GATHERING THE INDUSTRY PIONEERS

Transcription

1 UPDATE #FEB 2015 ADVANCING MARITIME LEADERSHIP DUTCH EXPERTISE IN OFFSHORE INNOVATIVE DREDGING SOLUTIONS ROTTERDAM CENTRE STAGE GATHERING THE INDUSTRY PIONEERS Innovation is the lifeblood of the maritime industry, and it is Europort s willingness to provide the forum for the industry s innovators that has proved the secret of its sustained success. Clearly, the event s location at the heart of Europe s transport network offers a benefit, but the ability to innovate demands more than opportunism. True innovation requires a commitment to adapt, and the readiness to think outside the comfort zone. These are qualities that have become synonymous with Dutch maritime technology, whose innovations have been embraced worldwide, making Europort the natural forum for bringing innovation to the fore on the international stage. Innovation is not simply a topic for technologists all aspects of the way business is done can benefit from innovative thinking: finance; collaboration across stakeholders; logistics; recruitment and retention; communications, etc. Europort understands the increasing importance of maximising productivity within the sector and minimising cost burdens. It has identified four key themes to explore, where innovation underpins success. Technological Leadership The research carried out by engineers and scientists in universities and industry can be critical to pushing forward the boundaries of design, construction and operation of marine vessels and structures but these concepts need to add tangible value. The Dutch maritime cluster has been particularly adept at bringing together all partners within the industry to collaborate on technology advancement and nowhere is this more notable than at Europort. Where domestic and international participants share their knowledge and experience to encourage further advances in the industry bore witness to the announcement of some industry world firsts, from the first CNG carrier to the first LNG fuelled drillship and the world s first LNG bunkering vessel. The future holds opportunity for further development in such technologies as; air bubble lubrication and air cavity systems, hybrid materials and hybrid propulsion concepts, not to mention future fuels and fuel management innovations. Ship Efficiency All players are looking to take their cost efficiency to the next level: reduce costs, maximise efficiency and effectiveness and optimise resources. In part, regulatory changes are driving innovation in this area, but the demand for clean and smart ships is becoming increasingly more important for more commercial reasons. Concepts that contribute to ships being better equipped for their many tasks at sea and/or making the costs of construction and operation lower are highly desirable in this increasingly competitive marketplace. New Market Opportunities Offshore wind, ocean energy (tidal and waves), arctic shipping, offshore energy exploration and deep-sea mining are all highly specialised markets, but each of them offers emerging opportunities to the more adventurous investor. Given Europe s strength in harnessing economic potential through advanced engineering, significant growth potential through effective RDI could be realised. Europort is particularly well-placed to offer insight into these evolving markets, for example; inland shipping, as increasing opportunities arise for development within BRIC countries. Human Capital The entire industry continues to face a profound challenge when it comes to attracting and retaining talent within maritime professions. Collaboration is needed across the spectrum, from business to government, to ensure that the maritime sector is appealing to those thinking about embarking on a career but also to more experienced staff. Both governments and private enterprises are keenly aware of the challenges ahead, and it is no coincidence that Europort exhibits will include innovative concepts to tackle these issues, for example; higher speed internet connectivity products and walk-to-work vessels designed to accommodate maintenance engineers with a background outside seafaring. 1 ADVANCING MARITIME LEADERSHIP

2 EUROPORT 2015, ON TRACK TO BE LARGER THAN EVER! For several editions, Europort has been completely sold out. Europort 2015 will see an increase in hall capacity to meet the demand from exhibitors. A total exhibition space of 45,000 m² will be created with the expansion of hall 8. 90% of the available space has already been reserved and confirmed exhibitors include many international industry leaders as well as 16 national pavilions. For a complete overview of all the currently confirmed exhibitors, see the back page of this newsletter or visit SULPHUR DIRECTIVE HITS HOME Photographer Henk Zuur 2015 starts as an interesting year for the industry with the ushering in of the sulphur regulations in emission control areas (ECAs). The scope and cost implications are unprecedented and, with no clear best system of compliance tried and tested in the industry, there is a prevailing air of uncertainty. Europort 2015 will provide an exceptionally timely opportunity for participants to share their experiences with partners on lessons learned in practice and the realities of compliance. A survey entitled Monitoring Economic Impact of Low Sulphur Requirements initiated by the European Community Shipowners Association (ECSA) is monitoring the shipping industry s response to the sulphur content limits set for fuel from 1 January 2015, while also ascertaining the economic implications. This is an important initiative to ascertain the actual effects of the regulations and enable the most efficient response to be identified. Europort anticipates that regulatory focus on emissions reduction is unlikely to relent and companies that have taken the initiative by forming partnerships with relevant stakeholders and trialling solutions ahead of time are more likely to find the most efficient compliance solutions. The survey emanates from the European Sustainable Shipping Forum (ESSF), the European Commission initiative tasked with assessing and coordinating progress towards compliance, and exchanging best practices. Its findings will be based on factual information gathered from ship operators active in Europe s existing Sulphur Emission Control Areas currently the North Sea, Baltic Sea and the English Channel. An initial monitoring phase, starting in late autumn 2014 and running throughout 2015, focuses mainly on qualitative indicators of economic impact, as perceived by ship operators via an on-line survey. Comprehensive analysis will be developed in 2015, providing a fuller explanation of relevant factors, including the incremental costs involved in different approaches to meeting the EU Sulphur Directive, as well as other issues that may have affected the competitiveness of maritime shipping, and possible counteractions. The survey is addressed to ship operators who are wholly or partly active in the European Sulphur Emission Control Areas and will be repeated on a quarterly basis throughout We strongly encourage ship operators to take part in this survey as it is very important to get an accurate picture of the situation before and after the entry into force of the new sulphur rules commented Patrick Verhoeven, ECSA Secretary-General. Numerous reports have already been published on the implementation of the new sulphur rules and the risks of a modal backshift (from sea to landbased transport), but so far these have primarily been based on forecasts. The fact-based information gathered from this survey will offer realistic insights for those preparing a business case to operate in ECAs. 2 ADVANCING MARITIME LEADERSHIP

3 The new sulphur emission regulations have been a hotly contended issue from the start but now debate has moved to their implementation, or more accurately, enforcing compliance. The enforcement of these regulations will be the driver of change, not the regulations themselves. Europort envisages opportunities for innovation not just in relation to the technologies employed in order to be compliant but also in relation to enforcement. Imaginative tools for detection abound, ranging from technology on vessels to sniff out the use of heavy fuel oil to unmanned drones with emission sensors. COMPLIANCE SHOULDN T BE A CHOICE! The Alliance has attracted some 31 member companies to date, including leading Dutch ship owners Spliethoff, Transfennica and Biglift. Spliethoff is glad to note that states like the Netherlands and Finland have sharpened their enforcement policy, says Sjoerd Hupkes Wijnstra environmental strategist and spokesman for the Spliethoff Group. We are also pleased with the coordinating work on enforcement done by the European Sustainable Shipping Forum. Much work remains to be done, though. Shipowners and operators should be deciding on which strategy to embrace for compliance not deciding whether or not to comply. However, inconsistent and weak rule enforcement, together with the prospect of potential punishments that are often insignificant, can create a cost differential that amounts to a temptation not to comply at all. Industry analyst SeaIntel recently revealed in a survey: Our analysis showed that a 4,500 teu vessel sailing at 16 knots from the entrance of the Channel to Hamburg, using 1% sulphur fuel instead of the mandated 0.1%, would save EUR12,000 six times more than the German fine, and that is just one way. However, failure to ensure uniform compliance with the sulphur emission limits will significantly distort the competition between shipowners globally, as it will not be sustainable for a compliant ship to compete with another ship operating in noncompliance. A level playing field is commercially critical for owners and without it there is a danger of a two-tier market developing. This would not be beneficial to the industry as a whole in the long-term; nor is it conducive to technological advancement. Europort, in line with its position of supporting innovation and pioneering measures in relation to ship efficiency, is endorsing a responsible industry that looks to mitigate this risk by forming a coalition of shipowners and operators who share the common interest in consistent and robust enforcement of maritime sulphur regulations. The Trident Alliance is mainly focused on raising awareness of the issue, supported by member companies transparency on enforcement, as well as on initiatives to foster innovation in enforcement technology. The Trident Alliance s cause has recently been strengthened, with BIMCO adding its voice to the call on governments to exercise robust enforcement of sulphur limits applicable to ships operating in Emission Control Areas. Following discussion at its recent board meeting, BIMCO President John Denholm described this position as crucial to maintaining a level playing field for shipping companies operating in Emission Control Areas (ECAs) and ensuring that compliant companies were not left at a disadvantage. The President said: The maritime industry will shortly experience an unprecedented rise in operating costs as countries bordering ECAs implement very low limits for sulphur content in the fuel oils used by ships. BIMCO is calling on the governments of these countries to exercise robust enforcement of applicable sulphur limits to ensure a continued level playing field for ships operating in ECAs. Failure to do so would seriously expose compliant shipowners and operators who are bearing the high cost of ultra-low sulphur diesel oil. INNOVATIVE DREDGING SOLUTIONS In direct response to the need for more sustainable processes, CEDA Dredging Days 2015 will focus on innovative dredging solutions for ports and present the latest technical and scientific developments. The CEDA Dredging Days conference and exhibition will take place on 5-6 November 2015 at Ahoy Rotterdam, in conjunction with Europort In addition, the 2015 conference will cover best practice relating to maintenance and capital dredging in ports and access channels and the management of sediments including the sediment balance of the broader port environment. Dredging and the management of sediments are key elements in the sustainable development and operation of most ports. There is a growing call for them to become greener, more environmentally aware and more responsible with regard to operations. As a result, innovative and costeffective solutions that meet both economic and environmental objectives and offer opportunities for enhancing or creating natural ecosystems around the port are increasingly important. Achieving this will need advanced dredging technology and a thorough understanding of the natural processes around ports including the effects of climate change. The Central Dredging Association (CEDA) Dredging Days is the primary international dredging conference and is widely considered as an invaluable forum for leading researchers and industry experts to discuss and share dredging challenges, solutions and experiences.

4 Photo: van der Kloet Foto & Videoprocucties DUTCH EXPERTISE LEADS IN THE OFFSHORE SECTOR The global offshore industry continues to rank Dutch offshore expertise as among its first ports of call when seeking design innovation. Projects are becoming more and more complex in the offshore industry, and mostly this also means more expensive. Companies therefore need to come up with innovative solutions to remain competitive, efficient and effective. Dutch companies are leading in this aspect, which is nice to see and also very promising for 2015, commented Sander Vergroesen, Managing Director of IRO, the Association of Dutch Suppliers in the Oil and Gas Industry, and Member of the Europort Advisory Board. Designs for offshore support vessels, mobile drilling units and accommodation platforms, and associated marine equipment, place the Dutch cluster at the forefront of some of the most forward-looking offshore projects in the oil and gas and wind energy sectors. At the ASME rd International Conference on Ocean, Offshore and Arctic Engineering (OMAE) in San Francisco, Dutch offshore expertise was singled out for particular praise. Director Bas Buchner of MARIN was presented with the OMAE Conference Industry Achievement Award in recognition of significant contributions to the technological advancement of the offshore industry through his leadership in MARIN. Dutch heavy transport specialists also continue to lead the market with boundary-shifting projects, the deployment of ever-larger vessels and the development of new techniques and transport and installation methods. Specialised Dutch shipowners currently occupy a substantial share of the European market. They represent 64% of the heavy lift sector and 23% of the market for jack-ups, as well as controlling 23% of all cable laying vessels. Dutch ship repair yards are also highly competitive when it comes to carrying out specialist inspection, repair, maintenance and modification work on mobile drilling units, crane vessels and pipelaying vessels. Dutch contractors control a large proportion of the market when it comes to installation of jackets and topsides on oil and gas production platforms, wellhead platforms, compression platforms, TLPs and FPSOs. One source of the continuing success lies in an ability to adapt to changing market demand. Dutch shipyards, for example, set the standard when it comes to the sheer variety of design options available for platform supply vessels, fast-crew suppliers, tugs, anchor-handling tug supply vessels, chasers, and pipelaying vessels. Frontrunners include IHC Merwede, who will be exhibiting at Europort in IHC Merwede, whose reputation is secure in the hi-tech dredging sector, is increasingly turning its attention to advanced pipelaying vessels, multifunctional offshore construction vessels and diving support vessels. Other companies involved in the Dutch offshore sector already confirmed as exhibitors for Europort 2015 include Atlas Professionals, Bakker Sliedrecht, Damen Shipyards, Econosto, Euro Offshore, GEA Westfalia Separator, Georg Fischer, Innovative Input, IRM Offshore, Keppel Verolme, Krohne, MELCAL, Remontowa, Trelleborg and Voith Turbo. 4 ADVANCING MARITIME LEADERSHIP

5 ROTTERDAM CENTRE STAGE has eight arms on its bow that can clamp to the supporting struts of an oil platform and lift it onto the ship using its massive lift system. The vessel will feature the largest and most sophisticated motion compensated handling system ever developed, which should allow for a platform to be held perfectly still even in 3m-4m high waves. A pair of portal cranes at the rear of the ship, together with a tilting beam system, removes the steel jacket from the ocean, laying it horizontally, ready to transport. It has a capacity to lift topsides of offshore platforms weighing up to 48,000 tonnes and jackets up to 25,000 tonnes. Europort s focus on specialised shipbuilding could not be better illustrated than with the arrival of the world s largest crane ship on its doorstep. The Allseas Pioneering Spirit, essentially a giant catamaran, is 382m long with a breadth of 124m, making it shorter but wider than the Maersk Triple-E-class container ship. The unique vessel is based on the concept of joining two large tankers rigidly, with a slot at the bows to lift platforms in one piece, according to Kristian Hall from the ship s Swiss owners, Allseas. The Pioneering Spirit isn t remarkable simply because of its size or design; it is also a cross between a ship and a giant robot. It s a dual-purpose vessel designed to lay undersea oil and gas pipelines as well as to install and remove offshore drilling platforms. To enable the latter, it The vessel was constructed section-bysection at the Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering shipyard in South Korea, on a giant floating dock in Okpo-dong harbour. The final phases of construction, however, is currently taking place in the Alexiahaven at Maasvlakte 2 in The Netherlands, a specially designed and dredged berth capable of accommodating the unprecedented scale of the vessel. At the Maastvlakte 2 facility the 65m long beams of the topside lift system will be installed and the vessel should then enter service later in The project has challenged convention with the realisation of an initial concept that effectively tied two tankers together to form the world s largest catamaran. The project has taken a long time to come to fruition, a testament to the complexity involved but there are already plans for a much larger sistership, earmarked for delivery in Together, these vessels have the potential to revolutionise offshore decommissioning, especially within the North Sea region. VESSELS FOR THE FUTURE In recognition of the need to reinforce targeted R&D and innovation efforts, interests across the European maritime industry have joined forces in the Vessels for the Future initiative. Launched in late 2014, the Public Private Partnership (PPP) is overseen by the European Research Association and involves 50 companies, research institutes, academic organisations and interested associations. Europort s focus on complex specialised vessels is given support with a new European maritime industry initiative. The initiative aims to encourage synergies already existing within Europe s maritime business cluster, stimulating integration among shipbuilders, equipment suppliers, research bodies and classification societies. Europe s highly skilled workforce and its investment in R&D position it as the leader in the development of high-tech, safe and efficient ships. The Vessels of the Future project has been conceived to ensure European-built ships remain at the industry s cutting edge, in pursuit of new markets and new opportunities for business. The initiative strikes a direct accord with the themes and principles underpinning Europort 2015 and coincides with the Europort-organised conference Vessels of the Future which will run in conjunction with the exhibition. Europort Exhibition Manager, Raymond Siliakus commented that Europort strongly believes that the solutions and tools needed to stay ahead in today s challenging environment will come from innovation in technology. It will be the leaders in this area that drive the industry forward as a whole. Europort is focused on supporting maritime and offshore leadership by facilitating the development and distribution of ground-breaking technology. Secretary General of SEA Europe and Europort Advisory Board Member, Douwe Cunningham, said: The recognition that Europe should be a world leader in maritime research and innovation of new technologies strikes a particular chord with the European technology manufacturing industry. The solutions for overcoming many of the environmental, safety and societal challenges stem from the European manufacturers innovative evolution of the smallest equipment to integrated systems and complex specialised vessels. Advanced technologies, continuous investment in research, development and innovation of products and production methods are a key driver to enhance the European maritime technology industries competitiveness. The PPP approach will support a range of demonstration projects, and is considered to be the most effective way of transferring research results to the market via industrial partners in terms of cost/benefit and performance. Dr. Pierre C. Sames (DNV GL), Chairman of the European Research Association, added: With the establishment of Vessels for the Future as a Research Association we are demonstrating that our goal is receiving widespread support from the wider maritime community. We look forward to working with the European Commission to conclude the exchanges and bring the initiative into action. ADVANCING MARITIME LEADERSHIP 5

6 EUROPORT CHAMPIONS ENTREPRE- NEURS IN BID TO FOSTER INNOVATION Recognising that innovation is about people, Europort aims to match the passion brought by new entrepreneurs to the wider industry by offering them a stage on which to present their businesses to a global maritime audience. As a proponent of advancing maritime leadership, Europort has devised the New-2-Market format as a unique meeting and networking opportunity for innovative technology-driven entrepreneurs fresh to the market. The Europort New-2-Market package offers any company with a start date after January 2013 the chance to participate in one of the world s leading maritime exhibitions at a reduced rate. The package includes a specially-designed 8 m 2 stand with full branding in a dedicated exhibition area for the innovations of tomorrow. In addition, New-2-Market exhibitors receive supporting press release distribution services, promotion on the Europort website, and feature opportunities in both app and print collateral materials. Speaker s corner give your company a voice at Europort 2015! Exhibitors are offered an exclusive opportunity to make a 20 minute presentation at Europort The cost is 500 per 20 minute time slot and includes the use of a laptop, projector, audio equipment and projection screen. To guarantee a good variety of topics and speakers, each exhibitor can reserve a maximum of 2 slots per day or 8 slots over the four days. All presentations should be in English. IS THE FUTURE UNMANNED? For many in the industry the question of attracting and retaining the skilled workers needed to run their shipping operations is a constant challenge. Europort is calling attention to this strategically important issue by designating it as one of the core themes to be explored in MARE FORUM SHIP FINANCE CONFERENCE a shipping concept that looks to being a different dimension to shortsea shipping s competitive case against rail and road modes. However, recent technical developments have reignited interest in an alternative approach: dispensing with the need for a crew altogether! Once more, potential cost savings and the fact that 85% of ship accidents are attributable to human error are being advanced as persuasive arguments for full automation. One company that is exhibiting at Europort in 2015 has already progressed further than the what if? stage. Classification society DNV GL has reached the test phase in Norway, using a 1:20 scale model, of its automated short sea ship of the future. ReVolt envisages a vessel that is greener, smarter and safer than conventionally fuelled and operated vessels. Autonomous, fully battery powered and highly efficient, the ReVolt ship model embodies Instead of using diesel fuel, the ReVolt vessel will be powered by a 3,000 kwh battery. This will reduce operating costs by minimizing the number of high maintenance parts such as rotational components. The vessel has a range of 100 nautical miles, before the battery needs to be recharged. If the energy required for that is harnessed from renewable sources, this would eliminate carbon dioxide emissions. With no crew, there is no need for crew facilities such as the superstructure on board this vessel. The resulting increase in loading capacity, as well as low operating and maintenance costs, mean that compared to a diesel-run ship ReVolt could save up to US$34 million during its estimated 30-yearlife-time. Building and operating this vessel would be possible with today s technology. ReVolt is intended to serve as inspiration for equipment makers, shipyards and shipowners to develop new solutions on the path to a safe and sustainable future, says Hans Anton Tvete, Senior Researcher at DNV GL. Monday 2 November, the day before Europort officially opens its doors, sees the return of the Mare Forum Ship Finance Conference to Rotterdam. International shipowners, bankers, lawyers, key investors, financial institutions, trading and brokerage companies, consultants, classification societies, regulators and other members of the international maritime community will gather to discuss the contemporary and pertinent themes in ship finance and ship investment that are crucial to advancing maritime leadership. 6 ADVANCING MARITIME LEADERSHIP
