Hawawezi shindana na taifa kubwa, reli pekee inawatoa jasho baada ya kuingia kichwa kichwaEngineering for a 1,200 passenger vessel for Tanzania
31/05/2019 (Tanzania)
SENER has contracted the basic design of a 1,200-passenger ferry for Tanzanian shipping line Kampuni ya Huduma za Meli (Marine Services Co., Ltd.) to the Korean company GAS Entec.
The scope of the project to be developed by SENER includes conceptual and classification engineering, and is going to be developed with the FORAN System, the CAM/CAD/CAE software for ship design and construction developed by SENER. The design belongs to a specialty well known by SENER due to the recent references of passengers and Ro-Ro vessels, among them the 1,500 passenger ferry for Viking Line or the 1,200 passenger ferry ‘Mapinduzi II' for Posco Plantec.
With its 90-meter length, this new ferry will be the largest vessel on the African Great Lakes, and sail on Lake Victoria linking ports in Tanzania, Uganda and Kenya. The parts are expected to be built in Korea and transported by ship and rail - a huge logistical challenge - to the city of Mwanza, in the northwest of the country, where the ferry will be assembled and delivered.
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SHIP
The vessel is to be of steel construction, she is double screw propeller which powered by two inboard main engines and it will have two conventional full spade type rudders. The vessel shall be constructed with an aft cargo hold, in order to allow the passage of vehicles and the storage of cargo, and therefore it will have one aft ramp door for vehicles, and another smaller ramp door in starboard side for palletized cargo. Vehicles and cargo will be arranged at aft of main deck. Above the main deck there will be four decks for passengers and crew. Below main deck one engine room at aft and auxiliary machinery space, one bow thruster room at forward will be arranged. Hosts the crew quarters, accommodation spaces, and emergency generator and Navigation Bridge that integrated the superstructure will be located above the continuous deck.
With this new engineering contract, SENER has the experience from having built over 1,200 ships and offshore artifacts worldwide under its own designs. With more than 60 years working in the Marine sector, nowadays SENER provides professional services to shipyards, technical offices, shipping lines, ship owners and official organizations all over the world. SENER undertakes engineering in all of its stages – conceptual, contractual, classification, detailed and production – as well as work in consultancy, procurement, inspection, supervision, coordination, testing and special studies. Besides, SENER has developed its own CAD/CAM/CAE software, FORAN, an integrated system for the design, engineering and production of ships and offshore artifacts, which is currently licensed to over 150 shipyards and technical offices in 40 countries.

By Baird Maritime - October 15, 2019
PASSENGER VESSEL WEEK
Richardson Devine Marine Constructions has just launched Kilimanjaro VII, a 45-metre catamaran passenger ferry for Azam Marine of Tanzania, Africa.
This vessel is the seventh vessel built for the operator by Richardson Devine Marine to supply a passenger ferry service between Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar. As per the previous six vessels, Sydney-based Incat Crowther was responsible for the design and engineering.
The vessel seats 224 passengers in its main deck business cabin, 72 VIP passengers and 18 “royal class” passengers in luxurious lie flat seats on the mid deck, with the remainder being economy passengers in separate areas over three decks.
VIP and royal class passengers enjoy dedicated personal entertainment screens with a food and beverage ordering service incorporated into the system. A major enhancement from earlier vessels is the relocation of the wheelhouse to the third deck. This configuration results in panoramic windows forward on the mid deck for the royal class passengers, creating an impressive experience for occupants of this high-revenue space.
The expansive wheelhouse is full width with internal wing stations and four forward facing elevated crew seats for the master, mate and engineers. There is a comfortable bank of armchairs for travelling company executives or guest VIPs.
To facilitate efficient boarding of passengers and luggage the 500-passenger, 35 knot vessel features a parallel boarding system from ship-based, electrically operated, hinged boarding access ways.
There are four passenger access entries per side with level-adjusting boarding stairs and a dedicated cargo access ramp. VIP and royal class passengers board into a discreet stair tower directly to the upper deck cabin. Main deck business passengers also board midships with economy passengers boarding aft.
Luggage trolley movements are managed safely using a high-speed winch mounted in the luggage room overhead. The luggage room houses up to 10 tonnes of luggage and cargo. The boarding system ensures passenger classes and luggage trolleys are segregated, reducing turnaround time and improving safety, whilst promoting exclusivity for the higher yield passengers.
Kilimanjaro VII is the first fast passenger vessel to use a pair of Cummins QSK95-M main engines. RDM said the large, twin-engine solution was an effective way of providing more speed whilst avoiding the through-life cost and complexity of a four-engine power train. Engine room accessibility is improved over a four-engine arrangement, and maintenance and operational requirements are reduced.
Kilimanjaro VII impressed on the sea trials last week, operating at a fully loaded speed of 30 knots at low proportion of MCR to offer very long engine life. She has a top speed in excess of 37 knots and has proven smooth and quiet. For passenger comfort and to assist seakeeping, the vessel is fitted with a Naiad active interceptor system, whilst IMO HSC code-compliant stability enhances her safety credentials. The journey between Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar is around 42 nautical miles and should take approximately one hour and 45 minutes.
