We are pleased to share that for the first time, esteemed Boomsma Shipping and BLRT REPAIR YARDS have joined forces to ensure efficient maritime operations

General cargo vessel FRISIAN SEA of Boomsma Shipping underwent a special survey at one of BLRT Repair Yards in Tallinn – a comprehensive examination to assess and ensure its integrity, #safety, and compliance with Class requirements.

To align with #environmental regulations and sustainable shipping, specialists at our retrofit department have installed a Headway OceanGuard BWMS HMT-300 ballast water treatment system.

We’ve followed every step of the project execution and proudly unveiled the result!

Silicone paints provide a smooth, sleek finish that enhances the vessel’s appearance and ensures a long-lasting protective barrier, extending the vessel’s lifespan and its coating, which is crucial for both operational and environmental sustainability.

Witness the vessel’s incredible journey to efficiency and sustainability. Explore a new look in the video reference 👇

Tallinn Shipyard, üks kolmest BLRT Repair Yardsi laevaremonditehasest, paigaldas laevandusettevõtte Amisco kaubalaevale DANITA esimese õhkmäärde süsteemi DACS, mis on Damen Shipyards Groupi ja Delfti Tehnikaülikooli ühislahendus.

Damen Air Cavity System (DACS) tehnoloogia tööpõhimõte seisneb selles, et vette tekitatakse väikestest õhumullidest koosnev kiht, mis katab laevakere ühtlase õhukese õhupadjana, mille tulemusena väheneb hõõrdetakistus laevakere ja vee kokkupuutealal. Suure kerepinnaga laevadel vähendab nimetatud meetod kütusekulu kuni 15%, samuti heitkoguseid ning parandab aluse töö tõhusust.

Tallinn Shipyardi juhatuse liige Sergei Kravtšenko sõnas, et laevaremonditehase meeskonnal on väga hea meel, et nende pikaajaline partner, Eesti laevandusettevõte Amisco, usaldas projekti elluviimise just Tallinn Shipyardile. „Püüdleme täiuslikkuse poole kõiges, mida ette võtame, ning meie siht on rakendada meretööstuses uusi tehnoloogiaid. Tänu meie kvalifitseeritud meeskonna aastatepikkusele kogemusele ja teadmistele olime taoliseks väljakutseks valmis. See teedrajav tehnoloogia parandab kahtlemata laeva sõiduomadusi, panustab keskkonnasõbralikumasse ja puhtamasse tulevikku ning säästvamasse arengusse. Oleme uhked, et saime selles projektis osaleda.“

Laias laastus on õhkmäärde süsteem töökindel ja usaldusväärne, ei vaja pidevat tähelepanu ja hooldust ning tagab teiste tehnoloogiatega võrreldes pikaajalise usaldusväärse toimimise.

Tänu Danital evitatud õhkmäärde tehnoloogiale läbib Amisco süsiniku intensiivsuse indikaatori (Carbon Intensity Indicator – CII) hindamise, mida laevandusettevõte vajab, et jätkata tegevust Läänemerel uute, rangemate laevade energiatõhususe reeglite järgi, et vältida merekeskkonna reostamist. Ühtlasi võimaldab laeva kütusekulu märkimisväärne vähenemine ettevõttel oma investeeringud kiiresti tagasi teenida.

In Mid- February, Turku Repair Yard, one of BLRT Repair Yards, members of BLRT Grupp was honoured to welcome SEYCHELLES PATRIOT, a 189.02m- long 1A ice-class oil product tanker managed by German shipping company GTS Shipmanagement GmbH & Co KG for regular 5-year service in accordance with the requirements of the Classification Society.
 
In addition to standard service, team Turku Repair Yard also carried out such works as:

–  Hull treatment and painting
–  Repairs of different piping systems
–  Steel replacement
–  Overhaul of electric motors
–  Overhaul of anchor winches
–  Other routine jobs

24. veebruaril tähistame Eesti Vabariigi 105. sünnipäeva.

In mid-January, floating dock 12 which happens to be the largest floating dock in the Baltics, welcomed a 234.06 m long and 35.33 m wide car carrier DELPHINE for repairs and maintenance.

Because RoRo Cargo DELPHINE is the largest car carrier accepted for repairs in the history of the Western Shiprepair, one of BLRT Repair Yards, project preparation required even more detailed and precise approach, including preparation of the documentation for the docking operation.

DELPHINE underwent First Special Survey with additional:

– overhaul of the steering and propulsion group including five (5) thrusters

– installation of the foundations for wind rotors

– other routine jobs

DELPHINE is managed by the world-famous company Anglo-Eastern – a leading global provider of ship management services.

The company manages  over 600 vessels in its fleet and deservedly named one of the largest ship operators in the world.

Worth mentioning, that this is not the first project that was implemented in cooperation with Anglo-Eastern company.

A few years back, team BLRT Repair Yards in Klaipeda successfully repaired Federal type bulk carriers managed by Anglo-Eastern.

Yesterday, on January 23, a splendid keel-laying ceremony for the floating dock being built for BLRT Grupp took place at Hat-San Shipyard

A 180m long and 30m wide dock is currently under construction at HAT-SAN Shipyard and will be Tallinn Shipyard’s largest one, opening up the possibility to accommodate #Handysize vessels.

“I am delighted that the work is going according to schedule and will be completed in spring 2024. The new dock will secure the further #expansion of our vessel repair and upgrade capabilities and contribute to reducing environmental impact.”- said Chairman of the Management Board of Tallinn Shipyard Sergey Kravchenko

The event was attended by the Estonian Ambassador to Turkey, Anneli Kolk, and Deputy Minister of Transport and Infrastructure of Turkey, Selim Dursun.

Our team is proud and happy! Here`s a sneak peek at a ceremony.

In December, Tallinn Shipyard repaired the multi-purpose ship Alaskaborg, thus completing maintenance of all A-type ships owned by the Royal Wagenborg shipping company. 

Over the past three years, from 2020 to 2022, – the yard has maintained 14 A-type vessels, with four of them – Amazoneborg, Avonborg, Americaborg and Alaskaborg – undergoing repairs in 2022. 

On top of general maintenance, most of the Royal Wagenborg vessels coming to BLRT Repair Yards also had #bwts installed. For instance, in 2020, Tallinn Shipyard professionals fitted BWTS onto 13 vessels of the long-standing partner, 15 – in 2021 and 9 – in 2022. 

Royal Wagenborg considers the Ocean Health initiative of great importance, which is why the company has set an #ambitious target to install at least 20 ballast water treatment systems per year. And BLRT Repair Yards are proud to be able to share the #goal!

Teraselõikamise tseremooniaga algas ehitustöö, mille käigus toodetakse Tallinnas asuvale BLRT Grupi laevaremonditehasele uut dokki. 

180 meetri pikkune, 30 meetri laiune ja 10 000-tonnise kandevõimega ujuvdokk valmib kava kohaselt 2024. aasta kevadel Hat-San Shipyard’i laevatehases Türgis.

Ehitatav dokk vahetab välja senise 155 meetri pikkuse ja 27 meetri laiuse ujuvdoki ning sinna saab tõsta ka Handysize-suuruses laevu.

Kontserni laevaremonditehastes Eestis, Leedus ja Soomes remonditakse, ajakohastatakse ja hooldatakse üle 270 aluse aastas. Uue doki soetamine võimaldab Tallinn Shipyard’i laevaremonditehasel avardada oma võimalusi, teenindades suuremaid laevu. Ka saavad Eesti sadamatesse sisenevad laevad, mis varem pidid tehniliste võimaluste puudumise tõttu suunduma teistesse kontserni laevatehastesse, tulla peatselt valmiva doki ilmudes Tallinn Shipyard’i.

„Uue doki ehitamine on kontserni laevaremondi tegevussuuna investeeringukava järgmine etapp, mille eesmärk on oluliselt laiendada laevaomanikele pakutavaid võimalusi meie laevatehastes. Oleme mainitud tegevusharusse investeerinud viimase viie aasta jooksul üle 75 miljoni euro ning see töö jätkub ka tulevikus,“ selgitas BLRT Grupi juhatuse liige Veronika Ivanovskaja.

Doki ehitusleping sõlmiti tänavu suve lõpus.

BLRT Grupp on Läänemere regiooni üks suurimaid tööstuskontserne. BLRT Gruppi kuulub kolm laevaremonditehast – Tallinn Shipyard Eestis, Western Shiprepair Leedus ja Turku Repair Yard Soomes, mis pakuvad laevade remondi ja moderniseerimise tervikteenuseid ööpäev läbi.
