The RAmparts 2500-CL is an evolution of Robert Allan Ltd.’s highly successful RAmparts 2500-W design, updated for Cheoy Lee’s marketing objectives. The new design is very flexible and allows for a multitude of options according to the client’s requirements. The first vessel is scheduled for delivery in early 2018. The hull and skeg of the RAmparts 2500-CL have evolved to provide improved manoeuvring and side stepping capabilities. As with all RAmparts series vessels, the hull has been optimized for maximum thrust and bollard pull, while maintaining excellent maneuvering and sea-keeping. A half-raised forecastle deck helps to keep the working deck safe and dry, while a gently rounded deck line in plan to ensure that the tug can safely and easily come alongside and remove itself from an attended ship at speed. Most importantly, the characteristic double chined stern unique to all Robert Allan Ltd. designs ensures that the tug can run astern at high speeds and maintain good control and directional stability. The tug can be adapted to a suit a wide variety of owner requirements including: Propulsion packages to achieve 50 tonne, 60 tonne, and 70 tonne bollard pull; Single or split drum forward winch; Optional aft winch; Optional Fi-Fi 1 systems (Fi-Fi 1/2 is standard); A variety of MLC compliant accommodation layouts Particulars of the RAmparts 2500-CL are as follows: Length overall: 25.40 m; Beam, moulded: 11.80 m; Depth, least moulded: 4.60 m; Maximum draft (overall): 4.63-5.10 m. The rule length has been kept less than the 24 m loadline and tonnage convention limits while optimizing for maximum hull volume, resulting in improved accommodation spaces and crew comfort. The vessel has been designed to LR Class requirements with the following notation: LR ✠ 100A1 TUG, ✠ LMC, ✠ UMS, IWS Tank Capacities at 98% are: Fuel oil: 91 m³; Potable water: 11 m³; Optional foam: 5 m³; Optional dispersant: 5 m³.

Bollard Pull: max 50 ton (Source: Bert de Ruiter) MALAYSIAN SHIPYARD LAUNCHES VERSATILE ASD TUG The azimuthing stern drive (ASD) format has become the norm for a great many tugs working in vessel assist around the world's ports. Many ASD tugs are dedicated ship- handling units with a single hawser winch forward. However, a number of owners, looking to maintain diversity of applications and markets are adding a towing winch aft as well. Malaysia's Sealink Marine Shipyards recently launched one of these versatile tugs at its Miri, Sarawak, yard. The 32 m x 11.8 m tug has a 5.2 m molded depth. Mounted forward it a MacGregor: MG-HAT/GDG22- 0115U02080 combination anchor and hawser winch with 150-ton braking. Mounted aft is a MacGregor: MG-HTW1-0218008048 towing winch, also with a 150-ton holding brake. Power is provided by a pair of Cummins QSK60M diesels each developing 2,300 HP at 1,900 RPM. These turn 2.4-m controllable pitch propellers on Rolls-Royce azimuthing drive units. This power gives the tug 4/28 18TH VOLUME, NO. 65 DATED 13 AUGUST 2017 a 57.56 ton bollard pull ahead, a 53.87 ton bollard pull astern and a 13.6 knot free running speed. M.T Chong, Cummins' Sales Manager in Miri, says that, when compared with medium speed engines, "The high speed Cummins QSK60M diesel engines have better response during maneuvering and the Cummins QSK60M, with integrated systems; allows for more free space in the engine room." A pair of 110-kW Cummins QSB7-DM-powered generators provides electrical power. For additional versatility the tug is fitted with a dispersant system to comply with MARPOL I, IV, V, and VI. External fi-fi capability is provided by two 141 cubic-meter-per-hour monitors supplied by a fire pump with power takeoff from the main engine. The one-man operation bridge has a 360- degree view along with extensive electronic navigation and communications equipment. Accommodation for up to eight crew members is provided in two one-person and three two-person cabins. All accommodations are centrally air-conditioned. For ship-handling the bow fendering includes D-fendering all round with W push bow and pilot boarding platform.

    Reform, Foreign Technology, and Leadership in the Russian Imperial and Soviet Navies, 1881–1941

    REFORM, FOREIGN TECHNOLOGY, AND LEADERSHIP IN THE RUSSIAN IMPERIAL AND SOVIET NAVIES, 1881–1941 by TONY EUGENE DEMCHAK B.A., University of Dayton, 2005 M.A., University of Illinois, 2007 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2016 Abstract This dissertation examines the shifting patterns of naval reform and the implementation of foreign technology in the Russian Empire and Soviet Union from Alexander III’s ascension to the Imperial throne in 1881 up to the outset of Operation Barbarossa in 1941. During this period, neither the Russian Imperial Fleet nor the Red Navy had a coherent, overall strategic plan. Instead, the expansion and modernization of the fleet was left largely to the whims of the ruler or his chosen representative. The Russian Imperial period, prior to the Russo-Japanese War, was characterized by the overbearing influence of General Admiral Grand Duke Alexei Alexandrovich, who haphazardly directed acquisition efforts and systematically opposed efforts to deal with the potential threat that Japan posed. The Russo-Japanese War and subsequent downfall of the Grand Duke forced Emperor Nicholas II to assert his own opinions, which vacillated between a coastal defense navy and a powerful battleship-centered navy superior to the one at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. In the Soviet era, the dominant trend was benign neglect, as the Red Navy enjoyed relative autonomy for most of the 1920s, even as the Kronstadt Rebellion of 1921 ended the Red Navy’s independence from the Red Army.

    The United States and the “Icebreaker Gap”

    SUGGESTED READINGS The United States and the “Icebreaker Gap” Compiled by P. Whitney Lackenbauer and Troy Bouffard At a time when many of us find ourselves working from home in social isolation, NAADSN has invited various academic subject matter experts to suggest core readings on topics related to North American and Arctic Defence and Security. The internet is filled with perspectives and opinions. These lists are intended to help direct policy shapers, practitioners, and academics to credible open access sources, available online free of charge, that reflect leading-edge research and thinking. The compilers of each list have been asked to select readings that are accessibly written (ie. they are not filled with excessive jargon), offer a diversity of viewpoints, and encourage critical thinking and debate. Melody Schreiber, “Trump calls for an accelerated expansion of the U.S. icebreaker fleet,” Arctic Today, 10 June 2020. President Donald Trump has called for a faster expansion of the U.S. icebreaker fleet than previously planned — including exploring the possibility of arming icebreakers and powering them with nuclear propulsion. In a memorandum directed to several U.S. agencies, Trump set a 2029 target for an expanded icebreaker fleet, and directed officials to consider leasing vessels, including from foreign entities, to ensure some new icebreakers could be available by 2022. The memo focused on national security and commercial activities. It also tasked officials with identifying at least four domestic and international bases for the new fleet. Sherri Goodman, a senior fellow at the Wilson Center and former U.S. deputy under-secretary of defense, said the document acknowledges “the icebreaker gap” in the U.S.

For a modern development of the operation in the northern seas it is very important to learn from the previous ice pilot experiences. PetroArctic project has gathered the information about Russian activities in the Arctic. First part of the research is a description of the five Russian Arctic Seas from the navigation point of view. Both common and unique features for each of the seas are under consideration. Trends in the development of the ships (materials and means of a stronger hull form) and navigation (preferable routes and time) have been deduced. Appreciable amount of written documentation and interviews with actual persons involved were processed. Information about extreme situations (ice drift and ice jet, icing and hummocking, ridging ice opening and closing) and special weather and ice conditions were collected from the sailors and ice pilots. Items of special interest were connected to the shipwrecks and other accidents. Data about vessel type, location and time of wrecks and damages, weather and ice conditions, description of events has been organized into a data base. For many accidents information on distinguished features and the behaviour of humans in the Arctic waters (reactions in stressful situations and reasons for deaths) has been collected.
