Finnlines Oy (Finnlines) has announced that the first half of 2015 showed a "continuing strong countercyclical performance" for the company, crediting ship efficiency measures as one reason for the company's first six month result of €16.4 million ($17.93 million).The company posted a first quarter result of €15.8 million ($17.27 million), compared to €14.7 million ($16.07 million) during the same period in 2014, saying that the figures are a strong indication that Finnlines has proactively taken the "right measures" to consolidate their market position. Finnlines says that it is focusing on strengthening its long-term strategic position through the acquisition of three vessels, as well as further investment in environmental technology. "We expect our profitability to improve over the previous year due to successful implementation of our Investment Programme which enables us to use cheaper Distribution : daily to 33.000+ active addresses 06-08-2015 Page 2 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2015 – 219 IFO fuel compared to more expensive MGO and due to successful implementation of our Turnaround Programme which improves our operational efficiency," said Emanuele Grimaldi, CEO and President of Finnlines. "We will complete our €100 million Environmental Technology Investment Programme by installing scrubbers to remaining vessels and also by investing to re-blade and silicon-paint hulls of several of our vessels for better fuel economy." The FINNWAVE navigating the Westerschelde Photo : Willem Kruit (c) Commenting on the scrubber installation, Finnlines said "the new system has substantially improved the vessels' relative propulsion efficiency and, as a result, reduced their fuel consumption."Overall for the first six months of 2015, Finnlines reported a 6.7 percent decrease in revenue, with €252 million ($275.51 million), compared to €270.1 million ($295.3 million) during the same period in 2014.Grimaldi, commenting on the decrease, said "regardless of 6.7 percent turnover decrease - due to macroeconomic conjuncture, bunker surcharge reduction, vessel maintenance, retrofits and tonnage adjustment - we have been able to adjust our operations to be more cost efficient and therefore more competitive in current recessionary business environment prevailing in Finland." "Finnlines was one of the strongest companies in 2014 among the listed companies in the shipping sector when measured by total return to shareholders and by financial performance and we are striving to improve our operational and financial performance," added Grimaldi.On Wednesday, it was reported that Finnlines was one of five ferry operators to win part of €48 million in EU grants for scrubber projects. Ship & Bunker News Team Class 1 CoC (unlimited) and Master Mariners able to gain Chartered Status The Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST) is supporting the professional development of seafarers by mapping Class One Certificates of Competency (unlimited) and Master Mariner Certificates to a Chartered Status qualification.For individuals holding IMO white-listed certificates of competency, those with an unlimited Class 1 ticket and appropriate experience will be able to apply for Chartered Marine Engineer (CMarEng) registration and Master Mariners with suitable experience can obtain Chartered Marine Technologist (CMarTech) status.David Henderson, Professional Development Manager & Registrar for the IMarEST commented: “The IMarEST has been eager to recognise the professional experience, through life training and continuous professional development of seafarers and to allow for both seagoing engineering and deck officers to gain a level of professional recognition appropriate for their responsibilities and technical knowledge.”The IMarEST, as a licenced body of the Engineering Council, is allowed to issue Engineering Registers, but also has its own Royal Charter allowing it to recognise and award Technology Registers to those who do not have an engineering background.Source: INSTITUTE OF MARINE ENGINEERING, SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY (IMarEST) Distribution : daily to 33.000+ active addresses 06-08-2015 Page 3 DAILY COLLECTION OF MARITIME PRESS CLIPPINGS 2015 – 219 The URAG ELBE inbound for Rotterdam towing the AMT COMMANDER Photo : Willem Holtkamp - http://fotomaker.jalbum.net/FOTOMAKER/ © HVAC Fan Room Solution In the offshore industry time is always of the essence. Vessel owners make it a priority to keep the necessary yard visits as short as possible. To contribute to this short time priority Heinen & Hopman has developed a containerized fan room that can be completely pre-fabricated and tested before delivery to the vessel. Due to this design, installation time onboard can be shortened tremendously. A modified cargo or offshore certified container is used as the base for this fan room. The size of this container may vary from 10ft up to 40ft in high cube execution. The choice highly depends on the needed space to fit all required equipment and is influenced by the available space onboard. For the engineering and design of the containerized fan room, a specialized team of HVAC engineers with lots of experience in the oil & gas industry is deployed. In close cooperation with the customer a 100% customized design is being created to suit all necessary requirements. This design process also includes the possibility for the engineers to visit the vessel for a board survey. Goal is to reach a design that is completely plug & play. After installation onboard, the fan room only needs to be hooked up to the duct systems and electrical power system. The containerized fan room design includes air handling units with conditioned airflows up to 40000m3/hr. Cooling capacities are available up to 800kW and are available in chilled water or direct expansion execution. Heating is normally executed with electrical heaters. Energy saving applications such as heat pump and heat recovery wheels can easily be integrated in the design. The firs t pre-fabricated 40ft high cube fan room has already been delivered to Paragon Offshore and was installed on the B391 jack-up drilling rig. This containerized fan room was placed on top of the accommodation and replaced the old fan rooms inside and was executed with two air handling units, two air-cooled chiller units and one dual pump skid. All ducting, chilled water piping, cables & control for a complete working system integrated in the container. Some of the integrated features are heat recovery wheels, 100% redundant cooling capacity and dual supply fans. The container itself was customized to fit some onboard restrictions and was executed with a weather tight door and service access hatch in the side of the container.

  • “Middle Power” and the Recent Turkish Foreign Policy Activism Hasan Basri Yalçın*
    Afro Eurasian Studies, Vol. 1, Issue 1, Spring 2012, 195-213 The Concept of “Middle Power” and the Recent Turkish Foreign Policy Activism Hasan Basri Yalçın* Abstract This study examines the concept of “middle power” and the possi- ble applicability of this concept within the framework of Turkish foreign policy. An increasing number of publications on the sub- ject of Turkish foreign policy attempt to frame it by using different characterizations. One of these is related to the concept of “middle power.” The new activism of Turkey in its immediate neighborhood is generally considered as an indication of a transformation in its foreign policy orientation and behavior. As a contribution to this kind of effort, this study tries to develop a comprehensive definition of the term of “middle power” and explores how this fits in with the so called “new Turkish foreign policy.” It argues that Turkey, as a regionally significant actor that permanently accumulates material power capabilities, has tried to gain a central role in the dominant international system through its role as a middle power. The study further claims that the new definition of Turkey by foreign policy elites as a “pivotal” state clearly fits the expectations of a state with ‘middle power status’. However, it also highlights that the desire of Turkish foreign policy elites is not independent from the material power capabilities that the state possesses. Recent increase in Turk- ish material capabilities constitutes a significant factor in shaping Turkey’s foreign policy desires. Keywords: Middle Power, Turkish Foreign Policy, Pro-Active Diplomacy. * İstanbul Sabahattin Zaim University, Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sci- ences, Department of International Relations, Halkalı, İstanbul, Tukey.
