The 5,252 tonne vessel has a fuel-efficient modern design, has a large cargo carrying capacity and bulk cargo system and features fuel efficient propulsion pods. It also has a four-engine diesel electric power plant. The bulbous bow design takes into consideration varying operating speed, draughts and sea states that OSVs typically operate in.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe addition of the large PSVs in the L Class series to the SPO fleet will certainly enhance SPO\u2019s competitiveness as a trusted and forward-looking service provider,\u201d said Yoshio Otagaki, representative director and vice president, ship and offshore division, JMU.<\/p>\n
Pacific Liberty<\/i>\u2019s propulsion system uses a computerised power management system that can be programmed to ensure optimisation of the diesel engine load and fuel consumption. The Cargomaxx bulk system uses a pressure vacuum system to load and unload the cargo and has a product weighing system to accurately measure a product delivered as an individual parcel or as an aggregated amount over a period of time, allowing dry and wet bulk cargoes to be carried in five separate tanks.<\/p>\n
The FiFi, DP2 vessel is also SPS Compliant and Clean Class.<\/p>\n
The first in the series, Pacific Leader<\/i>, was delivered in April 2014, followed by Pacific Legacy<\/i> in August 2014 and Pacific Legend<\/i> in September 2014.<\/p>\n
These latest vessels joins SPO\u2019s fleet of 90 support vessels, including anchor handling tug supply vessels, PSVs, ice-breaking supply vessels, seismic survey vessels, accommodation barges and multi-purpose offshore vessels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
