Circle 220 on Reader Service Card 88 has been developed by HZSL in con- junction with the GTR Campbell- associated constancy Algoship

International, in anticipation of a replacement market for an earlier generation of standard design, gen- eral-purpose cargo carriers.

The series of 20,000-dwt geared vessels in hand for the Clipper

Group of Denmark, Dockendale

Shipping of the Bahamas, and

Singapore's own Hai Sun Hup

Company hold out the prospect of

Singapore's shipbuilding industry fulfilling a role in providing econom- ic substitutes for aging F-class ves- sels. Built primarily in Japan to

Campbell-originated blueprints around 15 to 25 years ago, an esti- mated 200 such ships remain in ser- vice. One of the results of the recent upgrading of HZSL's facilities is that it can now accommodate an output of one Stamford newbuilding every three months. It has increased its capabilities with a 623 x 131.2-ft. (190 x 40-m) slipway for the con- struction of vessels up to 30,000 dwt, and has a new outfitting berth.

Accreditation to ISO 9001 quality standards adds a further string to its bow in its commercial endeavors.

The competitively-priced Stamford- type vessel from the Japanese-owned yard has a four-hold configuration with total 23,880-cu.-m. and 23,795- cu.-m. grain and bale capacity mea- surements, respectively, plumbed by three 36-ton deck cranes.

The design has been conceived for bulk commodities, steel products, lumber and unitized forestry goods, or for a full container load of 869-

TEU, employing both hold and weatherdeck stowage. Anticipated fuel consumption is 24.2 tons per day at 15 knots on the 30-ft. (9.2-m) design draft.

Singapore Technologies Ship- building & Engineering (STSE) is undertaking a further stage of mod- ernization of its yard, which includes two floating docks, through the installation of a new shiplift facility.

Its existing Syncrolift of 5,000-tons capacity is around 25 years old. As the marine arm of a diversified industrial group, STSE covers a whole range of sectors in the military and commercial vessel markets, including design, repair, reconstruc- tion, newbuilding and fabrication.

Its recent work inflow has included comparatively long refit and repair contracts involving two tugs owned by Semco Salvage & Marine. The turnkey-type project on Sea Lynx and Sea Panther includes steel and pipe renewals, electrical and mechanical overhauls, upgrading of accommodation and air-condition- ing, and hull re-coating.
