The Ugleuralsk cargo ship series was the first series of bulk carriers from the Warnow shipyard during the GDR .

history

Forward of the Usolye

The series was manufactured in nine units in 1958/59. The ships were initially used mainly for the transport of industrial equipment and later mainly in the ore and coal trade. For example in the Murmansk-Rostock- Apatitfahrt . The complete series was built for the USSR . All ship names began with "U".

The first ship and namesake of the series was the Ugleuralsk with hull number 401, which was handed over to the Soviet Union on November 7, 1958. It was operated until 1984 and demolished in Hiroshima from September 1984 . The last ship in the series was the Ustilug with hull number 409 , which was handed over on December 30, 1959. She was demolished in China in 1986 . A ship of the series, the Uman , was lost on January 13, 1964 at the position 36 ° 35 ′  N , 7 ° 45 ′  W , fourteen seamen were killed. The rest of the ships were sold to abandoners from the mid-1980s. The Urzhum was the most durable , reaching 30 years of operation before being scrapped in San Esteban de Pravia on August 2, 1989 .

The further development of the ship type was the Dzhankoy series.

technology

The ships were propelled by a 3972 kW two-stroke diesel engine of the type K7Z 70 / 102C manufactured under MAN license from the manufacturer VEB Dieselmotorenwerk Rostock , which acts directly on a four- bladed fixed propeller with a diameter of 5.18 m.

The ice-reinforced hulls are made of high-strength steel and assembled in sectional construction. The deckhouse is air-conditioned.

The five cargo holds with a volume of 9313 m³ are closed off sea-tight with hatch covers from the MacGregor system. The first ships in the series had five ship cranes. The subsequent buildings later had four and finally only two cranes.
