SCF Sakhalin , designed by Aker Arctic ,
48-474: A vessel's LOA, because it excludes other parts attached to the hull, such as bowsprits . Another measure of length is LWL ( loaded waterline length ) which is more useful in assessing a vessel's performance. In some cases (particularly old yachts or vessels with bowsprits ) LWL can be considerably shorter than LOA.

64-427: Is a double acting ship , meaning that its bow is designed for more efficient operation in open water and stern for the most severe ice conditions. The vessel, winterized for operating temperatures as low as −40 °C (−40 °F), is capable of breaking level ice up to 1.5 metres (4.9 ft) thick at 2 knots and penetrate 20-metre (65.6 ft) ridges with a 4-metre (13.1 ft) consolidated layer. In open water
80-451: Is an open joint stock company in Russia which unites shipbuilding, repair and maintenance subsidiaries in western and northern Russia, and in the country's Far East , to streamline civilian shipbuilding using military facilities. USC is the 100% owner of Arctech Helsinki Shipyard , having bought the remaining 50% of the shares from its joint venture partner STX Finland Cruise Oy . In 2016,
96-482: Is usually measured on the hull alone. For sailing ships , this may exclude the bowsprit and other fittings added to the hull. This is how some racing boats and tall ships use the term LOA. However, other sources may include bowsprits in LOA. Confusingly, LOA has different meanings. "Sparred length", "Total length including bowsprit", "Mooring length" and "LOA including bowsprit" are other expressions that might indicate
112-469: The Arkutun-Dagi offshore oil field. Length overall Length overall ( LOA , o/a , o.a. or oa ) is the maximum length of a vessel's hull measured parallel to the waterline. This length is important while docking the ship. It is the most commonly used way of expressing the size of a ship, and is also used for calculating the cost of a marina berth (for example, £2.50 per metre LOA). LOA
128-577: The Far Eastern Shipbuilding and Maintenance Center in Vladivostok . The state owns 100% of the shares. In June 2012 Andrei Dyachkov was appointed to its president. On May 21, 2013, Russian President Putin said that Vladimir Shmakov would be appointed as a new president of the corporation the following week. On 29 July 2014, the company was sanctioned by the United States. In 2017,
144-751: The company's revenue amounted to 49 billion rubles. As of 2021, the corporation constructed up to 80% of ships in Russia. United Shipbuilding Corporation was established in 2007 by a series of Presidential Decrees signed by President Vladimir Putin . According to the decree, the corporation has 3 subsidiaries: the Western Shipbuilding Center in St. Petersburg ( Admiralty Shipyard ), the Northern Shipbuilding and Maintenance Center in Severodvinsk and
160-501: The full length of a sailing ship. Often used to distinguish between the length of a vessel including projections (e.g. bow sprits, etc.) from the length of the hull itself, the Length on Deck or LOD is often reported. This is especially useful for smaller sailing vessels, as their LOA can be significantly different from their LOD. In ISO 8666 for small boats, there is a definition of LOH , or length of hull . This may be shorter than
176-422: The icebreaking supply ship is 9,980 tons and its deadweight tonnage is 4,298 tons, gross tonnage 6,882 and net tonnage 2,065. To supply offshore drilling platforms the ship can carry 1,000 tons of cargo on the 700 m (7,535 sq ft) stern deck and 1,500 tons of liquid cargo in its cargo tanks. In addition it has six 50 m silos for bulk powder cargoes such as barite and cement . While operated by

#1732872421054192-497: The ship has a service speed of 15 knots. The ship has a diesel-electric powertrain with three eight-cylinder Wärtsilä 8L38B 4-stroke medium-speed diesel engines, each with a maximum continuous rating of 5,800 kW (7,778 hp) at 600 rpm, driving 6,847 kVA generators that produce electricity for all shipboard consumers. In addition the vessel has one six-cylinder Wärtsilä 6L20 auxiliary generating set, producing 1,080 kW (1,448 hp) at 1000 rpm, that can be used when
208-615: The ship has two KaMeWa Ulstein TT2200 bow thrusters with high ice class, 1,100 kW each. In 2003 by the Russian company Far East Shipping Company PLC (FESCO) placed an order for the world's first large double-acting icebreaker. The ship, designed by Aker Arctic, is a result of a long series of research and development projects dating back to 1989. The keel of the ship was laid on 22 June 2004 in Aker Finnyards Helsinki shipyard and it
224-492: The ship is at port, and a Caterpillar 3412 emergency diesel generator. The vessel is propelled by two 6.5 MW ABB Azipod VI1600 electric azimuth thrusters . The ice-strengthened pods, designed to meet the requirements of DNV ice class ICE-10, can be used to "eat up" ice rubble while the propeller wash reduces the friction between the hull and the ice. They also give the vessel excellent maneuverability at low speeds and in ice, and dynamic positioning capabilities. In addition
240-689: Was acquired by SCF Sakhalin Vessels Limited, a subsidiary of the Russian shipping company Sovcomflot, in 2010 and renamed SCF Sakhalin , but continues in the original charter under the management of FESCO. In 2010 the company ordered two sister ships of slightly upgraded design, priced around $ 100 million each, from the same shipyard, now partially owned by the Russian United Shipbuilding Corporation and known as Arctech Helsinki Shipyard . The new vessels were delivered in 2012–2013 and are chartered for Exxon Neftegas Ltd. to be used in
256-597: Was launched on 18 February 2005. FESCO Sakhalin , christened on 31 May, was completed on 15 June and delivered to the owner in the following day. Designed specifically for year-round support and standby ice management of the Orlan platform , FESCO Sakhalin was chartered for Exxon Neftegas Ltd. for the operations in the Sakhalin-I project in the Sea of Okhotsk where there is a risk of becoming surrounded by grounded ice rubble.
