The steepness of the line is typi- cal to the ice type, and the level of the line depends on ice thickness. The more variation in thickness, the steeper the line. Fig. 1 compares level and ridged ice, and it is seen that during longer periods larger loads occur in ridged ice even though it would be less thick. A decrease in speed then reduces the level of the line without changing the steepness. REFERENCE: Lensu, M. 2002. Ice navigation assisted by short-term ice-load monitoring.

  • Konseptutvikling På Englandsruten
    Konseptutvikling på Englandsruten Hvordan utforme passasjeropplevelsen på Englandsruten som grunnlag for økonomisk lønnsom drift? av Kaj Stokstad (5) Concept development onboard the former ferry service between Bergen – Stavanger and Newcastle Turisme og reiseliv, bachelorstudium RE694 2010 Forord Denne bacheloroppgaven utgjør den avsluttende delen av bachelorstudiet i turisme og reiseliv ved Høgskolen i Sogn og Fjordane våren 2010. Oppgaven tar for seg konseptutvikling på Englandsruten, ferjen som gikk mellom Bergen- Stavanger og Newcastle og som ble lagt ned høsten 2008, gjennom å vurdere eksisterende og nye konsepter ombord på Englandsruten ut i fra ønskene, behovene og forventningene til potensielle, fremtidige kundesegmenter på Englandsruten. Jeg vil takke alle som har som har kommet med innspill til oppgaven underveis. Særlig vil jeg takke Kristin Løseth som gjennom å fortelle meg om opplevelsesøkonomien formet oppgaven, og min far for gode råd og korrekturlesning. En takk også til alle dem som tok seg tid til å delta på undersøkelsen min. Samtidig vil jeg og takke Ståle Brandshaug for god veiledning og hjelp med oppgaven. Hans kontaktnett har vært uvurderlig. Kaj Stokstad Sogndal, mai 2010 2 Sammendrag Oppgaven svarer på problemstillingen ”Hvordan utforme passasjeropplevelsen på Englandsruten som grunnlag for økonomisk lønnsom drift?” gjennom å ta for seg konseptutvikling på Englandsruten og vurdere eksisterende og nye konsepter ombord på Englandsruten ut i fra ønskene, behovene og forventningene til potensielle, fremtidige kundesegmenter på Englandsruten. Dette med det mål å kunne argumentere for å gjenåpne ruten med et forbedret konsept som er mer i harmoni med nåværende og fremtidige markeders ønsker, behov og forventninger, og dermed bidra til at ruten blir vedvarende økonomisk lønnsom gjennom en betydelig forbedret kapasitetsutnyttelse ombord.

  • Puredry Silja Case Story.Pdf 2016-10-25 267 Kb
    Silja Symphony reduces fuel consumption by 2% with PureDry Silja Line, Finland Case story The MS Silja Symphony is a 58,377 GRT cruise ferry operated by Silja Line, a part of the Tallink Group. In November 2010, the ferry was equipped with Alfa Laval PureDry, a new high-speed separator with the capability to recover reusable fuel from waste fuel oil. Delivered in 1991, the Silja Symphony has four Wärtsilä-Vasa 9R46 diesel engines for propulsion, rated at 32.5 MW, and auxiliary engines rated at 7.3 MW. In service on the Helsinki-Stockholm route, the ferry consumes some 50 tonnes of fuel oil every 24 hours, sailing approxi- mately 50% of the time. Since PureDry was installed on board, 2% of that fuel is recovered and reused. Waste fuel recovery with PureDry When using PureDry, waste fuel oil from settling and day tank bottom drains, fuel oil filters, fuel oil separators and the diesel engines is separated from other waste oils and collected in a dedicated waste fuel oil tank. PureDry recovers the fuel oil fraction © Marko Stampehl of this waste fuel oil, returning it to the fuel oil bunker tank. The process reduces the waste fuel oil Reclaiming quality fuel Not surprisingly, this has had a real volume by 99%. On the Silja Symphony, Mats Göras, Chief Engineer of the Silja financial impact. “With bunker oil at just 13-15 kg of “super-dry” solids are Symphony, is clearly impressed by today’s prices, this has meant a significant produced every 24 hours. These can be PureDry’s performance.
