System Selection 8+ Weeks System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Type of Technology most suitable for vessel Single technology or multiple technologies based on vessel optimization, maintenance, stocking Supplier Research Experience, approvals, and availability Lifecycle Operating Cost Factors Cost of equipment acquisition, maintenance, operation, etc. 8 8
Pre-Engineering: 4-6 Weeks System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Most critical time for successful retrofit installations Must ensure selected systems will fit vessel space and operating profiles May be in-house or out-sourced engineering 9 9
Retrofit Pre-engineering Traditional, manual measuring and sketches can be used to plan work and estimate materials Fitting and fabricating pipe spools and foundations on board Relies greatly on experience of individual engineers Difficult to scale up to high project volume 10 10
New techniques and technology for efficiency and time savings Laser Scanning and 3D modeling Prefabrication of pipe spools and foundations Assemble on board in a short window of time Identify interferences and critical joints early in the design process 11 11
Laser Scan Prefab piping & assemble (Vessel alongside) 12 12
Ship Visit: 1 Week System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Engineering team should visit as many ships as available to verify suitability and existing drawings If possible, installers or manufacturers may attend to identify possible issues/concerns Ship Owners may visit supplier factories to verify capabilities 13 13
Purchase: 4 Weeks System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Negotiate purchase price & delivery times Identify critical stages of contract performance Set Installation/Commissioning expectations Determine location of delivery and installation of equipment (vessel, shipyard, staging facility) If desired, negotiate fleet contracts & guarantees of pricing and availability 14 14
Ship Specific Engineering: 2-6 Weeks System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Timing of this phase is greatly affected by amount of pre-engineering completed Integrate system with ship s drawings and develop the Class submittal packages Address ship crews specific concerns and needs Changes during retrofit installation are more costly and impactful than changes during engineering phases 15 15
Laser Scan: Equipment location and piping 16 16
Design pipe spools and prefabricate piping for short drydocking 17 17
Submittal to Class Society: 6-12 Weeks System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning All systems require submittal of installation drawings to Class & BWM Plan will require submittal to Flag State IMO Type Approval does not guarantee suitability for specific ships/services Some flag states require specific approval of BWTS (Liberia, US) Time may increase based upon review comments and incomplete submittals and timing in retrofit bubble Submittals must be done by Owners or Installers Only Owners and Installers have access to ship s drawings and piping/electrical/structural modifications planned 18 18
Manufacturing: 16 Weeks System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Manufacturing times will vary greatly due to market demand and order books Filters and other sub-components may be critical path for system deliveries Owners with fleet agreements can guarantee place in production schedule 19 19
Delivery to Shipyard/Vessel: 2 8 Weeks System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Critical to establish delivery location in advance to account for shipping times Sea freight will save costs, but require advance planning Air freight of larger systems may be impossible 20 20
Pre-Fabrication: 2 4 Weeks System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Good engineering plans and highly developed work scopes will increase efficiency of pre-fabrication Manufacturers may recommend installation partners familiar with their systems Pre-fabrication key to successful installation 21 21
Installation: 1 4+ Weeks System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning May be completed in shipyard or underway Riding gangs may require more time due to operational concerns Lack of pre-engineering or poorly designed work scopes will extend installation periods 22 22
In service or during drydock? In Service installation benefits: No vessel off-hire or down time May be done before compliance date to ensure if system start up is not smooth that vessel may continue to trade and move ballast Risks: Project duration based on riding team size Many potential pitfalls: Challenging logistics Limited access to materials/supplies Restricted access to ballast system while underway, bad weather, and other operational issues can affect schedule No Off-Hire time but may incur other costs Lost cabin revenue for cruise ships Change in loading/ballasting rates 23 23
In Service 24 24
In Service fit and fabricate in place 25 25
In Service or during drydock? Drydock installation benefits: Vessel out of water easy to access sea chests and ballast system Easy access to manpower, supplies, materials needed to complete installation Heavy lift capabilities Access to machinery spaces easier through hull access cuts Risks: Shipyard scope may interfere with BWMS installation work Delays in installation may increase time on dock, shipyard period Compliance dates tied to drydocking may require systems to work before vessel leaves the shipyard 26 26
During Drydock Cruise Ship (fit and fabricate CuNi pipe) 27 27
Innovative Integration Solutions Equipment location Installation on deck Modular installation in machinery space Conversion of ballast tanks Use innovative piping methods/materials 28 28
Commissioning: 3 Days (optimum) System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Typically done by Manufacturer or certified agent Includes time for crew training and operational familiarization Includes Class Acceptance trials 29 29
Caution: 45 Weeks is Very Optimistic System Selection Pre- Engineering Ship Visit Purchase Engineer for ship Submittal to Class Delivery to ship Prefabrication Installation Commissioning Many chances for delays or problems in the process Experience is key when selecting partners Shipyard availabilities may have limited room for slippage Early work and planning pays late dividends! 30 30
Strategies To Reduce Timeline Establish a fleet wide project team with experience in capital projects Project Manager Engineering resources Shipboard crew involvement Installation contractors Focus on logistics Create lessons learned for each project Do not wait until your compliance date to start the process 31 31
BALLAST WATER RETROFIT CASE STUDY: UNDERWAY RETROFIT 32 32
Case Study: Cruise Ship 2003 Installed by carried out by Owner-selected contractor underway Supervision of installation and commissioning done by HMI 60+ days from start of installation to commissioning 33 33
Case Study: Cruise Ship 2006 Installed by underway during normal cruise schedule Mechanically installed by the crew in just four days. According to the crew, It was a piece of cake! 42 days from start of installation to commissioning 34 34
Case Study: Cruise Ship 2011 Installed by Owner-preferred Contractor during normal vessel schedule Supervised by Hyde Marine 21 days from start of installation to commissioning 35 35
Case Study: Cruise Ship 2013 Tenth installation for vessel Owner Underway retrofit Owner directed third party contractor Installation supervised by Hyde Marine 25 days from start of installation through commissioning 36 36
Lessons Applied Ship visit is critical to identify best available location for BWTS component Experienced partnerships cut down install times and re-work Planning for all operational modes may affect the installation plans (ie: gravity ballasting and deballasting) 37 37
The Test is Coming US Regulations are coming into force and ship owners now face hard compliance deadlines Some owners have gained some experience but MANY questions remain: Flag and Class requirements and design concerns Port State compliance and inspection requirements Equipment performance and reliability Equipment installation partners and capability Limited real retrofit experience in engineering and installation sectors, particularly with large capacity, multitrain systems 38 38
What you can do Develop and refine the retrofit processes and engineering toolbox to efficiently handle the upcoming retrofit demands Traditional tape measure engineering and in-place fabrication may need to be replaced by more efficient techniques despite increased upfront costs Gain as much experience as possible before compliance is enforced 39 39
