Cargo Ships

A lot of different cargo vessels are at sea every day. These vessels are on transportation duty for container, as bulk carriers or as ferries. For all cargo vessels there are time tables to obey, even in bad weather condition. And all cargo vessels live from their payload, not from their technical installations inside. Cargo vessels have to be economical and reliable for a life time.

Under these circumstances diesel-electric propulsion systems are very often a trustworthy solution. Diesel-electric propulsion systems are very convenient for the user because of excellent dynamic response from zero to maximum propeller speed. Especially with the most modern Siemens-Schottel-Propulsor (SSP), you can combine the all the characteristics of a DE-System with the manoeuvrability of an azimuth drive.

All the shipboard operations need continuous control, maybe as an overview for the bridge personnel or a more detailed insight for the engineers. It's absolutely necessary to know what's going on onboard, so the right decisions can be taken, either by the helmsman or by an engineer. With an integrated monitoring, alarm and control system these requirements can be fulfilled.
