中国石化新闻网讯 据世界天然气网站6月18日消息 美国美森轮船公司的第一艘Kanaloa级液化天然气集装箱货运船已在通用动力公司NASSCO造船厂完成命名。 美森周一表示，该船名为“Lurline”，是该公司1887年第一艘使用该名称船的船名。 Lurline是NASSCO为美森建造的两艘新船中的第一艘，总成本约为5亿美元。该公司在NASSCO造船厂建造的两艘Kanaloa级船舶正在3500标准箱的平台上进行建造。 Lurline船长870英尺，重量超过50000吨，将是美森在美国建造的最大的船舶和最大的组合集装箱和滚装船舶。 这两艘新的Kanaloa级船舶也将配备一级Tier 3双燃料发动机，用于服务西海岸港口的集装箱船。 根据国际海事组织对发动机制造商的最新要求，与Tier 2标准相比，Tier 3发动机将微粒排放水平降低40%，氮氧化物排放水平降低20%。 Lurline随后会停靠在NASSCO附近的测试和试验泊位，在那里将完成最后的施工阶段。预计美森将于2019年10月底提货。 值得注意的是，NASSCO于2018年4月为美森削减了第二艘Kanaloa级液化天然气集装箱船的第一批钢材。这艘名为Matsonia的船只计划于2020年第二季度交付。 吴恒磊 编译自 世界天然气 原文如下： Matson christens first LNG-ready containership Matson’s first Kanaloa-class LNG-ready containership has been named at the General Dynamics NASSCO shipyard. Matson said on Monday that the vessel was named Lurline, a name carried by the company’s first ship of that name in 1887. The Lurline is the first of two new ships being built for Matson by NASSCO at a total cost of around $500 million for the pair. The company’s two Kanaloa Class vessels under construction at the NASSCO shipyard are being built on a 3,500 TEU platform. At 870 feet long and weighing in at over 50,000 tonnes, Lurline will be Matson’s largest ship and the largest combination container and roll-on/roll-off (con-ro) vessel ever constructed in the U.S. Both new Kanaloa Class vessels will also feature the first Tier 3 dual fuel engines to be deployed in containerships serving West Coast ports. Under the latest International Maritime Organization requirements for engine manufacturers, Tier 3 engines reduce the levels of particulate emissions by 40 percent and nitrogen oxide emissions by 20 percent, as compared to Tier 2 standards. Lurline was then docked at NASSCO’s nearby testing and trials berth, where the final stages of construction will be completed. Matson is expected to take delivery of the vessel in late October 2019. It is worth noting that NASSCO cut first steel on the second Kanaloa-class LNG-ready containership for Matson back in April 2018. The vessel, named Matsonia, is scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2020.
