Developed by Ampelmann, the global leader in offshore access solutions, it is currently the only gangway system of its kind able to operate in remote and extreme cold climate. The N-type gangway, nicknamed ‘Icemann’ has been installed on the Stepan Makarov, a new ice-class platform standby vessel built for the Sakhalin-2 project under a 20-year charter between Sakhalin Energy and vessel operator, Sovcomflot. It is the first standby vessel in the world to use such a gangway for operations in severe ice states and temperatures. “The Icemann was born in response to a growing demand for safe and effective transfer equipment in frontier regions,” said Arnoud van Leer, senior motion control engineer with Ampelmann. “It is purpose-built to service remote and extreme cold climate oil and gas operations in areas such as non-Arctic Russia, Norway and Canada, as well as regions of the Caspian Sea. We worked closely with Sakhalin Energy over a period of two years to tailor the system to the unique requirements of the project.”Built in The Netherlands, it is designed to safely and efficiently transfer crew in extreme ice states and temperatures as low as -28 oC (-18 oF). The fully enclosed and insulated system is operational in sea states up to 3.5 metres (m) significant wave height and comprises active motion compensation. The transfer deck can accommodate up to 20 people and can rotate 360 degrees to ensure flexibility in platform landing locations and directions. It has a maximum gangway length of 32m, a telescopic scope of 11m and a footprint of 11x11m. “Given the remoteness of the work, it was crucial to ensure that any maintenance required to the gangway system was minimized and this was reflected in the design. Various extreme weather technologies were employed in the design of the Icemann, making it the most high performance gangway system that has ever been built from an operations and conditions point of view.”Before leaving Ampelmann’s manufacturing facility in Delft, The Netherlands, the Icemann was successfully tested offshore in the North Sea. The system successfully compensated its first waves while company operators evaluated the performance of the system. Following completion of the trials, the Stepan Makarov arrived in Rotterdam for the system mobilization, which was completed in a matter of days. In addition, Sakhalin Energy will charter a standard, non-winterized version of the motion compensated gangway for five years, to be installed on a second ice breaking support vessel, the Fedor Ushakov, and to support the personnel transfer requirements during the summer period.

As more Asians discover the joy of cruise travel, operators are responding to the rising demand for wellness-themed options. Cruise line capacity in the region has grown in the past four years to 4.24 million passengers. According to a 2017 Cruise Lines International Association report, there are 66 cruise ships in Asia, five of which can each carry more than 3,500 passengers. In 2016, 3.1 million passengers from Asia took to the seas, 55 per cent more than the previous year. China is the major source of these tourists, accounting for 2.1 million, or 68 per cent of all passengers. Health and wellness is a growing reason for people to travel in Asia, according to Thatcher Brown, president of Genting’s Dream Cruises. Citing a recent industry report, he points out that, beyond accommodation, 33 per cent of guests place importance on fitness Distribution : daily to 38.150+ active addresses 02 -12-2017 Page 5 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2017 – 338 facilities, while 28 per cent mention spa facilities. International cruise operators are heeding the call, rolling out new-wave wellness and spa options. The 18-deck Genting Dream can carry 2,000 crew members serving 3,400 passengers. The year- old vessel has the largest Asian spa at sea, with more than 60 treatment “thrones” spread across 1,300 square metres. Its Crystal Life Asian Spa offers Chinese therapeutic reflexology an meridian energy massage, and traditional Chinese tui-na or body acupressure. It also offers a fitness centre with popular classes such as spinning, pilates and yoga. “It was a special takeaway from the trip,” said Pevon Kan, 40-year-old housewife from Hong Kong who has sailed twice on Genting Dream. “My hands and feet are usually cold, with bad blood circulation. My muscles are also very tense from work. The hot stone massage helped with my blood circulation and muscle relaxation. It was part of a relaxing holiday at sea, to truly unwind and recharge.” A Himalayan salt stone massage is part of the Asian spa’s holistic health service, which has a quartz bed massage option. Heated crystal stones made from pink Himalayan salt are said to help stimulate circulation, improve sleep, reduce inflammation, calm the nervous system and reduce signs of ageing. Brown says wellness packages are especially popular with Asian women looking for beauty treatments a weight-loss- management programme, or wanting to relax. Elderly guests sometimes look for a health-management regimen or try out a new sport during a cruise. The packages come with an individual health and wellness consultation, healthy meals, physical analysis, skin consultation, daily fitness and leisure group activities, and use of saunas and a thermal pool. There is also meditation on offer, with a choice of tai chi, yoga o stretching. This October, the vessel had an “Yoga Academy at Sea” led by Hong Kong-based yoga expert Rosalie E’Silva. Dream Cruises doubled its capacity when its new vessel World Dream began cruising out of Hong Kong in mid-November.

Public Contract Law Journal ; Chicago Vol. 48, Iss. 1, (Fall 2018): 16-34. ProQuest document link ABSTRACT (ENGLISH) "18 By 2014, GDMA had been providing husbanding services to the U.S. Navy under contracts and purchase orders for over twenty-five years.19 While the Inspector General for the Department of Defense (DoD) concluded that GDMA's conspiracy to defraud the Navy stretched back more than twenty years, the earliest charges in the ongoing series of prosecutions relate back to 2006.20 In February of that year, Paul Simpkins, a contract specialist, helped GDMA obtain a $929,000 contract in exchange for a $50,000 bribe.21 In 2009, GDMA began receiving classified ship schedules from Cmdr. Jose Sanchez, the Seventh Fleet Deputy Logistics Officer.22 Sanchez also warned Francis when the Navy questioned GDMA bills.23 In 2010, the Deputy Director of Operations for Seventh Fleet Cmdr. Daniel Dusek, after a night in a hotel room with a prostitute at GDMA expense, used his influence to ensure the carrier USS Abraham Lincoln was directed to a GMDA-operated port.24 That same year, Naval Criminal Investigation Service (NCIS) Agent John Beliveau II warned Francis of an ongoing NCIS investigation into GDMA activities and suggested potential answers to questions that investigators might ask.25 In 2011, Cmdr. Sanchez arranged for GDMA to refuel the destroyer, the USS Mustin, at a cost of $1,000,000; twice as much as an available alternate method.26 In 2012, GDMA overbilled the Navy $500,000 to service the USS Abraham Lincoln.21 In August of that year, Cmdr.

  • The Wireless News
    The Wireless News © 2017 Bart Lee, K6VK For well over a century, radio has provided ships at sea and their well-off passengers with current news of the world (and at times, war news), market data and sports. From Marconi’s wireless telegraph to satellite delivery, the wireless news has been indispensible to voyagers of many sorts, especially on transoceanic routes. Steamship lines saw money to be made in providing this amenity. The technologies of commu- nications and of the printing of newspapers at sea paced each other. Many of these seagoing “newspapers” themselves tell nautical tales and social stories about their readers. But they also illumine their producers in Europe, North America, and Asia, including the shipping lines, the shoreside press, and the radiomen at sea. The radio technology evolved from long waves to satellites, and from spark sets to vacuum tube gear and then to modern solid-state circuits. A demand for current information at sea, far from its sources, created an important maritime revenue stream. The economics of news at sea and the higher socio-economic class of the passengers helped to further the development of the radio art. Introduction – Young Marconi should be preserved and a special edi- Started It tion of The Transatlantic Times was News for passengers and crew at sea, run off for the benefit of the Seamen’s sent through the ether by “wireless Fund at a dollar a copy. ‘Through the telegraphy,” started with Marconi, as courtesy of Mr. G.

  • Organizational Ethics Gone Wrong
    Organizational Ethics Gone Wrong by Jonathan Bailey and Ted Thomas at” Leonard Francis, owner of Glenn Defense Marine Asia and a good friend to the Navy leadership for over a decade, defrauded the U.S. Navy for $35 million dollars. The investigation that followed implicated scores of Navy personnel, including admirals, in the Fcorruption scandal. He bribed leaders and key personnel with money, prostitutes, expensive gifts, free vacations, and other things. In return for his “gifts,” he gained classified information about docking schedules and overcharged the Navy for his company’s services.1 The remarkable fact about all of this is not that it happened, but that the corruption was so rampant and almost became part of the accepted culture of the 7th fleet. With all of the fiscal oversight within government contracting and the organizational moral codes of the armed services, how could this happen? How could this many organizational leaders move from their ethical foundations and drift into unethical behavior, or even condone it by their inaction as they watched others participate in it? What causes an organization to drift from its espoused values to immoral and often criminal behaviors, and how can leaders prevent this from happening? The answers to these questions are important for organizational leaders to understand, and the answers carry significant moral and ethical implications for society.2 High profile leaders who fall from grace due to abuse of power, money, or sex issues get a lot of press—bad press. In many cases, others in the organization knew the leader was doing something Chaplain (Major) Jonathan Bailey is the Ethics Instructor at the U.S.
