... Abstract Polar multi-year ice thickness and extent will continue to reduce, and the traffic volumes in polar seas are expected to grow. Since the first podded propulsion was installed in an icebreaking vessel more than 30 years ago, Double Acting ships have delivered excellent results...

... Originally, FPSOs were built by converting oil tankers modified to perform this new function. In addition to tanker conversions, specific new designs for FPSOs (named "newbuild") have become a reality in the maritime industry. In short, an FPSO comprises the ship's hull and marine systems...

... Abstract Slamming pressures provide one of the most important load sets for the design and classification of ships and offshore structures. These loads are highly localized and nonlinear, and therefore difficult to predict. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a viable tool...

... Abstract Under the development of the Brazilian pre-salt onerous concession areas Petrobras contracted Enseada Industria Naval for the conversion of 4 (four) VLCC ships into the hulls of FPSOs P74, P75. P76 and P77, for which PROJEMAR have awarded a contract for the complete hull conversion...

The challenge with such a solution is that it will normally require expensive dedicated LNG ships with DP (Dynamic Positioning) and LNG Bow Loading Systems. This paper is describing...

... ) ( Humpuss Intermoda, 2014 ). Emerging floating technologies, such as gas-to-wire (GTW) for power generation, gas-to-liquid (GTL) for synthetic fuel conversion, and compressed natural gas (CNG) ships for marine gas transport, are being developed to focus on development of the significant number of fields...

... Abstract This paper describes the building of a ship for single-lifting of very large topsides of offshore platforms. The ship's layout and functioning was described in an earlier OTC paper (Heerema, E.P. 2012). The paper covered in detail the significance of a motion compensation system...

... In ship hull design, it is important to predict the seakeeping parameters like ship motions, vertical accelerations, wave impact loads, deck wetness, etc. when the ship is subjected to waves.
