The contract is for two ships to 5Distribution : daily to 40.750+ active addresses 24-11-2018 Page 2 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2018 – 328 be made for CSSC Carnival Cruise Shipping Ltd, a joint venture established to place orders. The agreement also gives the joint venture the option to order four additional China-built ships. The first liner will be 323.6 meters long and 37.2 meters wide. With height of 72.2 meters, the 16-story cruise ship will have a variety of entertainment and recreational facilities. Apart from a dining room and performance and amusement centers, it will be equipped with a shopping plaza. The 135,550-ton ship will have more than 2,000 cabins. Among them will be 34 suites, 287 seaview rooms and 969 with balconies. It will b able to accommodate up 5,260 passengers and will sail at a maximum speed of 41.85 kilometers per hour after an official launch in September 2023. The second ship will be delivered in December 2024. The two will operate for the new Chinese cruise brand under CSSC Carnival Cruise Shipping Ltd, according to a memorandum of understanding signed by Fincantieri, CSSC and Carnival Corp in February 2017. Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding is aiming to produce three to four cruise ships a year, according to its chief technical officer Tao Ying. The shipbuilder, based in the China (Shanghai) Pilot Free Trade Zone, will start construction of the country’s first cruise ship next year after a year long overhaul of a shipyard. “All-around preparatory work will kick off next year. As cruise shipbuilding is so much different from the cargo ships or container ships that we’ve built before, we have to transform our factory and convert the production flow,” said Tao. The ship will be a floating “paradise” on the sea, which is even mor difficult than developing an aircraft carrier, said He Qixing, manager of Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding’s cruise department. Shanghai is expected to handle 25.7 million cruise ship passengers by 2022, according to a report by the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences. “Shanghai has made great progress in the past decade in developing th cruise economy, bucking the global trend when this relatively new type of tourism was hit by the economic downturn,” said Li Xiaonian, director of the academy’s Maritime Silk Road Research Center. The biggest cruise port in Asia and the fourth largest in the world, Shanghai saw 512 cruise ships depart or dock at its three ports last year, receiving 2.97 million visitors, 43.3 percent of China’s total. Global cruise giants including Carnival Corp, Royal Caribbean and MSC Cruises have made Shanghai a port of call. “The Chinese cruise market saw soaring growth of similar products by almost all global cruise operators trying to expand their business here,” said Cheng Juehao, deputy professor at Shanghai Maritime University and deputy head of the Shanghai International Shipping Institute’s Cruise Economy Research Center. Royal Caribbean Cruise Ltd, the world’s second-largest cruise line, is to operate its Spectrum of the Seas and Oasis of the Seas liners in China. Spectrum of the Seas will be the biggest and most expensive cruise ship in Asia. Costa Cruises, an arm of US-based Carnival Corp, plans to bring two tailor-made ships in 2019 and 2020 to China, according to Mario Zanetti, president of Costa Group Asia. The company introduced cruising to China in 2006 and currently holds 26 percent of China’s cruise market. MSC Cruise, the industry leader in the Mediterranean, South Africa an Brazil, is to operate its MSC Bellissima cruise ship in China, and Genting Group will deploy two 204,000-ton cruise ships that can accommodate 9,500 passengers at the Shanghai port in 2021.

THORDON HELPS ENSURE SPARTACUS IS A CUT ABOVE THE REST The world’s most powerful LNG-fuelled cutterhead suction dredger (CSD), SPARTACUS, will enter service with water- lubricated Composite cutterhead shaft and intermediate ladder bearings from Thordon Bearings. When delivered next summer to Belgian dredging and reclamation specialist DEME Group from Royal IHC’s shipyard in Kinderdijk, The Netherlands, Spartacus will be capable of cutting harder soils and at much faster speeds than it could previously manage. 5Distribution : daily to 40.750+ active addresses 24-11-2018 Page 3 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2018 – 328 It will also be the first dredger capable of operations in water depths of up to 45m (147.6ft). Presently, 35m (115ft) is the maximum water depth in which dredgers can operate. While the self-propelled CSD features several environmentally-safe and energy-efficient innovations, it is Thordon’s robust and long life Composite bearings that have contributed to the vessel’s optimised cutterhead performance, speed and reliability. Bart Bakker, Managing Director of Sandfirden, Thordon’s Netherlands-based distributor and engineering partner, said: “It is without doubt DEME’s experience of Thordon’s self- lubricating Composite bearing on the 123.8m (406ft) cutter suction dredger, D’Artagnan, that resulted in us securing this milestone order. When the D’Artagnan’s intermediate ladder bearings were removed for inspection in 2014 after nine years of operation, they showed practically no wear and were not replaced.” For Spartacus, Thordon supplied Royal IHC with four Composite intermediate ladder bearings for shaft diameters of 1400mm (55in) – the largest diameter Composite bearings ever produced by the Canadian company – and a single Composite cutterhead bearing for a 1050mm (41.3in) shaft diameter. George Morrison, Thordon Bearings’ Regional Manager, Western Europe, Africa and Aus/NZ, said: “We are delighted that DEME Group has returned to Thordon with an order to equip this innovative and important vessel. The through-life performance of our Composite cutterhead shaft and intermediate ladder bearings not only deliver longevity but compared to traditional arrangements, operational costs are much lower due to the longer periods between replacement, less downtime and the elimination of grease.” Thordon has been supplying Composite dredger bearings to the sector for 35-years. In addition to Spartacus and D’Artagnan other dredger references include Artemis (959mm or 37.8in shaft), JFJ de Nul (950mm or 37.4in shaft), Al Sadr (800mm or 31.5in shaft), Al Mariah (717mm or 28.2in) shaft), and Huta-9 (800mm or 31.5in shaft). Recently, Thordon’s cutterhead bearings have been delivered to China’s Jiangsu Haixin Shipping Heavy Industry Co for installation to a 6500m3 dredger newbuilding for an undisclosed owner. The vessel will take up dredging duties in the South China and East China Seas.

The money is coming from the Army Corps’ work plan, which provides funding for waterway navigation and other projects in addition to 5Distribution : daily to 40.750+ active addresses 24-11-2018 Page 4 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2018 – 328 what is included in President Donald Trump’s annual budget. This year’s funding adds to previous Army Corps disbursements of $49 million and $17.5 million over the past two fiscal years. Charleston Harbor deepening was the only South Carolina project included in the work plan. “This is truly one of the most important infrastructure projects that our state has undertaken and to keep that funding on track is really paramount,” said Barbara Melvin, senior vice president of operations and terminals for the State Ports Authority, which operates the Port of Charleston.

While the project has Use already reached a positive FID, and is clearly a national priority – we think it’s worth watching whether any squabble over the ultimate funding source ends up delaying its operational timeline (which is already ambitious). The primary options appeared to be (1) the state budget (absent), or (2) funding from the ~$124B National Wealth Fund, which appears to be a more complicated and competitive process (below). Considering that Arctic 2 is being used as a fulcrum to revitalize/create local content industries - For including the Zvvezda shipyard for the required LNG carriers (Arc-7s or similar - which cost ~$350MM each in Korea) and some local fabrication of key equipment, we ultimately expect continued sovereign support.

  • Maritime Shipping on the Northern Sea Route: Need for Greater Emphasis on Mutual Cooperation and a Non-Negotiable Safety Culture
    SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT UDC: [347.79:001.895](98)(045) DOI: 10.37482/issn2221-2698.2020.39.5 Maritime Shipping on the Northern Sea Route: Need for Greater Emphasis on Mutual Cooperation and a Non-Negotiable Safety Culture. Part I © Jawahar BHAGWAT, Ph.D. Arts (History), researcher E-mail: [email protected] Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M.V. Lomonosov, Arkhangelsk, Russia Abstract. The opening of the Northern Sea Route (NSR) due to the melting of the Arctic sea ice ushers in many opportunities. The International Maritime Organization has introduced several regulations for ship- ping and the training of seafarers. The Northern Sea Route has several challenges concerning the infrastruc- ture and the harsh weather conditions. The recent incident on board the Viking Sky cruise liner was a re- minder of such challenges. The Norwegian authorities responded admirably, and the Search and Rescue operation was conducted with the necessary coordinated effort in the shortest possible time. Other inci- dents along the NSR and increasing ship casualties in the Arctic region have been analyzed concerning the adequacy of existing regulations. The author’s opinion is that these incidents bring out a need to examine the adequacy of the Polar code, infrastructure along the NSR, and the current state of Search and Rescue (SAR). From a practical point of view, the Norwegian experience would be of interest to all Arctic states and the IMO. The evolution of the Polar Code and the challenges in implementation are discussed. The article puts forth several recommendations for improving cooperation and safety to make the NSR a viable alterna- tive route.

  • Hydrographic Society Russia
    ARTICLE Hydrographic Society Russia 20th Annual General Meeting As in the past, the 2013 AGM took place in April. 60 HSR members and several guests were present. HSR president Nikolay Neronov reported on the Society activities of the past year and he reminded all those present that the HSR has already operated for more than 20 years. It plays a unifying role for those experts and organ​isations for whom the destiny of Russian Hydrography is not indifferent. This was shown by the both scientific and practical conference held in June 2012 and the recent memorial event for general Andrey I. Vilkitsky. The report by the Revision committee was unanimously approved. Then Boris Zolotajkin mentioned the 30th anniversary of the Antarctic expedition by the Soviet oceanographic vessels Admiral Vladimirsky and Faddey Bellinshausen and he handed a gift to the Society - a memorable bronze medal which was was issued in honour of this navigation. Mr. Evgeny G. Drukaryov told briefly about his grand​father hydrographer E.S. Gernet ​(1873-1943) and presented a book about him. Vasily Provorov reported on the lastest events involving HSR participation; the inspection of vessels sunk during the Second World War in the Finish Gulf near Gogland Island. Ratmir Berkutov noted that the three-volume edition of The Annals of the Russian Navy in which he and HSR members Vitaly Korjakin and Sergey Valchuk participated, has been presented the ‘Best Book of the Year’ award by the Association of publishers. Grigory Akulov criticised the HSR Council which, in his opinion, had not started organising a memorable expedition to Severnaya Zemlya, devoted to the 100th nniversary of its discovery.

  • 22 IAHR International Symposium on Ice Floating Ice Induced Ship Casualties
    22nd IAHR International Symposium on Ice Singapore, August 11 to 15, 2014 Floating Ice Induced Ship Casualties Nataliya Marchenko The University Centre in Svalbard, Longyearbyen, Norway State Oceanographical Institute, Moscow, Russia Postbox 156. Longyearbyen N-9171, UNIS [email protected] It is very important to analyze sea-ice-induced ship casualties because transport activity at high latitudes is growing. A significant search is underway for an Arctic alternative to the southern (Suez) route from Europe to Asia. However, despite global warming and forecasts of an ice-free Arctic, ice conditions are still rather difficult. The Vilkitsky Strait was closed by ice for almost the entire navigation season 2013. Several accidents occurred, including the rupture of a tanker by an ice floe, nipping and overwintering last year. The frequency of ship casualties in the Polar regions is much smaller than in the world ocean. But due to a low self-purification capacity of Arctic and Antarctic nature and harsh weather conditions, we should try to avoid any type of failure and minimize the risks involved. An analysis of ship accidents caused by sea ice in the Russian Arctic over the previous century (Marchenko, 2012) shows that a majority of casualties were related to floating ice. In significant number of cases, the accidents could be avoided if captains took into consideration sea ice properties, distinguished between “strong ice” (multiyear ice, icebergs) and “soft” first year ice. In this article, several cases on serious casualties with floating ice are presented. These cases include incidents with holing of the icebreaker Admiral Lazarev (1965, East Siberian Sea), the cruise ship Maxim Gorkiy (1989, Greenland Sea) and the tanker Nordvik (2013, Kara Sea); sinking of the adventure vessel Explorer (2007, South Ocean) and freighter Nina Sagaydak (1983, Chukchi Sea), nipping and drift of several vessels in Okhotsk Sea (2010-2011, 2013-14,) and Akademik Shokalskiy (2013-14, South Ocean).
