Definitions

  • the disclosure relates to a hull for a container ship and to a container ship, i.e. a marine vessel configured for storage and transport of shipping containers.
  • the disclosure relates in particular to a container ship with a reinforced hull.
  • Container ships are marine vessels (cargo ships) that are designed and constructed for storing and transporting shipping containers (intermodal containers) . Typically, container ships carry all of their load in truck-size intermodal containers. Container ships are a common means of commercial intermodal freight transport and now carry most seagoing non-bulk cargo. Container ship capacity is measured in 20-foot equivalent units (TEU) . Typical loads are a mix of 20-foot and 40-foot (2-TEU) ISO-standard containers, with the latter predominant.
  • TEU 20-foot equivalent units
  • Shipping containers are stowed in the cargo holds in the hull, i.e. below the main deck, and above the main deck of a container ship.
  • storage space In the longitudinal direction of the container ship storage space is divided into container bays, in the transverse direction of the hull the storage space is divided in a number of rows, and in the vertical direction the storage space is divided in a number of horizontal container layers called tiers.
  • the shipping containers are stowed as high as possible with some container ships operating with up to ten or eleven tiers above the main deck.
  • Container ships are provided with a deckhouse housing the navigation bridge and accommodation.
  • the deckhouse is conventionally arranged towards the stern of the ship, immediately above the main engine room (single island design), with most of the cargo holds arranged in front of the deckhouse and the remaining holds aft of the deckhouse.
  • the deckhouse/bridge In order to maintain good forward visibility from the navigational bridge, necessary to comply with maritime regulations, there is a limitation as to how high shipping containers can be stowed in front of the deckhouse/bridge, i.e. how many tiers of shipping containers can be carried by the ship above the main deck on the most forward bays in front of the deckhouse.
  • the prior art discloses container ships where the deckhouse/bridge has been moved somewhat forward towards the bow of the ship (twin island design) .
  • the capacity of the ship is increased since the shipping containers can be stowed higher in the most forward bays due to a steeper line of sight from the bridge to the water surface ahead of the bow.
  • WO 2009/109188 discloses a roll-on and roll-off ship comprising a front part, a rear part and a central part. The ship is arranged with holds adapted to accommodate containers in the front part and in the rear parts and roll-off and roll-on in the central part of the ship.
  • CN106043595 discloses a hull for a container ship. The hull has a cargo hold for stowing non-refrigerated intermodal containers and refrigerated intermodal containers. The refrigerated containers have a refrigeration unit at one of their longitudinal ends. The hull has a plurality of transverse bulkheads dividing the cargo hold longitudinally in a plurality of container bays.
  • the capacity of container ships can for example be increased by moving the deckhouse completely forward i.e. ahead of the container bays. Thus, there are no above deck containers ahead of the deckhouse that could obstruct view from the bridge to the water ahead of the containership .
  • the deckhouse provides for a significant part of the torsional strength of the hull when it is placed in the conventional location above the engine room or approximately amidships. Therefore, arranging the deckhouse at the bow has a negative effect on the torsional strength.
  • the torsional strength of the hull is significantly increased.
  • This increased torsional strength allows the deckhouse of the ship to be positioned ahead of the cargo bays, at the bow of the ship, which not only improves the visibility from the bridge, but also increases the number of containers, which can be stacked above deck, since they are stacked behind the bridge.
  • the deck plating in prior art forming top of transverse coaming
  • the outer shall plating extends upwardly at least to the extended deck plating.
  • the deck plating formed part of transverse coaming.
  • the upper area of the hull sides (the shear strake) is reinforced.
  • the hull further comprises two outer support structures, each outer support structure extending lengthwise along one of the hull sides and projecting upwardly from the deck plating, and wherein the outer support structures provide support for at least one outer row of containers stowed above deck.
  • the deck plating is connected to an upper edge of the inner skin plating.
  • the deck plating is connected to a side of the outer shell plating, such that the outer shell plating extends upwards past the deck plating.
  • the outer shell plating extends upwards such that it forms part of the outer support structure.
  • each hull side further comprises at least one lengthwise extending crew passageway arranged in the hull side between the outer shell plating and the inner skin plating.
  • the vertical sides of the lengthwise torsion box are formed by the outer shell plating and the inner skin plating.
  • the top side of the lengthwise torsion box forms part of the deck plating, and a bottom side of the lengthwise torsion box is formed by a stringer that connects the outer shell plating with the inner skin plating.
  • the lengthwise torsion box comprises a crew passageway.
  • the crew passageway is shaped and sized for allowing an individual to walk through the passageway in an upright position .
  • the lengthwise torsion box extends at least over 0.4 times the rule length of the hull. In a twelfth possible implementation form of the first aspect the lengthwise torsion box is centered around the midship point . In a thirteenth possible implementation form of the first aspect the outer support structure provides support for the outer row of shipping containers at a level that substantially corresponds to the level of an upper surface of the at least one hatch cover when the latter is placed over the opening.
  • the vertical extent of the outer support structure is preferably less than 1.5 m, even more preferably less than 1 m .
  • an assembly comprising a hull according to the above, further comprising at least one hatch cover.
  • a container ship comprising a hull according to the first aspect or an assembly according to the second aspect.
  • the container ship further comprises a deckhouse arranged ahead of the cargo holds.
  • the deckhouse ahead of the cargo holds there is no restriction in the number of tiers of containers that can be stacked in the forward container bays and the cargo space under the deckhouse that is "lost" for stowing shipping containers is much smaller when the deckhouse is arranged ahead of the cargo holds due to the V-shaped cross-section of the hull in the forward portion of the hull compared to the U-shaped midship cross- section .
  • the container ship comprising a bridge arranged ahead for the cargo holds and an accommodation unit arranged lengthwise at a distance from the bridge in the direction of the stern.
