Bremer Vulkan Group

Selects TRIBON

The Bremer Vulkan Group chose

Kockums Computer Systems' (KCS)

TRIBON shipbuilding system for its outfit design area. The Bremer

Vulkan Group yards of Bremer

Vulkan GmbH in Bremen, Schichau

Seebeckwerft in Bremerhaven,

MTW Schiffswerft in Wismar,

Flender Werft in Lubeck and

Volkswerft in Stralsund have, for several years, used applications sup- plied by KCS in the hull design area. In other areas of the world, the recently introduced TRIBON has fared similarly well. Hudong Ship- yard, Shanghai, China, bought the

Hull and Work Preparation appli- cations of TRIBON, while the

Guangzhou Shipyard International of Guangzhou, China, bought the

Hull, Work Preparation, Pipe and

Basic Design applications.

Finally, Atlantic Marine of Jack- sonville, Fla. purchased the Pipe,

Cable, Structure, Ventilation and

General Design applications of the

TRIBON system.

OTECH Buys 900-LT Drydock

Ocean Technical Services, Inc. of

Harvey, La. bought a 900-long ton drydock from Conrad Industries,

Inc. The 120-foot (36.5 m) by 52-foot (15.8 m) by 15-foot (4.5 m) drydock was built in 1990 and is reportedly in new condition. It has eight 1,400 gpm eight-inch Lo-Lift volume pro- peller pumps driven by 10-hp 230/ 460 volt 60 cycle three-phase elec- tric motors. The piping system is designed so in the event of pump failure, the affected compartment could be pumped by the adjacent pump. For more information on the services of OTECH,

Intermarine Appoints

Haferkamp As

General Manager

Hermann H. Haferkamp

Intermarine USA of Savannah,

Ga. announced that Hermann H.

Haferkamp joined the organiza- tion as general manager, operations, to oversee all aspects of ship prod- ucts which include engineering, material control and integrated lo- gistics support.

Mr. Haferkamp said that in ad- dition to the ongoing U.S. Navy

Minehunter construction program,

Intermarine is developing the facility's ship repair activities.

He said that the 1,000-ton ma- rine railway and the 535-ft. (163 m) graving dock will add needed flex- ibility and choice for small- and medium-sized vessels in the South

East Coast area.

During his more than 30 years in new construction and repair of ships, yachts and offshore marine struc- tures, Mr. Haferkamp has held numerous management positions.

Intermarine has seven additional

MHC-51 Class Minehunters to build for the U.S. Navy, the last of which is scheduled for delivery in 1997.

The shipyard manufactures the structure of the ships from glass reinforced plastic (GRP).

Condor Marine Builds Fremantle Port Authority Vessel

Condor Marine's Henderson yard in Western Australia is currently testing an 82-foot (25 m) multi-pur- pose response vessel for the

Fremantle Port Authority.

The vessel features twin MAN

D2842LE 401S main engines, deliv- ering 1,000 hp each, providing the vessel with a 22-knot top speed. The three moni- tors, the hydrants and the self deluging systems are powered by three ad- ditional MAN'S.

The vessel design is available also in a 98- foot (30 m) form, in ei- ther a catamaran or monohull form. The ves- sels are driven by and get auxiliary power from multiple engines on com- mon shafts. This system is made possible by elec- tronic controls with manual overide, and a Kevlar belt drive from each engine onto the common shaft.
