The CSCL Uranus

In contrast to the majority of conventional container ships, the double-hulled ships have the deckhouse positioned far forward, which enables an improved line of sight and thus higher forward deck loading. The main propulsion of the ships is provided by a supercharged two-stroke crosshead engine of the type MAN B&W 12K98MC-C7 with twelve cylinders and an output of 72,240  kW , which was built under license by the Korean manufacturer Doosan . The bore of the motor is 98 cm, the stroke 240 cm. Two diesel generators with 3500 kVA each and two diesel generators with 4750 kVA each and a harbor / emergency generator with 375 kVA are used to generate electricity  .

The holds of the ships of the CSCL-Star type are closed with pontoon hatch covers. The ships have a capacity of 13,300  TEU , but the shipping company specifies a maximum capacity of 14,074. Transporting up to 10,500 TEU is possible with a homogeneous loading of 14-tonne 20-foot containers. 800 refrigerated containers can be connected. The berthing and casting off maneuvers are supported by two bow thrusters .
