history

The development of the series was commissioned on May 6, 2013 by China Shipping Container Lines (CSCL) from the South Korean shipyard Hyundai Heavy Industries . The lead ship was laid down on May 27, 2014 . With the CSCL Arctic Ocean , the fifth ship of the series was delivered on March 20, 2015. The purchase price was around 127 million euros per unit. The ships are used in liner shipping between Europe and East Asia.

Since the merger of the China Shipping Group with COSCO to form the China COSCO Shipping Corporation in 2016, the ships have been operating for the China COSCO Shipping Corporation.

CSCL Indian Ocean accident in February 2016 on the Elbe

On February 3, 2016 for the announced port of Hamburg certain CSCL Indian Ocean the Brunsbüttel Vessel Traffic Center to 22:10 the failure of her steering gear . The ship drifted to 22:20 north from the fairway of the Lower Elbe and then ran close east of the Elbe island Lühesand due. After two unsuccessful attempts to pull the ship back into the fairway with six or seven tugs , the Cuxhaven emergency command took over the management of the salvage of the damaged vessel on February 4, 2016 . As of February 8, the ship was t to 6506 lightened (of which 2,506 t fuel) to the draft to reduce. Suction dredgers also removed around 45,000 m³ of sediment around the ship. With the spring tide , which was 1.2 m above normal , the ship was towed free in the early morning of February 9 with the help of twelve tugs and brought to the port of Hamburg, which it left again on its own on February 12 after cargo handling and thorough inspection. The Federal Bureau of Maritime Casualty Investigation (BSU) found an incorrectly wired safety device in the steering gear to be the cause of the steering failure.

technology

The ships classified by DNV GL belong to the group of ULCS container ships. They have dimensions comparable to the units in the Triple E class with a larger number of container parking spaces and a lower load capacity.

Size comparison of the CSCL Pacific Ocean with a feeder ship

The deckhouse is striking in terms of shipbuilding and stands further forward than in the majority of conventional container ships, which enables an improved line of sight and thus a higher forward deck loading. In terms of environmental protection in maritime shipping , the bunker tanks arranged below the superstructure are worth mentioning, which meet the MARPOL regulations. The holds of the ships are closed with pontoon hatch covers. The maximum container capacity was initially specified as 18,270  TEU , but due to a higher number of spaces for empty containers on deck, the units should be delivered with a nominal 19,000 TEU without technical changes. With full utilization of the storage capacity, an average container weight of around 10.25 tons could be transported; with the average container weight of 14 tons, which is usually assumed for comparison purposes, the capacity drops to well below 14,000 units. Connections for integral refrigerated containers are available.

The propulsion of the ships consists of a two - stroke diesel engine of the type MAN B&W 12S90ME-C Mark 9.2 built under license from Hyundai with a maximum output of 69,720 kW at 84 rpm, which acts on a single fixed propeller. The output of this - the second largest engine in the world after its dimensions - was reduced to 56,800 kW to reduce fuel consumption.
