Bureau Veritas anticipates a series of lines guides for the planning, construction and management of tugs
is developed in collaboration with a series of companies of the field
June 20, 2014
the society of classification Bureau Veritas (BV) has defined a series of lines guides for the planning, construction and management of tugs. Such addresses are developed by the French group in collaboration with a series of companies of the field, between which Robert Allan, Damen Shipyards, Smit Lamnalco/Smit Towage and Kotug International. "Participation assets of operators of the field - Jong has explained Gijsbert de, business development manager of Bureau Veritas for the section of the tugs and the ships support for the offshore industry - have been fundamental for the definition of these norms, that they are pragmatic and they are developed around the most recent technical developments with a opened mentality to the innovation".
"Bureau Veritas - it has emphasized de Jong - is world leader in classifies of the tugs, with beyond 1.650 tugs in class and 300 tugs of new construction in its pocketbook orders. This represents a quota 22% of the market of the tugs in class IACS. The total market of the tugs - it has found de Jong - is changing quickly since they increase the dimensions of the ships. Moreover there are a greater number of offshore terminalistiche activity, put up requisitioned for means of service and a greater pressure in order to reduce the emissions. One of the problems that the field of the tugs will have to face is the lack of clear lines guides and total norms of safety. The new lines guide of BV for the planning, construction and management of tugs will constitute a new reference for all the constructors and the operators of tugs and will contribute to return the entire surer and more efficient field".
