The Neptun 388 series of cargo ships , also known as the Neuchâtel series , is a very variable type of general cargo from the Rostock shipyard "Neptun".
history
The basis of the type were the slightly smaller series Neptun 381 and Neptun 371 . Technically, the ships largely correspond to the later built types Neptun 401 from 1976 and Neptun 403 from 1976/77. The series was manufactured in 1974 in two units. The ships, which can be designed as either full-deck or free-deck, are primarily intended for the combined transport of general cargo, containers, heavy cargo, wood, bulk cargo, but also fruit and sweet oil .
The first ship and namesake of the series was the Neuenburg with hull number 388 , which was handed over on May 31, 1974. The Kiel-based Neuenburg was renamed several times, most recently in 1992 to J. Faster , and deleted from the register in 2000/2001. The second and last ship in this series was the Petra , laid down as Bari , which was canceled after several renaming from December 2, 2000 as J. Truster in Xinhui , China .
technology
The ships were powered by a 6620 kW two-stroke diesel engine of the type K9Z 60/105 E manufactured under MAN license from the manufacturer VEB Maschinenbau Halberstadt, which acts directly on a fixed propeller. The machine system is set up for largely automated operation.
The hulls with bulbous bow are joined together in a sectional construction. The living and working area of the aft deck superstructure, equipped with individual chambers, is air-conditioned.
The three holds with a volume of 20,189 m 3 grain space and 18,200 m 3 bale space have tween decks , the holds are closed with MacGregor hatch covers. In addition, 108 m 3 of refrigerated cargo and 383 m 3 of fresh oil and 336 containers or 3922 standard wood can be transported. The loading gear consists of three 16-ton swing booms , two 25-ton cranes and a swing-through 150-ton heavy-lift boom .
