REMONTOWA S.A.

Clean Design 4300 DWT Platform Supply Vessel

Remontowa S.A. has a distinct objective to create creative solutions to provide cost effective means of meeting its Client’s requirements. This is achieved through a tight working liaison between its Sales Office and Design Office enabling new ideas to be formed into reality. Experience gained in shipbuilding of various types of offshore support vessels has enabled the efficient design of newbuildings, to meet the rapidly developing needs of surface marine support for deployment of drilling / transport equipment.

Greater oil and gas development in the offshore industry has driven demand for bigger, high-tech supply vessels meeting new strict rules and regulations for all environmentally sensitive areas.

Remontowa S.A. has developed a variety of projects, which are designed to be economical to operate, to be efficient and flexible tools securing safe environment for their crews. Owing to our over 60 years of shipbuilding experience, latest achievements in propulsion and deck equipment technology, we are proud to present our new Platform Supply Vessel design.

New Remontowa’s PSV was developed emphasizing environmental friendly features without compromising its efficiency and serviceability. Consideration was given towards applicable and planned rules, to make new design fulfil fully compatible. At design stage ABS class regulations were accounted for, although other class societies may be chosen.

The hull shape is based on previously built vessels and checked during endurance water basin tests. Reduced hull resistance was achieved through slender lines what is reflected in lesser use of power and consequently a lower fuel consumption which, in turn, controls the amount of CO₂/NO_x emissions.

Maneuvering and sailing capabilities are controlled both by the hull form and by passive tank stabilization systems tailored to the endeavored operation.

Our multipurpose PSV design is arranged for operation with 4300 tons of deadweight.

In line with clean design guidelines all chemical cargo / oil tanks are located within double skinned hull. Tank arrangement under main deck allows to carry variety of cargoes, regardless if any kind of liquid, bulk, powder either solid are concerned. The Cement Bulk System includes dust collector with dust cyclone for the bulk tanks with automatic drainage. Tanks form was shaped for effortless cleaning and maintenance and fitted with cargo pumps selected for rapid discharge.

Particular care has been given to design of spacious 1000 m² cargo deck that may carry 2500 tons of load (such as pipes, containerized / bulk cargoes). Thanks to stabilizing tanks, the heel influence has been minimized to practical level, hence improving safety factors and work comfort. Basic outfitting provided for cargo handling comprises of two 2 ton at 10 m outreach cranes and two pairs of 10 tons cargo winches. High bulwarks on both sides protect cargo and crew from outboard sea and weather influence.

Working deck is prepared to accommodate latest technology novelties such as remote coupling hose connection manifolds or automatic sea-fastening system either more lifting equipment such as fixed / retractable cranes etc. As offshore safety standards are raising and become more and more adopted all over the world, our design is arranged to withstand high safety standards set.

Spacious working deck is well controlled form the bridge designed with attention to good visibility in all directions. Ergonomically designed accommodation areas with special care for decreasing vibration and noise level improves environment for 42 strong crew onboard, boosting thus safety factors. For the purpose of worldwide operations crew area is entirely air conditioned.

Propulsion has been carefully selected to minimize environmental impact - PSV features diesel electric propulsion, based on low emission engines and effective frequency control of main propellers and thrusters for optimal fuel saving. Design provides for optional installation of catalytic converters on propulsion engines in case of Client requirement. Proposed propulsion systems consists of diesel-electric power plant based on two or four (depending on Customer choice) Caterpillar 3516B generating sets rated 1825 kW each and adequately two or four Caterpillar 3508B generating sets rated 910 kW each where the best optimal solution utilize four CAT 3512 generating sets, driving two 1500 kW azimuth propellers. It is intended installed drive will enable flexible operation and transit with speed up to 14,5 knots, depending on load. Engine room is fully compliant with statutory notations outlining unmanned machinery space. Fully automatic DP2 class positioning system is based on azi-pull thrusters and pair of 1000 HP bow thrusters provides redundancy in position reference and thruster control. Extensive integrated alarm and monitoring system, including cargo space, gives online control over single point of vessel.

PSV design enables for oil recovery and safety standby features, while optional versions enable it to be configured for provision of helicopter landing deck, fire-fighting stands, ROV / Trencher and Dive Support operations and be fitted with additional accommodation. Remontowa is open also for other possibilities to match ideas of its Customer.
