Custom-made container ship looming transfer

Currently, the international shipping market continues to hot container ships, traffic surged, shrinking the container idle capacity. Meanwhile, second-hand boat buyers active inquiry more new ships, shipowners have shown signs of following orders. Experts believe that, despite all the uncertainty, but the international financial crisis remains in the doldrums since the custom-made container shipping market may be a turnaround in the coming months.
Shipping market continues to hot, idle capacity decreasing
Since the beginning of this year, international container shipping market can be described as “full bloom”, the container trade rebound momentum. In the first quarter, the Asia-Europe container trade routes generally rose 22%. In addition, other trunk routes traffic generally rose. Meanwhile, the container ship lease rates rose slightly in the first quarter changed the momentum began to soar. Howe Robinson container ship chartering Index (HRCI) in the first quarter rose only 72 points, but the rise since April surge, June 16 to close at 596.5 points, higher than earlier this year, up 78%.  继续阅读

Ship system

1.The fire-fighting system

Due to the short circuit of a loop, poor insulation of a conductor,accumulation of oil mist,welding procedure or painting process,a serious fire hazard will occur at any time and result in a tragic accident,especially with an oil tanker.Thus,to extinguish the possible fire,we have to set up a fire fighting system which is sometimes called Fi-Fi system.

As you know,the three fundamental conditions for catching fire are high temperature,sufficient air and combustible substance.No doubt that it is impossible for us to alter the combustibility of a substance.What we can do is abolish or change the exterior conditions of combustion by either reducing the temperature or isolating the ambient air.

In respect of the fire-fighting system,there exist a few different types.First,the water fire-fighting system .Secondly,the steam fire-fighting system.Thirdly,the CO2 or inert gas fire-fighting system.Fourthly,the foam fire-fighting system.Last of all,the halogen fire-fighting system.

Workmanship for Hull Building

It is really fascinating to gaze at a colossal ship standing high on a slipway or sailing fast at the blue sea,and you will be still more excited if you are offered a chance to pay a visit to the wonderful labyrinth inside a ship.Indeed,a ship,to the mind of a naval archtect,is a true work of art.

But few of the ordinary people have any idea about the workmanship for hull building.One might be surprised to learn that, the construction of “a floating litte town”with such complicated hull form and such complex hull structures,should start with the very paper work.

To give you some brief introduction on the primary workship for hull building,we would like to relate as follow:

1.Lofting

2.Material marking

3.Proceccing of hull members

4.Fabrication and welding of hull

5.Tightness test

6.Ship launching
