GOTHENBURG's SKF, a leading ball bearing and seal manufacturing company, has won a EUR2.25 million (US$2.6 million) order for two pairs of retractable fin stabilisers, including novel dynamic stabiliser covers, for a 182.9-metre research expedition vessel currently being fitted out at a Norwegian shipyard.
The ship will carry a team of researchers and will be equipped for research and investigation into the entire marine ecosystem.
SKF is pleased to announce that it has been appointed to manufacture and deliver two pairs of retractable fin stabilisers for the control of the vessel's rolling motions, along with its innovative new SKF Dynamic Stabiliser Cover system which has been designed to reduce drag at the fin box openings and reduce fuel consumption for the vessel by more than one per cent.
SKF's Type Z stabiliser is designed so that the fin can be fully retracted and housed entirely within a vessel without any hull protrusion. These stabiliser systems are simple to operate, the associated control system being fully adaptive to the ship's speed, sea state and vessel roll motion.
