Brief description

GENERAL
T24C1
20 000 m Chemical & Product Tanker

The FKAB T24C1 is a 20 000 m3, TIER III oil product tanker for chemicals (IMO II
and III) and oil products. It is designed for low fuel consumption and high cargo
capacity with a density of 1,54 ton/m3 in an SECA area trade. The hull form is
designed for good performance in harsh weather conditions. The tanker is designed
for European waters considering the Stanlow locks, St. Lawrence Seaways, draught
restriction in various ports and keeping the total length below 150m. Vessel is
divided into 12 cargo tanks, of which one is dedicated for slop and 2 drain tanks on
deck. Complying with 12 grades.

The vessel is designed for good performance with Finnish/Swedish ice class 1A.

Propulsion is provided by a medium speed dual fuel engine with a gearbox with PTI/
PTO and shaft generator coupled to a CP propeller in nozzle. PTI ‘Take me home’
device through PTI from the auxiliaries. In order to save fuel the shaft generator is
running on various rpm allowing optimum propeller rpm at various speeds.

The general T24 design is obtainable with various main particulars, considering
restriction in ports and channels, with two and four stroke main engines, with steam
or thermal oil heating, electrical or hydraulic driven cargo pumps, propeller with
nozzle or without and with auxiliary engines tailor-made to customer demands.

 General:
The vessel is an ice strengthened Oil & Chemical Tanker of ship type 2, designed
for twelve segregations.

The ship is designed and constructed for unrestricted operation worldwide

carrying Oil/Chemical or Crude oil within the limit of Class Notation.

20 000 m Chemical & Product Tanker

The vessel is divided in forepeak, bow thrusters room, 2 x 6 tanks for cargo and
double hull tanks for water ballast, engine room, after peak with steering gear
room.
Double hull water ballast tanks are arranged in the whole length of the cargo
area. The water ballast tanks are of L-shaped type except for one set of tanks
that will be divided in bottom tanks and wing tanks.
The vessel is designed to burn primary Liquefied natural gas (LNG) with fuel
oil as pilot fuel and backup fuel. As an option the vessel is equipped for normal
heavy fuel oil operation, i.e. IFO380. The medium speed four stroke main engine
is capable of running on LNG and fuel oil, both MGO and IFO 380 sCt. LNG
storage tanks for fuel are located on weather deck forward.

The auxiliaries are used also for “take me home” device through the shaft
generator to the propeller. SCR systems for aux engines are arranged.

One closed longitudinal pipe tunnel between the poop and forecastle is
arranged, protecting the cargo system, cables and essential equipment and
pipes. A whale back is arranged on forecastle deck protecting equipment from
ice and green sea.

Accommodation is arranged with 19 single cabins, each with a separate WC/

shower room. To minimize sound the funnel and engine casing are separated
from the living quarters.

Oil tanks are protected against shell with void spaces or cofferdams for technical
freshwater.

Cargo
The cargo space to be divided into twelve cargo tanks, one of them dedicated for
slop.

The cargo tanks are designed for a maximum specific gravity of 1,54 t/m3, of
IMO II and III type and designed for a temperature between -10°C to 80°C. To
improve cleaning no stiffeners, stringers, web frames, brackets etc inside the
cargo/drain tanks.

For cargo spill on the weather deck as well in the pipe tunnel two circular
cargo/deck drain tanks with separate pumps are arranged. Residuals after
tank cleaning will also be collected in these tanks. The tanks are arranged on
upper deck. One drain pump for deck spill is arranged.

Cargo Handling system
All systems for cargo handling, heating control, level monitoring etc to be carried out
from the cargo control station in the wheelhouse. Cargo loading and discharging shall
be performed through the cargo manifolds at midship area. The ship are equipped
with 12 hydraulic or electric operated deep well cargo pumps, one pump for each
cargo and slop tank. If electric, it shall be fed from a frequency converters.

Each pump in the cargo/slop tanks to be mounted in a suction well made of stainless
steel.

The discharging capacity for each cargo pump is 300 m3/h at a pressure of 120 mLC
and spec gravity of 0,8 tonnes/m3.

The cargo handling system will be segregated in six (6) grades of cargoes. It is
possible using any converter to any pump. Cargo drain tanks are equipped with
electrical driven centrifugal pump for discharge of these tanks. Capacity of pump min
70 m3/h.

All cargo tanks have separate suction and drop lines and to have one separate
connection line to the manifold and overboard.

All manifolds are connected to each other via a double valve for segregation. Size (10”),
one of 12”.

Loading capacity
The total loading capacity to be min 1,200 m3/h delivered to any 2 tanks through any
cross over.
Loading capacity when loading through no 4 manifold to be 1,800 m3/h
Maximum discharge rate: 1,800 m3/h

The heating system

The heating system consists of a single steam system. All cargo tanks, slop tank are
heated by heat exchanger. Drain tanks are heated with coils. Two circuits are arranged
in each tank. Each system to be designed for 50 % required capacity.
