Title Extending Asset Life Through
Use of Technology
By Michelle Poitras, Design
Maintenance Systems Inc.
Abstract In the search for additional ways to extend the life of onboard assets, fleet based marine organizations are realizing a larger ROI with the use of condition monitoring technolo- gies for marine applications (visual inspections, vibration analysis, oil analysis, ultrasonics, ther- mography, and diesel engine performance monitoring). Using handheld computers for rounds and incorporating the information into a planned maintenance management system, savings are realized at both the asset and sur- vey level. Learn about an innovative software solution which brings the data generated by these methods into one database accessible by personnel on the ship, and at the regional and corporate offices of the ship's operating company.
Title Advances in LNG Ship Dual Fuel
Engines
By John Hatley, PE, VP Ship Power
Abstract Wärtsilä, the global leader in propul- sion systems, provides proven dual fuel medi- um speed diesel engines for LNG carriers. The premier Wärtsilä model 50DF has been select- ed as the engine of choice for several LNG new builds. The Wärtsilä 50DF enables flexible fuel choice, provides high efficiency and offers low emissions coupled to low life cycle costs.
Attend this session and obtain an understand- ing of how Wärtsilä duel fuel advanced technol- ogy and proven electric drive propulsion sys- tem offer significant benefits.
Title ShipConstructor's Database
Driven Relational Object Model (DDROM) will revolutionize the shipbuilding/offshore industry
Abstract ShipConstructor's Database Driven
Relational Object Model (DDROM) is an exciting new technology that will transform how ship- yards and offshore yards design and fabricate.
DDROM is similar to parametric technology, but does not come with all the headaches of the parametric technology. In contrast to paramet- ric technology, the powerful DDROM will be usable by designers without extensive training on even the most complex vessels and struc- tures while still running on standard PCs. Thus, parametric-like features will be available on a much more comfortable and workable level.
Title Risk-Based Approach to Approval of Novel Concepts in LNG
By Lloyd's Register North America
Abstract With the sudden growth in LNG ship- ping and a move towards regasification and reliquefaction onboard ship, we are seeing renewed interest in non-traditional methods of shipping LNG . The LNG industry has improved the technology for transporting this product, but the existing rules and regulations do not always address the new concepts being put forward by industry. This presentation will first provide some insight on the differences between the traditional and performance-based risk management approach in the development of rules and regulations by the certifying bod- ies. The intent is to provide the audience with an appreciation of the time, effort, and cost- effectiveness of utilizing a risk-based approach in the approval of novel concepts in LNG.
Title Cost of Overlooking Progressive
Surface Prep Technologies
By Ted Valoria, VP - Sponge-Jet
Abstract Compliance to surface preparation specification and policies as directed by the
IMO and major ship insurers is critical to extending ship asset life, increasing reliability and environmental safety. These specifications are often circumvented by shipyards but can be easily met with new abrasive blasting technolo- gies. Specifiers and owners need to be aware of this issue, as it increases ship ownership costs by millions of dollars. This presentation will outline the key policies and specifications… a new "compliant" solution will be introduced.
