250 Tons Of Electric Power

1 week ago | marinelink.com | Wendy Laursen

The electric ferry Ampere went into service in 2015. It was the world’s first electric ferry, and it has now sailed the equivalent of over 17 times around the equator. The 80-meter vessel boasts about 11 tons of battery system. This month, the world’s largest electric ferry built to date was launched at Incat in Tasmania, Australia. This 130-meter vessel boats 250 tons of battery system. The electrical system integration is by Wärtsilä and battery system by Corvus Energy.
Some Things Have Remained The Same

President of New Wave Media, Greg Trauthwein, spoke to Knut Ørbeck Nilssen, CEO Maritime, DNV, for the latest episode of Maritime Reporter TV. Asked about what has remained the same over his 30+ year maritime career, Nilssen said: “If I look to the maritime industry, it has really maintained a fairly stable regulatory environment over all these 30 plus years. We still have the IMO, as a global regulator, which is quite rare for any industry.

Titomic is ‘leading the future’ with Cold Spray Solutions, additive manufacturing of new products and components for newbuild and repair projects. Chris Myers, SVP Global Growth; and James Caldwell, Regional Sales Manager APAC, discuss the advantages that Titomic’s additive manufacturing can deliver in the ability to make critical parts production – parts up to 9m long – faster and cheaper for offshore energy and maritime companies.
Harvest Now Decrypt Later

2 weeks ago | marinelink.com | Wendy Laursen

The threat that AI and quantum computing pose to cyber security is already here, even before these technologies are mature enough to crack today’s encryption methods. Bad actors are taking a “harvest now decrypt later” approach to cyberattacks. Classical encryption methods like Rivest–Shamir–Adleman (RSA) and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) rely on the difficulty of factoring large numbers or solving discrete logarithm problems.

Send In The Robots For High-Frequency Biofouling

2 weeks ago | marinelink.com | Wendy Laursen

The currents in Singapore can be so strong that divers cleaning fouling from a ship’s hull can feel like they are swimming in a river. There’s times when it’s just not safe for them to be there. The currents can be a problem for robotic cleaners as well, but for ship operators, the bigger problem is having to wait long after cargo operations have concluded while the hull is cleaned by either method.
Naturally Quiet

The Arctic’s bowhead whales can live for over 200 years. Imagine what they might hear in that time: screw propellers were only just being used to power ships 200 years ago, and diesel engines appeared some hundred years after that. The underwater radiated noise of shipping has grown globally, but the Arctic is a special place. It has been partially shielded from shipping noise.
Quantum Sensing Beats GPS-Denied Navigational

1 month ago | marinelink.com | Wendy Laursen

The same error-prone sensitivity that has slowed down the development of quantum computers is being turned into an advantage for GPS-denied navigation. A new quantum sensing technology from Australia-based Q-CTRL has most recently caught the interest of Lockheed Martin and the US Defense Innovation Unit, but the company is already working with the Australian Department of Defence, the UK Royal Navy, the US Department of Defense and Airbus.
Geographical Gaps Limit Ballast Water Research

1 month ago | marinelink.com | Wendy Laursen

The US Coast Guard’s Office of Commercial Vessel Compliance recently released its U.S. Port State Control Annual Report for 2024 highlighting a 200% increase in untreated ballast water discharges compared to 2023. With this result, there’s still a risk of invasive species arriving in ballast water. And a review of research into the organisms found in ballast water published in March highlights just how limited current knowledge is.
