The industry’s recognition of DNV GL’s expertise as a class in this field is reflected in the order intake, he said, noting there was also an increasing trend towards “LNG-ready” and that a larger variety of alternative fuels were being explored, including ethane, battery and hybrid vessels.

Marine Service GmbH is a marine consultancy company and turn key provider based in Hamburg, a European shipping industry centre. “We‘ve been providing specialised maritime solutions for over half a century. Our services reflect the challenges of the maritime industry: currently, ever stricter regulations as well as growing demands on effectiveness,” said Michael Kraack, managing director of Marine Service. At SMM, the Marine Service team will present its large portfolio of consulting services and experience gained in successful projects in the areas of LNG as fuel and offshore converter platforms.

LNG as fuel: expertise in consulting and technical know-how The shipping industry is coping with the more stringent regulatory environment imposed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO).

Bureau Veritas, a global leader in testing, inspection and certification, has carried out risk analysis and HAZID (hazard identification) studies and also provided classification for the LNG-hybrid power barge that will begin operation in the port of Ham- burg in October. The classification society presented the project to the public during a press conference on Tuesday at SMM.

ZF Marine Friedrichshafen AG, the marine propulsion systems division of the ZF Group, announced at SMM on Tuesday the introduction of the new ZF 3300 PTI transmission.

Designed to be powered through standard diesel engine input, or via an alternate power source through a power take-in (PTI), this new transmission brings a hybrid-ready solution suitable for all types of high-speed pleasure and commercial applications. The ZF 3300 PTI can be integrated into a wide variety of hybrid vessel propulsion solutions. The transmission is rated up to 1,940 kW (2,600hp) at 2,450rpm, offering a wide range of basic ratios from 3.00 to 5.00 (including PTI ratio with spur gear up to 16.25). As with most ZF marine transmissions, the ZF 3300 PTI can be configured to any application in the appropriate power range, The new ZF 3300 PTI transmission in Hall A3 Photo: BONUM /Krüger for both commercial and fast craft vessels.

The new helicopter refueling systems PFM (pump filter module) and RM (refuelling module) are on display at Alfons Haar’s stand at SMM in Hamburg.

The new series of modules comes with an extremely compact design and perfect accessi- bility, the Hamburg-based company said. The control cabinet is completely incorporated to reduce space requirements further. For com- fortable integration, 3D STEP files are available. Wiring between modules and tanks is reduced and simplified by using the intrinsi- cally safe PreciCONTROL fieldbus, developed by Alfons Haar. Communication with the onboard IMCS (integrated monitor and control system) is provided by MODBUS RS422/485 or hardwired signal contacts.

As the Austrian company says, the implementation of system, transport, and ma- chine engineering is no longer conceivable without the use of automation systems. Increasing demands on productivity, all the way to 24/7 availability, require automation systems to offer solutions for high availability applications as well as maximum reliability. Effective measures against network, sensor, and wiring faults, as well as statistically rare component failure, are also needed.
