What you see below is the work of photographer Alastair Philip Wiper done at Opko – a port located in South Korea – and covers the construction of world’s largest container ship known as Maersk Triple E. Maersk placed an order with Daewoo Shipping worth $3.8 billion back in 2011 for 20 such vessels to be built.
三重E类的长度为400米,宽度为59米。与称为E类的前身相比,这使得它仅长3米,更宽约4米。但是,当与船体的U形设计相结合时,这么小的变化而不是V形,当涉及到船只的运输能力时,变成了相当明显的变化。它可以携带2500个TEU容器。
该草案的尺寸为14米,因此使船穿过巴拿马运河的经过不可能,但是,它可以将苏伊士运河的水租到欧洲和亚洲之间。马士克已经有计划在这一特定路线上使用这么多的船只,同时预测中国出口的增加。该公司最大的市场是亚洲 - 欧洲贸易,约有100艘专门为这条路线指定。
摄影师刮水器说:“您不觉得自己在船上,更像是大教堂。想象一下这个空间充满了消费品,并考虑一下只有一艘船上有多少艘船。然后想想每天在世界各地航行多少。这就像试图考虑无限。”
The ship comes with dual 43,000hp (32MW) two-stroke, ultra-long-stroke diesel engines and by making use of ‘slow steaming’ approach the fuel consumption can be reduced by 37% while managing a 50% reduction in the carbon dioxide being emitted by each ship. Slow steaming is the name given to the strategy of having ships travel at slower speed than the top speed. The top speed for this particular ship is 23 knots.
该模型是通过称为“双脚”的推进系统设计的,它采用了2个引擎和双螺旋桨。螺旋桨的直径为9.8米,它们具有4叶片。它们的重量为70吨,是在德国的Metallguss GmbH中创建的。Triple E名称源自该公司的设计原则,“规模经济,节能和环境改善”。
9号船长拉尔斯·彼得·詹森(Lars Peter Jensen)Th将要建造的三重E级与马士克合作了42年,并且还担任了最后四个“世界上最大的船只”的队长。观看下面的视频并告诉我们您的想法!
