GE has been providing aeroderivative marine gas turbines since the 1950s and has amassed extensive experience serving military and commercial ship applications. GE offers a wide range of engine sizes backed by continual infusion of new technologies to meet ever-changing customer needs. GE’s design-for-maintenance approach is supported by global service experts, ensuring these engines remain the market’s most reliable gas turbines with the lowest lifecycle costs. Our LM marine gas turbines provide superior availability for diverse military applications including United States Navy shock-tested designs and lower shock requirements. These reliable engines are ideal for military ships ranging from 200 to 60,000 tons displacement with applications on patrol boats, corvettes, frigates, destroyers, cruisers, aircraft carriers, amphibious warfare ships, and supply and sealift ships. GE marine gas turbines also have been used on commercial ships since the 1990s. These compact, lightweight engines have the capability to burn a wide variety of fuels, as well as the ability to meet existing and proposed environmental regulations. These features make GE marine gas turbines ideal for LNG tankers, container ships, power barges, cruise ships and ferries. Our COmbined Gas turbine Electric and Steam (COGES) system has the lowest annual operating cost of any propulsion system. The marine gas turbine family shares extensive pedigree with GE’s reliable industrial aeroderivative turbines. There are over 5,000 aeroderivative gas turbines operating worldwide, logging more than 150 million hours in marine, power generation, and oil and gas settings.

  • This Is a Daily Compilation of Media Articles Concerning the Covid-19 Impact to the Global Cruise Industry
    1 THIS IS A DAILY COMPILATION OF MEDIA ARTICLES CONCERNING THE COVID-19 IMPACT TO THE GLOBAL CRUISE INDUSTRY. Please note this isn’t a complete listing of media articles but a snapshot only. 29 March, 2020: PASSENGERS TRANSFERRED FROM VIRUS-STRICKEN CRUISE SHIP OFF PANAMA Passengers on a virus-stricken cruise liner stranded off Central America were transferred to another ship Saturday, after the US-bound vessel was given permission to pass through the Panama Canal. The Zaandam had been stuck in the Pacific Ocean since March 14 after dozens of the 1,800 people on board reported flu-like symptoms and several South American ports refused to let it dock. The ship's Dutch owner Holland America said Friday four passengers had died and two more had tested positive for COVID- 19. Panama on Saturday reversed its decision to block the Zaandam from its canal, and said it would be allowed to pass "to provide humanitarian help." Another ship, the Rotterdam, has since arrived off the coast of Panama from San Diego carrying food, medical staff, testing kits, medicine and food for the beleaguered vessel. Passengers showing no signs of the virus were ferried from the Zaandam to the Rotterdam on Saturday, a French tourist told AFP by telephone. "It's like emptying a bathtub with a teaspoon," she said. "The boats can hold about 100 people, and they are putting about half in at a time. That's why it's going slowly." The Zaandam cruise liner left Buenos Aires on March 7 and was supposed to arrive two weeks later at San Antonio, near Santiago in Chile.

  • Worldwide Equipment Guide Chapter 1: Littoral Systems
    Dec 2016 Worldwide Equipment Guide Chapter 1: Littoral Systems TRADOC G-2 ACE Threats Integration Ft. Leavenworth, KS Distribution Statement: Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited. Worldwide Equipment Guide Chapter 1: Littoral This chapter focuses on vessels for use in littoral ("near the shore") operations. Littoral activities include the following: - "brown water" naval operations in coastal waters (out to as far as 200+ km from shore), - amphibious landing operations or port entry (opposed and unopposed), - coastal defense actions (including patrols, engaging enemy, and denying entry) - operations in inland waterways (rivers, lakes, etc), and - actions in large marshy or swampy areas. There is no set distance for “brown water.” Littoral range is highly dependent on specific geography at any point along a coast. Littoral operations can be highly risky. Forces moving in water are often challenged by nature and must move at a slow pace while exposed to enemy observation and fires. Thus littoral forces will employ equipment best suited for well-planned operations with speed, coordination, and combined arms support. Littoral forces will employ a mix of conventional forces, specialized (naval, air, and ground) forces and equipment, and civilian equipment which can be acquired or recruited for the effort. Each type of action may require a different mix of equipment to deal with challenges of terrain, vulnerability, and enemy capabilities. Coastal water operations can utilize naval vessels that can operate in blue water. Naval battle groups for deep water also operate in littoral waters. Submarines and anti-submarine warfare (ASW) systems conduct missions in littoral waters. But challenges of shallow waters and shoreline threats also require use of smaller fast-attack boats, patrol craft, cutters, etc.

  • Hellenic Armed Forces Greece Has Embarked Since 2019 in an Effort to Revamp Its Armed Forces Addressing Needs That Have Remaine
    Hellenic Armed Forces Greece has embarked since 2019 in an effort to revamp its armed forces addressing needs that have remained unattended for years. The first move that Athens made was the procurement of 18 Rafale fighters (12 used and 6 new) that will be delivered starting in mid-2021. Along with this it became obvious that the ships of the Hellenic Navy were showing their age, and new ships (frigates) were needed while a mid-life upgrade for the MEKO 200 frigates was also desperately needed. This is obviously the costliest of the programs being contemplated by the Hellenic Armed Forces. So far the suitors for the new frigates are: France with the digital frigates "Belh @ ra", the USA with the MMSC, Germany with four new A-200 frigates or two plus two A-200 and A-300, Dutch with the "Karel Doorman" (s.s. probably as the intermediate solution) and a possible new Onega class ships, Italy with the FREMM, and Spain with the F-110 Navantia. Germans offer for additional two type 214 submarines. Greece already has 4 type 214 submarines This in turn again brings forth the need to speed up the processes for the selection and acquisition of heavy torpedoes for the Type 214 submarines. The Navy sees this as a top pririty while the willingness to procure torpedoes is reiterated as often as possible. Both the Air Force and the Navy are looking for sub-strategic weapons to equip the new and upgraded aircraft and the new frigates. Army programs Although the interest is concentrated in the programs of the Air Force (PA) and the Navy (PN) with a focus on the acquisition of the 18 Rafale F3R as well as the four frigates, the Greek Army (ES) is also making efforts to launch armament programs.

  • Timing Is Everything
    Chapter 2 The ANZACS, Part 1—The Frigate that wasn’t a Frigate As long ago as 1954 the cost of replacement frigates had been an issue. Almost a quarter of a century later, the 1978 Defence Review made the observation that `the high costs of acquiring and maintaining modern naval ships and systems compounds the difficulty of reaching decisions which will adequately provide for New Zealand's future needs at sea'.1 Indeed `extensive enquiries to find a replacement for HMNZS Otago made it clear that the cost of a new frigate had gone beyond what New Zealand could afford'.2 This observation led to the serious consideration of converting the Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) to a coast guard service, but the Government rejected the notion on the basis that, although a coast guard could carry out resource protection tasks, it would mean the end of any strategic relationship with our ANZUS Treaty partners, and the RNZN would no longer be able to operate as a military force. The Chief of Naval Staff, Rear Admiral Neil D. Anderson, said that the New Zealand Government's commitment to maintaining a professional fighting navy was `a magnificent shot in the arm for everyone in the Navy'.3 The Government remained committed to a compact multi-purpose navy, and calculated that a core operational force of three ships would be the minimum necessary force. These ships were to be the Leander-class frigates HMNZS Waikato and HMNZS Canterbury (commissioned in 1966 and 1971 respectively), and the older Type 12 frigate HMNZS Otago.

VOL. 53, NO. 1, ISSUE 219 - NEW SERIES 2020 Tambua (3,566/1938) arriving Sydney July 1963 (J.Y.Freeman) Tambua was built for the Colonial Sugar Refining Co.
