Delta Marine is pleased to announce a new contract for the design of a 4700 DWT oil product/chemical tanker. The vessel is to be designed for sea and river navigation between Le Havre and Antwerp and therefore has very difficult design constraints. (shallow draught, air draught, Tancarville canal restrictions, 29 bridges to pass). Propulsion will be by 2 (two) units of electric motors coupled to a rudder propeller. The main engine will run on diesel (or biofuels), but will also be equipped with a battery pack; solar panels will be installed on the bridge to supply electricity to all the equipment needed for life on board.
