on trawl
winches

Both drive systems have been developed to achieve the best possible
dynamic properties in challenging conditions, which is especially
important for bottom trawling where the trawl can get stuck in the seabed.
In bad weather the system keeps the trawl gear in the best position to fish
efficiently and reduces wear and tear on equipment.

BRH64 low pressure hydraulic winches are constructed with high torque
low speed motors based on 64 bar pressure. Advantages include quiet
operation and low maintenance cost. BRH64 gives high dynamic shooting
speed, which gives you good and safe control of the operation. The towing
pumps can be powered by frequency drive which gives variable rpm on
the electric motors to suit the oil flow demands of the hydraulic motors.
This gives reduced fuel consumption, less wear and tear and even quieter
running. We can offer winches with pull from 3 to 74 tonnes without gear
transmission, and winches from 75 to 150 tonnes with a small reduction
gear ratio.

On electric trawl winches we are now using PM motors. With this


technology we are able to remove the gear unit, achieving unique dynamic
properties also in the electric trawl winches. Drives are either air cooled or
water cooled, and can be integrated in the vessel’s main switchboard or SG
to utilise the regenerative power.

Electric fishing winch systems are also available with standard AC motors
and planetary or parallel gear transmission.

Autotrawl system
The Synchro RTX Autotrawl system provides dynamic control of single-
rig and twin-rig bottom trawling, pelagic trawling and pair trawling.
The trawl system is one of the most advanced on the market, using
integrated safety logic and a user-friendly interface. Essential control
and monitoring functions are fully integrated, giving major benefits
during commissioning and operation. This system keeps the trawls
fully open when changing course during trawling. The trawl is kept
moving at constant speed, even under difficult conditions. If the trawl
snags, the system pays out wire automatically to prevent damage.

The Synchro RTX Autotrawl is the optimum solution for maximising


catching ability for single and double trawls. The system is based on
the latest technology, providing excellent stability, simple operation
and great flexibility.

157
Towing winch systems for tugs
Rolls-Royce has a portfolio of towing and escort winches developed
specifically for tug operations. Hydraulic drives can be specified with power
from the engine PTO or with electro-hydraulic power packs, and full electric
winches have frequency control.

An Escort/Harbour tug will typically have a Rolls-Royce main winch on the


foredeck and towing winch on the aft deck to enable it to carry out its main
tasks efficiently: braking or steering the escorted vessel out of danger in
case of technical failure, acting as an additonal rudder for the assisted vessel,
or general harbour assist and deep sea towing.
Winches are designed and sized to suit the operational needs. Towing
winches cover pulls from 10 to 150 tonnes, with waterfall winches extending
the pull range to 300 tonnes. Our escort tug winches are designed to
provide the sensitive control needed for this type of work, with pulls up to
150 tonnes and also rendering tensions in the range 10 to 200 tonnes. With
AC or permanent magnet motors and frequency control they can provide
rendering and recovery powers up to 1100kW.

All come with wheelhouse control and monitoring stations that display all
the key data.
The quality, robust construction and flexibility of these winches have
made them firm favourites with major tug operators around the world.
Furthermore, the equipment from our towing winch portfolio is well
suitable for icebreakers operating in arctic conditions as well as to any
vessel suitable for emergency towing operation, like coastal and multi-
purpose vessels.

Multifunctional
cargo rail cranes
Cargo rail cranes have been developed to improve safety on deck, where
the crew have to handle heavy moorings and deck cargo at sea. Rail
cranes equipped with various manipulators are an integral part of this,
enabling the crew to conduct operations on any part of the working
deck by remote control from a safe location.

Working on the deck of an anchor-handler poses a risk to life and limb. To


reduce this risk, the cargo rail cranes are equipped with comprehensive
systems for handling ropes, wires, chains and shackles, which may be
under great tension, with the minimum of manual work on deck.

Fibre rope cranes


A range of offshore cranes up to 400 tonnes load using field proven
Rolls-Royce fibre rope handling technology is now launched. The
crane structure have been adapted to handle fibre rope, utilizing the
field proven CTCU (cable traction control unit) which forms the crane
winch, provides active heave compensation and stores the rope on

The Rolls-Royce standard RAS systems is designed to transfer 2 tonnes at
ship distances from 24 to 55m, (max. 61m) and at ship speeds between 10
and 16 knots. A new heavy replenishment-at-sea system (HRAS) has been
developed that will permit loads of up to 5 tonnes to be safely transferred
between ships. This contrasts with the light jackstay rig which is a simple
manual system for the transfer of loads up to 250kg.

At the heart of each system is the AC powered jackstay winch, that


automatically responds to extremes of vessel movement once the tension
is set. Where liquids and solids are required to be transferred at the same
time the dual capacity high performance rig is the ideal solution. A single
control console controls fuelling and/or transfer operations.

Electrical power systems

Rolls-Royce provides a range of services spanning the full life-cycle of


marine systems and equipment, from concept to disposal. Electrical power
systems and electrical/mechanical hybrid propulsion concepts have been
developed and installed on a wide range of vessels.

Rolls-Royce has a pedigree in the design and supply of electrical systems


and is capable of taking the lead in the design and supply of vessel
power systems in excess of 100MVA, tailored to specific requirements
and supported by a range of high and low voltage products. Electrical
networks are designed and supplied through the use of industry standard
simulation tools and hardware. An integrated analysis environment
has been developed that allows power system analysis on a range of
equipment including the mix of mechanical and electrical systems, hybrid
configurations and their controls.

168
Hybrid and electric
propulsion systems
By moving to hybrid or electric propulsion, owners have in-built
flexibility that can not only reduce emissions and optimise fuel
consumption, but they are lighter and take up less space, with lower
noise and vibration levels and reduced maintenance costs.

We optimise the system to match the vessels operating profile, the


main designs are illustrated.

Electric systems are normally transformer-less with variable frequency


motors on fixed frequency networks. This means they can also
accommodate a battery power supply and can be plugged into a
shore connection of variable frequency.

We select the best components from our broad supplier base and
deliver a complete package. This approach relieves the shipbuilder of
much of the technical risk and managing multiple equipment suppliers.

ELECTRICAL,

A traditional diesel-electric propulsion system already supplied to over 130


vessels operating today.

Uses active front end (AFE) technology for more stable clean voltage and
fast response to load control changes.

The number of generators installed is dependent on the total


shipboard power requirements and the vessel's operating profile.
Those running is dependent on the power required. When transiting at
slow speed or in stand-by mode with a reduced power demand, some
engines can be turned off.

SAVe Cube
Platform supply, multi-purpose, emergency response/rescue, coastguard

The latest generation system designed with a single integrated drive-


switchboard for the whole vessel.

All frequency convertors, drives and switchboards are housed in a single


cabinet for a significantly smaller footprint. A single cabinet is simpler
to cool and has fewer connections. It is therefore much easier to install,
many more connection terminations are done at the factory.

Additional battery power is available for slow speed transits in harbour


or for peak power load smoothing. All engines can operate at variable
speeds to maximise their efficiency for the required power. Engine
speed will automatically be adjusted to the power being demanded in
the most fuel efficient way.

SAVe Step
Power intensive ships - small cruise, diving support, platform supply,
construction support, jack-up and well intervention vessels. and research
vessels.

Similar to the SAVe Line system but specifically designed for vessels with over
20MW of installed generated power. The main difference is the incorporation
of transformers to step-down the voltage. The system uses high voltage
(3-11kV) on the main switchboard and generators and low voltage on the
consumers and distribution. Combined pulse (12, 18 or 24 pulse) and step-
down transformers can be used in combination with pulse drive units.
Alternatively, the system can be based on AFE drive units, therefore only step-
down transformers are used and all the advantages of the SAVe Line system
with AFE are realised in the most fuel efficient way.

point. The ability to reduce engine rpm to match
the vessel's overall power requirements significantly reduces fuel consumption
and emissions. Upgrading existing systems to HSG is normally straightforward
with a short payback time.

Boost mode – for maximum speed


This mode is selected for maximum speed and harnesses most of the
ship’s power, including output from the auxiliary generator sets for
propulsion. The shaft generator is operating as a motor with an output
of 2,500 kW running in parallel with the 6,000 kW main diesel engine
at 750 rpm. This gives a total power of 8,500 kW on the propeller shaft.

Diesel-electric mode – for efficient lower speeds


Two auxiliary gensets are running at 50 per cent power providing 900 kW
each to the system. 300 kW is used for hotel loads and 1,500 kW is
available for propulsion. In this mode, the shaft generator is running as
a motor with the HSG system controlling the shaft speed.

172
Parallel mode – for excess power
This is a new efficient way of running two engines, where the power
required for propulsion and hotel loads exceeds that available from
the generator sets alone. The shaft generator is feeding 500 kW into
the eletrical system in parallel with one auxiliary generator. The HSG
system keeps the frequency fixed at 60 HZ even if the main engine is
running at around half power with variable speed.

Transit mode – for optimum efficiency


This mode is used to optimise propeller efficiency for the required speed. The
main engine runs at variable speed with the shaft generator supplying the
ship’s electrical needs. Therefore, both auxiliary generators can be shut off.

Shore connection mode – for lower fuel consumption


When the ship is in harbour it has the possibility for connecting to

the normal shore power and frequency (50Hz). The HSG converts the
frequency to the ship power system which is 60 Hz. It can also avoid

“black-out” during changeover from shore to ship power. There is


no need to run any of the auxiliary gensets, which will save fuel and
reduce emissions. In addition, noise and vibration levels onboard are
reduced to a minimum.

173
SAVe Charge
Power solution well suited for ferries, tugs and any vessel where power
from shore grid is the main power source.

The SAVe Charge architecture has both a DC and AC distribution system.


At sea, power is supplied by energy storage. The system includes
intelligent energy balancing to ensure equal utilisation between the two
energy storage systems. This is particularly beneficial for double ended
ferries where the load on the two propellers (one in each end) may have
unequal energy consumption on each crossing. To avoid installation of
oversized batteries or unequal discharging of the energy storage systems
during operation, the energy use is balanced between the to systems.
The balancing is arranged so that conversion losses are kept to a minimum.

The SAVe Charge solution has only one conversion between energy
storage and consumers. Every electrical and mechanical conversion
in a power system will introduce losses. By reducing conversions and
combining with other Rolls-Royce Marine technologies like permanent
magnet propulsion and automated crossing, the full efficiency gain of
an integrated system solution can be realized.

Safety
The system is designed with the capability to supply energy in any
direction and can bypass any single fault. Thereby providing additional
levels of redundancy and safety for personnel and equipment. Back-up
engines can be integrated for increased operational resilience (reduced
charging capability, adverse weather conditions, etc.)

Benefits
• No fuel consumption or emissions – During normal operation no engines
are required
• Increased safety – Can supply energy in any direction, which enables
bypass of a single failure in the power system
• Reduced losses – Combining the newest technologies in power, automation
and propulsion reduces losses to a minimum
• Equal life cycle – Intelligent energy balancing to ensure equal energy storage

Energy storage
Marine batteries have developed to a level where the technology is looked
at with keen interest in different branches of shipping. Energy can now
be stored on-board in such quantities that it enables numerous operational
benefits:

Profile zero emissions


Energy storage system powers the complete system, eliminating the
need for engines. No emissions, no fuel consumption or noise are some
of the advantages.

Profile spinning reserve


Energy storage is connected and running, but not charging or discharging.
If loss of generator capacity occurs, energy storage steps in to handle the
load for a predefined period of time.

Profile peak shaving


Energy storage absorbs load variations in the power network. The energy
storage will level out the power seen by engine and eliminate peak load
required start of new engines. Power can be generated at peak efficiency
and at the lowest cost.

Profile enhanced dynamic performance


Energy storage absorbs sudden load changes and prolongs engine
ramp up. This enables optimized fuel and emission performance of engines
in dynamic power applications.

While growing concern over global warming has prompted the need
for overarching international treaties to reduce the carbon footprint,
the uptake of marine batteries has spurred some national and regional
policy makers to accelerate the shift to greener shipping.

176
System options

Hybrid solution
Even if the energy storage system cannot be recharged from the land-
based electrical grid, several of the operational benefits can be used to
improve the operating conditions for the engines and increase vessel
safety.

The energy storage system can be sized to bridge intermittent


load peaks so that prime movers can be smaller and operate more
efficiently. Even a small energy storage solution can provide load
smoothing and improve operating conditions for the engines.

Distributed energy storages can provide back-up power for propulsors,


allowing it to move itself from a critical situation even after blackout
on main switchboards.

Hybrid plug/in solution
In many cases, the grid is not able to provide the full energy need of
the vessel within the time provided for recharging. A substantial benefit
can still be achieved by hybrid operation.

This would typically allow for installation of smaller main engines. Depending on
type and size, the energy storage installation can also be arranged to take all
rapid transients or even allow the generator to operate at fixed load.

Both will allow engines to be operated with much lower temperature


fluctuations which yields reduction of both fuel consumption and
emissions as well as potential for extended maintenance intervals.

Power management
Rolls-Royce power management provides full control of the ship’s
electric power distribution system and ensures coordinated and
resilient operation. It automatically optimises power system operation
and provides the operator with quick access to power system data and
intuitive, easy to use, control interfaces.

Energy management
To help customers reduce
energy consumption and
become more environmentally
friendly, the Rolls-Royce energy
management system provides unprecedented access to operational data.

Data is captured, transmitted to shore and processed via a web portal.


The portal is updated daily and provides detailed reports or historical
trends showing data such as vessel operating modes, equipment
running hours and fuel consumption. Fleet reporting enables customers
to make comparisons across their fleet, for example, to see which
vessels are operating most efficiently and to identify areas for energy
efficiency improvement.
AUTOMATION AND CONTROL

The system also provides evidence to illustrate compliance with


emissions regulations and enables customers to verify their return

Automatic crossing system


Designed to optimise energy consumption of ferry operations, the system
interacts with the power and propulsion control systems. The captain
manages the course and the track by using an existing autopilot / track
pilot. The crossing system provides optimal acceleration to transit
speed and engages thrusters as needed for the transit and the
docking. The crossing system will optimise the energy consumption
by adjusting propeller pitch and rpm and the power distribution
between the propulsors. Prior to arrival, the system will automatically
decelerate to prepare for docking. If manual command is not taken,
the ferry will fall to rest at predefined location.

the Rolls-Royce systems on board a vessel. When the crew grants access,
the service is enabled via a safe and secure encrypted VPN connection.

Benefits include reducing the need for costly on-site service visits and
provision of everyday troubleshooting assistance, leading to reduced
vessel downtime. Using remote access we can find system faults,
download log files, and inspect the systems’ health, allowing us to offer
advice on preventive maintenance and if required, adjust some of the
system settings.

Product and systems training


Any ship is made up of a large number of systems. The crew needs to
understand how these systems work and interact if they are to operate the
vessel safely and to the highest level of efficiency with minimum wear or
equipment failures. To help crews achieve high standards of competence,
Rolls-Royce offers a wide range of training courses on products and systems.
We help customers optimise operations by delivering world class, innovative
training solutions, which reduce operational risk and downtime, improve
safety and meet regulatory standards. Typically, the courses include
troubleshooting and maintenance training, using time in simulators
where appropriate and in workshops with real equipment for hands-on
experience. We also provide tailor-made courses to train crews in the
operation of their new Rolls-Royce designed or equipped vessel. Well-
equipped regional training centres with experienced instructors are
established in Norway, Brazil and Singapore.

Mode shifting
Simply shifting modes
A challenge with complex hybrid systems is that changing operating
modes can be complicated. The newly developed Rolls-Royce Acon
mode shift system automates the process, so that with a single keystroke
on the bridge the captain can shift from one mode to another. Optimal
and economic operation also requires an overview of the ship systems,
so the captain and the engineers need to see how efficiently the systems
and equipment are working. Here, the Acon economy picture provides
the basis for optimisation, or indicates the need to move to a different
mode. Combining these products with a Rolls-Royce power and
propulsion system gives a unique combination of user-friendliness and
flexibility, not only when the vessel is new, but also later in life, when the
operating profile may well have changed.

Ship intelligence
Ship intelligence is our portfolio of products and services, which
we believe, will revolutionise operations within the marine industry.

We are pushing the boundaries of ship technology by harnessing


SHIP INTELLIGENCE

the power of data in order to deliver through-life asset optimisation.


Our model to sense, acquire, transfer, analyse and act (SATAA) will
deliver customer solutions in the areas of health management,
energy management, and remote and autonomous operations.

The ship intelligence era brings us to an age where ships are


becoming integrated into larger operations. Owners and operators
will expect to have total awareness and control in this area to
optimise asset utilisation, and ultimately, their wider operations.

The first solution in our portfolio is energy management.


201
Energy management
Enhancing awareness for improved operational efficiency

Rolls-Royce energy management (EM) is a hardware and software


solution that helps promote an evidence-based, data-driven culture of
continuous improvement.
It helps our customers to improve crew awareness of their ship's performance,
supports environmental reporting and potentially allows customers to
reduce energy usage, fuel consumption
and operating costs.

Our on-shore portal allows for informed Key information is presented in a clean and
decisions to be made at a glance. understandable format on board.

On-board system
Our EM solution comprises an on-board interface, which utilises data
from the ship’s automation system and a multitude of sensors on the vessel,
which is logged at frequent intervals and processed in real time. Selected
information such as vessel fuel consumption benchmarked against a
baseline is displayed graphically using a focused and intuitive design on
the on-board interface. This provides valuable insight to the crew, which
they can then act on to optimise operations.

On-shore portal
All data is then collected, encrypted and transmitted on to a Rolls-Royce
hosted web portal onshore, where more detailed analysis can be carried
out. Our cloud-based portal enables fleet managers and operators to
compare actual performance data on a ship and fleet level with historical
benchmarks. Performance indicators and baseline analysis create potential
for further improvement and help to enable a data-driven performance
management and decision-making approach.

Additional services
In addition to on-board and on-shore capabilities, as part of our solution
customers have access to 24/7 support. As an option, we also offer our
advanced analytics consultancy service, ‘Expert in the loop’. This service
provides crews with a deeper insight into their vessel’s operations. Customers
