BERGE STAHL

Hyundai

The gigantic, 365,000-dwt ore car- rier Berge Stahl was delivered re- cently by Hyundai Heavy Industries of Ulsan, Korea, to Bergesen d.y.

A/S of Oslo, one of Norway's leading shipowners and operators.

The vessel has an overall length of 1,125.3 feet, beam of 208.3 feet, depth of 99 feet, and design/scant- ling draft of 75.5 feet. Her volumet- ric capacity (grain) is 200,000 cubic meters. Propulsion is by a two- stroke, low-speed Hyundai/B&W 7L90MCE diesel engine with a con- tinuous service output of 24,850 bhp at 70.9 rpm, giving a service speed of 13.5 knots under normal sea condi- tions. Fuel consumption will not ex- ceed 71.2 tons per day. Electric pow- er is supplied by two Wartsila 800- kw diesel generators and one Sinko 800-kw direct-coupled turbogenera- tor, plus one 200-kw emergency gen- erator.
