The cargo ship type Pioner is a series cargo ship type of the Neptun shipyard .
history
The series was built from 1966 to 1972 at the Neptun shipyard in Rostock and comprised 32 ships.
The first ship and namesake of the series was the Pioner with hull number 301, which was handed over to her Soviet shipping company on March 27, 1966. The Pioner was never renamed, stayed in service until 2008 and was scrapped from August 5, 2008 in Chittagong . The 32 ships of the Pioner series, which were completely delivered to the Soviet Union , were named after Soviet heroes, with a few exceptions. The last ship in the series was the Pionerskaya Zorka with hull number 332 , which was handed over on September 30, 1972. Most of the Pioner ships had a service life of around 25 to 30 years and more. However, a large proportion drove well into the first decade after the turn of the millennium. A significant number of ships are still in service today.
technology
The basic design of the ship type is a further development of the successful Povenez series . The air-conditioned superstructures were enlarged somewhat with a similar design and insulated against outside temperatures of up to −40 ° C. The 2390 kW 2-stroke diesel engines of the type MAN K6Z 57/80 A3 were MAN engines manufactured under license from the manufacturer VEB Maschinenbau Halberstadt. The main engine had a direct reversible effect on a fixed propeller with removable blades.
The ships designed for ice travel were equipped with a semi-icebreaker stem. A higher-strength steel was used due to the open construction and the high demands on use in ice. In contrast to the previous series, the slab corridors of the sectional hulls were partially riveted.
The four holds with tween decks, a bulk volume of 6608 m 3 and a ball area of 5767 m 3 were with movable grain bulkheads provided and hoppers. From the eighteenth ship onwards, the ships of the Pioner series were provided with 540 m 3 refrigerated holds. The loading gear consisted of eight booms each for five tons as well as two heavy cargo booms for 20 and 40 tons, which were attached to three "A" -shaped masts.
