        荷兰航运公司De Bock Maritiem签署了建造两艘柴油电动海船的合同，使其运营产生的二氧化碳排放量减少一半。 

 

        这两艘3600吨级的船舶由荷兰公司Conoship International设计，并且将由荷兰造船集团（Holland Shipyards Group）建造。

 

        据上周报道所称，Conoship公司的另一批设计方案已经在土耳其开工。

 

        这两艘船一旦于2024年交付后将挂荷兰旗航行运输干货。据悉，由于船舶吃水少，它们适于在莱茵河和内河航道航行。

 

        De Bock Maritiem公司凭借船舶的环保特性，吸引了“波塞冬准则”（“Poseidon Principles”）的签署方荷兰银行（BN AMRO Bank N.V.）成为该项目的合作伙伴。 

 

        这家荷兰船东表示，与目前欧洲短途船队中的同类船舶相比，这两艘船的排放量将减少50%。船舶优化了螺旋桨和船体线条且功率消耗低，所以它们的能源效率比IMO Tier III排放标准的要求高30%。 

 

        Conoship公司准备在船上放置两个Econowind VentiFoils®风力推进装置，其达3,600吨的设计已为风力辅助推进做好了准备工作。根据航行路线，船舶燃料消耗和二氧化碳排放预计可减少约10%。

 

        这些船舶将采用模块化设计，其发电机位于上层甲板上一个易于进入的空间，提前为之后的转换做好准备，从而使船舶能够以替代燃料航行。船舶推进室位于其底部，推进系统本身会保持电力驱动，因而在转换中不会受到影响。

 

        虽然这些船舶小于5000吨，但不会受欧盟排放交易计划（EU ETS）的约束。该公司认为，400至5000吨的船舶也必须为减少二氧化碳排放做出自己的贡献。

 

        De Bock Maritiem B.V.的主管Gilbèrt de Bock表示：“得益于我们船舶的颜色，我们多年来一直在‘绿色’航行。随着新的收购完成，我们很快就会看到船舶二氧化碳排放数字也能反映出‘绿色’。这两艘新船会让我们在这条环保道路上继续前进。”

 

        De Bock Maritiem公司专门运营低吃水的干货船，其总部设在荷兰的阿尔克马尔（ Alkmaar），船队拥有8艘船。

De Bock Maritiem orders two diesel-electric coasters

 

Dutch shipping company De Bock Maritiem has signed contracts for the construction of two diesel-electric seagoing vessels that will enable the company to halve its CO2 emissions. 

 

The 3,600-tonne vessels were designed by the Dutch Conoship International and they will be built by the Holland Shipyards Group.

 

As reported last week, another batch of Conoship’s designs has kicked off construction in Turkey.

 

Once delivered in 2024, the duo will sail under the Dutch flag and they will transport dry cargo. As informed, they are suitable to sail on the Rhine and in inland waterways as well due to their low draft.

 

De Bock Maritiem has attracted ABN AMRO Bank N.V., a signatory of the Poseidon Principles, as a partner on the project due to the vessels’ environmental characteristics. 

 

The Dutch shipowner said that the ships will have 50 percent lower emissions when compared to their counterparts in the current European shortsea fleet. Due to their optimized propeller and hull lines and low power consumption, they will have 30 percent higher energy efficiency than the IMO Tier III requirement. 

 

Conoship’s 3,600 tdw design is ready for wind-assisted propulsion, as it is prepared for the placement of two Econowind VentiFoils®, enabling for estimated fuel consumption and CO2 emissions reduction by abt. 10%, depending on the sailing route.

 

The ships will feature a modular design, with their generators located in an easily accessible space on the upper deck, making them ready for future conversion projects that would enable the vessels to run on an alternative fuel. The propulsion room is located at the bottom of the ship and would remain unaffected in such a conversion because the propulsion train itself would remain electric.

 

Even though the vessels will not be subject to the EU ETS as they are smaller than 5,000GT the company believes that it is important for ships between 400 and 5,000 GT to do their part in contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions.

 

“Thanks to the colors of our ships, we have been sailing ‘green’ for years, but with the new acquisition we will soon see ‘green’ reflected in our emission figures as well,” says Gilbèrt de Bock, director of De Bock Maritiem B.V. “With these two new ships we are continuing on this path into the future.”

 

De Bock Maritiem specializes in dry cargo ships with low air-draft and low draft. Based in Alkmaar, the Netherlands, the company has eight vessels in its fleet.
