- Korean shipyard Hyundai Heavy Industries and classification society Germanischer Lloyd presented a design study for a 13,000 TEU container ship that could enter service in the near future.
- The ship would be 382 meters long and have two main engines with twin propellers to power its speed of 25.5 knots. This twin drive configuration was determined to be only marginally more expensive than a single engine design.
- Extensive calculations and tests were conducted over 1.5 years to validate the design, which separates the deckhouse and engine room for improved visibility and fuel tank protection. The yard is now accepting orders for ships based on this innovative design.

Hamburg, 30 September 2005 - With an On the other hand, the single-engine variant innovative design study for a 13,000 TEU leads to several difficulties that have not been container ship, Germanischer Lloyd and the solved as yet. The output of a 14-cylinder Korean yard Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) engine is not enough to achieve the required are showing just how big container carriers will speed, whereas a 16-cylinder engine would be be in the near future. Before over 100 too large. As regards propeller size, HHI customers at the Container Forum, Mr D.S. believes that the maximum has been reached Cho, Executive Vice President of HHI, and with a diameter of 9.5 m and a weight of 110 t. Jan-Olaf Probst, Ship Type Manager for What is more, the single-screw design involves Container Ships at Germanischer Lloyd, a great risk of cavitation; the extremely high presented their new ship design with two main shaft power also represents a hazard. engines and two propellers. All the relevant With a view to meeting the SOLAS calculations have been carried out and the requirements for bridge visibility on such a design completely approved by Germanischer large ship, the design envisages the Lloyd; the Korean yard is now accepting separation of deckhouse and engine room. orders. The innovative arrangement of the deckhouse The ship is 382 metres long and 54.2 metres in the forward part of the ship permits an wide, and has a draught of 13.5 m. The 6,230 increase in container capacity and a reduction containers below deck are stacked in 10 tiers in ballast water. The international regulations and 19 rows, while the 7,210 deck containers on the protection of fuel tanks are also are stowed in 21 rows. Powered by two 45,000 satisfied with this design, because they are kW engines, the vessel's speed is 25.5 knots. located in the protected area below the The design study is characterized by two deckhouse. Another welcome result of this technical innovations: the cooperation partners innovation is reduced bending and increased decided on a twin drive configuration and the stiffness of the hull. separation of deckhouse and engine room. Over a period of one and a half years, the The question as to what propulsion powers cooperation partners Germanischer Lloyd and and arrangements are needed to achieve the Hyundai Heavy Industries performed desired speed of 26 knots may be answered calculations for all components of the ship. by diverse technical approaches: in the early The study investigated the layout of the ship, phase of detailed calculations, not only the the number of containers and their stowage, twin drive, but also the possibilities offered by the design of the fuel tanks, and also provided one main engine, as well as one main engine for strength analyses. Further aspects included with an additional pod drive, were considered. slamming calculations, propulsion plants, The cost estimate for the various drive engine room design and vibration analyses. In configurations, never before done by a addition to towing experiments, tank model shipyard, indicated that a twin propulsion tests were also carried out at Hyundai in system was only negligibly more cost-intensive respect of parametric rolling, with the support than the variant with only one main engine. of Germanischer Lloyd. At the same time, programs developed by Germanischer Lloyd From the technical standpoint, the aspect of were used to examine the behaviour of the absolute safety is a major argument for the ship in a seaway, especially parametric rolling. twin drive. In the event of an engine failure, the Moreover, exhaust emission tests were ship would remain manoeuvrable and could conducted to determine the optimum position reach a safe harbour under its own steam. The for the funnels. main-engine and shaft sizes correspond to those of a 4,000 TEU carrier. More than 15 The production period for such a ship lies at 9 years of experience and smooth operation to 10 months. Owing to the great workload of speak in favour of this size of propulsion unit. the yard, delivery before 2009 will not be Engines and propellers of this size are in possible. widespread use, making the maintenance and procurement of spare parts both easy and cost-effective.
