CHEMSTAR ACE 19,481-dwt Chemical Carrier
The 19,481-dwt chemical carrier CHEMSTAR ACE was built at Onishi Works of the Shin Kurushima Dockyard Co., Ltd., and delivered in January 1997 to Lodestar Navigation S.A.
The vessel was built for ocean transport of chemicals (IMO type 2 & 3) and oil products.
The vessel has twenty (20) cargo tanks constructed of stainless steel SUS304 and/or SUS304LN.
All cargo tanks and slop tanks are of double-hull structure and have enough strength to permit the full cargo of 1.30 t/m3 in specific gravity.
Structures protruding into the tanks are minimized by using the on-deck girder system for the upper deck and vertical corrugated type bulkheads.
Each cargo tank is equipped with one (1) submerged cargo pump driven by a hydraulic motor. The pumps are remotely controlled from the cargo control room. Cargo handling is simplified by a 5 metricton hydraulic operated deck crane for hose handling, arranged amidship on the upper deck.
