Stork To Cool

Canadian Navy

Iroquois Class

Ships

Stork Canada Inc. has been awarded a con- tract to design and manufacture twelve 125- ton-refrigerant (TonR) screw-type chillers for the modernization of Iroquois class ships of the Canadian Department of National

Defense. The first units are scheduled for delivery in May.

The screw type chillers will be designed to meet naval shock and vibration require- ments and are the first of their type to be supplied to the Canadian Navy.

These units have been chosen for naval and cruise ship installation because of their large capacity rating, relatively compact size, and low noise and vibration emissions.

Stork Canada designs, supplies and manu- factures HVAC and refrigeration systems for the marine industry, and provides conceptu- al designs, specifications and commissioning services for marine and offshore vessels.

The company also supplies and services pumps, and has recently introduced a new line of screw chillers, high efficiency fans and low noise air handlers.

Stork Canada, with annual sales exceeding $11 million, has fortified its position as an industry leader in the U.S. and Canadian maritime industries. Trends in this mar- itime manufacturing segment mirror that of other industry supplier segments — compa- nies are increasingly called upon to provide complete package solutions, from manufac- ture through installation.. Stork Canada designs, supplies and commissions HVAC systems. In the near term, the company pre- dicts this trend will continue, with partner- ships forged between general HVAC equip- ment manufacturers and HVAC system designers. In the long term it could go one step further, with partnerships with ship- builders and system design suppliers. With the advent of larger ships, vessel owners require quieter, energy conserving ships, and Stork Canada has positioned itself to capitalize on these factors.

STILL USING THE RULE OF THUMB?

We don't doubt for a second a captain's ability to assess an anchoring situation. Nevertheless... accidents can happen but may be prevented with little effort and cost.

On the basis of information from official organizations,

Willem Pot has invested in a software program to assist decisions concerning anchoring. By entering data such as wave height, current, depth and wind speed, this program is ideally suitable for checking whether the decision taken is me optimum one. 48 Circle 250 on Reader Service Card Circle 270 on Reader Service Card
