Engineering News September 15, 1974 AND ENGINEERING NEWS Mitsubishi Delivers 263,600-Dwt Tanker SEPTEMBER 15, 1974 To Texaco Subsidiary (SEE PAGE 7) SANKO STEAMSHIP CO., LTD. selects the System for 59 of its new ships The 139,000 dwt KAIKO MARU, one of a group of eight vessels of this size being equipped with the PrimaVac System. • It is with great pride that we serve this pro- gressive company whose fleet will include over 200 vessels totalling in excess of 20,000,000 dwt by the end of 1974. Our contribution to the performance of 59 of these ships is a system that converts any centrifugal pump to an auto- matic, self-priming pump, reducing pumping and stripping time over 30%. This system completely eliminates costly in- dependent stripping pumps and priming sys- tems. It is not dependent upon auxiliary controls, is easily installed and operates with minimum maintenance. The PrimaVac System is being installed on tankers of the Sanko Fleet ranging from 26,000 to 154,000 dwt. Other installations throughout the world have been made on tankers from 20,000 to 255,000 dwt with pump capacities from 625 to 20,000 gpm. Systems can be furnished for any pump size and capacity, with standard units available with discharge diameters of up to 30 inches.

    IMS LIST SANITATION COMPLIANCE AND ENFORCEMENT RATINGS OF INTERSTATE MILK SHIPPERS APRIL 2017 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Public Health Service Food and Drug Administration Rules For Inclusion In The IMS List Interstate milk shippers who have been certified by State Milk sanitation authorities as having attained the milk sanitation compliance ratings are indicated in the following list. These ratings are based on compliance with the requirements of the USPHS/FDA Grade A Pasteurized Milk Ordinance and Grade A Condensed and Dry Milk Products and Condensed and Dry Whey and were made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Methods of Making Sanitation Rating of Milk Supplies. *Proposal 301 that was passed at 2001 NCIMS conference held May 5-10, 2001, in Wichita, Kansas and concurred with by FDA states: "Transfer Stations, Receiving Stations and Dairy Plants must achieve a sanitation compliance rating of 90 or better in order to be eligible for a listing in the IMS List. Sanitation compliance rating scores for Transfer and Receiving Stations and Dairy Plants will not be printed in the IMS List". Therefore, the publication of a sanitation compliance rating score for Transfer and Receiving Stations and Dairy Plants will not be printed in this edition of the IMS List. THIS LIST SUPERSEDES ALL LISTS WHICH HAVE BEEN ISSUED HERETOFORE ALL PRECEDING LISTS AND SUPPLEMENTS THERETO ARE VOID. The rules for inclusion in the list were formulated by the official representatives of those State milk sanitation agencies who have participated in the meetings of the National Conference of Interstate Milk Shipments.

  • Ohio, Ex-Seatrain Ohio
    NATIONAL REGISTER ELIGIBILITY ASSESSMENT VESSEL: SS Ohio, ex-Seatrain Ohio Seatrain Puerto Rico, the first in a line of seven converted T2 tankers and sistership of the Ohio, underway circa late 1960s. Victory Ships and Tankers, L.A. Sawyer and W.H. Mitchell Vessel History The Seatrain Ohio was built in 1967 as a combination railway car/container‐carrying vessel for Seatrain Lines, Inc. of New York. It was constructed by recombining modified sections from three WWII T2 class tankers.1 The ship spent its active career on charter to the U.S. Military Sea Transportation Service (MSTS),2 which later became the Military Sealift Command (MSC). Engineer Graham M. Brush founded Seatrain Lines in 1928 to ferry railway cars loaded with goods between New Orleans, Louisiana and Havana, Cuba. The vessels were fitted with tracks and other special equipment so that railcars could move directly from the docks into the ships’ holds. The first vessel he adapted to carry railcars was a cargo ship. This vessel, the Seatrain New Orleans, carried loaded freight cars from New Orleans to Cuba for the first time in January of 1929. There were many advantages to this new service. It cut down on the amount of time 1 The T2 tanker, or T2, was an oil tanker constructed and produced in large quantities in the U.S. during World War II. The largest "navy oilers" at the time, nearly 500 of them, were built between 1940 and the end of 1945. 2 MSTS was a post-World War II combination of four predecessor government agencies that handled similar sealift functions.

  • T2 Tanker “Scotts Bluff”
    National Park Service Scotts Bluff U.S. Department of the Interior Scotts Bluff National Monument Nebraska T2 Tanker “Scotts Bluff” T2 Tanker The S.S. Scotts Bluff T2-SE-A1 tanker was the 67th out of the 153 T2 tankers built at the Kaiser Com- Scotts Bluff pany’s Swan Island Shipyards in Portland, Oregon. The tanker was named after the historic Scotts Bluff National Monument, a landmark on the Oregon Trail. The Scotts Bluff was completed in June 1944 and launched on October 5,1944. At the time, the Scotts Bluff was built in a record of 39 days. T2-SE-A1 By the winter of 1940-1941, the Nazis controlled all of the coast of Europe. German aircraft and Tankers submarines seemed likely to strangle Britain by destroying its shipping. Though U.S. ships were for- bidden to enter the cambat area by the Neutrality Act of 1939, President Franklin Roosevelt wanted to aid Britain while simultaneously strengthening the defense of the Western Hemisphere. He an- nounced his intention to create an emergency shipbuilding program by building 200 standard-type cargo ships, later known as “Liberty Ships”. The T2 tanker, Scotts Bluff, was one of the 481 T2-SE-A1 tankers built at four different shipyards. The T2 tanker was an oil tanker constructed and produced in large number in the United States dur- ing World War II. These were the largest “Navy Oilers” at the time and were constructed between 1940 and 1945. During that time, the average production time from” laying of the keel” to “fitting out” was 70 days.

  • The Design and Service Experience of the Polar Endeavour Class Tankers
    The Design and Service Experience of the Polar Endeavour Class Tankers Robert A. Levine1, (M) SNAME, (M) IMarEST, C.Eng., Manager Engineering Integration & Naval Architecture, ConocoPhillips Marine ABSTRACT The Polar Endeavour (Millennium) Class Tankers, represent the first U. S. flag crude oil carriers designed and built for the Alaskan Trade in compliance with the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA90). These vessels represent the start of a revolution in design for American crude carriers. Not only are they fitted with double hulls, which are deeper than required, but also they are fitted with twin independent engine rooms, and twin rudders. They are the first vessels to be classed R2- S+ and NIBS under the American Bureau of Shipping’s (ABS) Guidelines for Redundant Propulsion Systems and Navigation Integrated Bridge Systems. The vessels meet the requirements for Annex VI of MARPOL for air emissions, and are painted with tin free (TBT) anti-foul paints. This paper describes the design development process used and the unique and innovated design, which resulted.
