Wir haben bereits zweimal an dieser Stelle über die Innovation der kleinen Firma Hull Vane BV mit Sitz im niederländischen Wageningen berichtet. Im Mai 2023 hatte die Hvide Sande Werft an der dänischen Westküste das erste Offshore-Patrouillenschiff (OPV) an die dänische Fischereibehörde übergeben. Es wurde mit Azimut-Antriebsgondeln und in Kombination mit einem Leitblech von Hull Vane unter dem Heck abgeliefert.

Am 14. Dezember fand die Kiellegung für das erste gemeinsame Projekt von ABEKING & RASMUSSEN und FASSMER, ein 105m Hydrographieschiff statt.

Neubau des Hydrographieschiffes beauftragt. Da das Schiffskonzept auf einem bewährten Entwurf der Firma FASSMER basiert, wurde das Projekt von Beginn an
gemeinsam bearbeitet.

Hamburg: Hapag-Lloyd plans sailing container ships

Hamburg: Hapag-Lloyd plans sailing container ships

Posted by | 18 Dec 2023 | , , , | 0

The Hamburg-based shipping company Hapag-Lloyd says it is working on plans for cargo ships with sail propulsion. Specifically, this involves container ships with a length of around 260 metres and a capacity of 4,500 containers. A total of eight masts will be distributed between the container stacks, four on the port side and four on the starboard side. The sails will be pulled out of the mast like a roller blind (furling main) and set automatically from the deck. This means that a ship planned in this way will have more sail area than the German Navy's training ship, the "Gorch Fock". In addition, an engine will be installed that can run on green methanol (e-fuel). In the coming months...

The multi-purpose combat ship "MKS 180", which has since been renamed "Frigate F126", saw the start of construction of its first unit on 5 December 2023. Just a few days before the end of the year, the start of production before 2024, which was promised when the contract was signed, was thus also realised. On 19 June 2020, the signatures were signed in Koblenz with which Damen Schelde Naval Shipbuilding (DSNS, Netherlands) and the Federal Office of Bundeswehr Information Technology and In-Service Support (BAAINBw) agreed on the construction of the multi-purpose combat ship "MKS 180". At that time, 5.72 billion euros were included in the federal budget. For this amount, Germany is procuring four identical frigates, two of which are equipped with the "ASW situation picture" mission module (ASW:...

Submarines for Poland now from South Korea?

Submarines for Poland now from South Korea?

Posted by | 5 Dec 2023 | , , , | 4

The Polish Navy has been endeavouring to replace its submarines for some time and launched the "Orka" project in 2014. Since then, European naval shipbuilders have been trying in vain to secure an order. It was not until May 2023 that Defence Minister Mariusz Blaszczak announced his intention to initiate the purchase of submarines in 2023. South Korea as an option? According to a press release issued by South Korean company Hanwha Ocean on 29 November 2023, the company has held talks about a strategic partnership in Poland and presented its KSS-III submarine project. The 3,600-tonne boat is in service with the Republic of Korea Navy. The offer from...
