HAMANE SPIRIT Double-Hull, Double-Bottom Aframax Oil Tanker
HAMANE SPIRIT is the 15th vessel to be built by Onomichi Dockyard Co., Ltd. for Teekay Shipping Limited.
This standard type Aframax tanker has a double-hull, double-bottom structure that satisfies the requirements of the latest MARPOL.
Features
Cargo space is partitioned into four center and four pairs of cargo oil side tanks and a pair of slop tanks.
Three independent cargo piping lines allow simultaneous loading/unloading of cargo oil.
The vessel's advanced safety equipment include a vapor emission control system and an inerting system for water ballast tanks.
With a bulbous bow and a transom stern, the hull offers low resistance and contributes to lower fuel-oil consumption.
The main engine, a low-speed, super-long-stroke diesel driving a large-diameter propeller, provides superior propulsive and energy efficiency.
