Blue Water Marine Services’ Cargo Heating Management System continues to make waves in the heated cargo trade vessels, by consistently optimizing fuel oil consumption and minimizing harmful emissions from boilers during cargo heating operations.
The system recently recorded unprecedented success onboard one of the Aframax tanker that was making a voyage from US Gulf to South East Asia . The vessel was loaded with 77000 MT of Fuel oil at 41.0 deg Celsius and was scheduled to discharge the cargo at same temperature. Along with the optimized planning and monitoring, it was the cooperation of the vessel crew that reduced average fuel oil consumption for cargo heating to lower than 1 MT/day as compared with the normal benchmark consumption of 6.3 MT/day.
Over the 53 laden days voyage the vessel consumed only 55 MT of fuel oil in the cargo heating operations and registered a net savings of nearly 283 MT against the estimated figure of chartering. This fuel oil savings directly calculate to a financial savings of 82,000 USD over the voyage. There were other substantial operational cost savings as the vessel could sail without making the scheduled stop for bunkers at Richard’s Bay. The added advantages were in terms of lower volume of the emissions from boiler due to reduced heating hours and lower man-hours involved in cargo heating operations during the voyage.

I’m an old geezer on the community network who chips in here and there. Over a period of time I get a feeling that some of our less experienced members are not too sure about what to initiate as useful topics for discussion / debate. To help them out I have put together a set of five questions which they may ask themselves before initiating discussions. May I request more experienced members to chip in with more questions / suggestions / guidelines to make the whole process more purposeful. The set follows:- 1. does the topic add value / knowledge to the community? 2. is the topic worthy of attention / discussion? 3. will the topic lead to / inspire action? 4. will other members like to refer / share it with others? 5. will someone from our community benefit from the topic?

Why is using email marketing services sometimes a better option than direct mail? There are many options available to the business or charitable organization that is in need of a way to better communicate with their target audience. Two of the most popular are email marketing and direct mail. While both have their pros and cons, email is often a better option than its traditional counterpart. This article will explain why by highlighting some of the advantages it has over direct mail. Cost Effectiveness One of the best qualities email marketing has going for it is its low cost. The price you would pay to reach hundreds or even thousands of contacts is downright cheap in comparison to trying to connect with the same number of people with direct mail. More businesses are finding out that such traditional methods are cost prohibitive in today’s economy. With direct mail, you have to factor in the cost for creating your actual marketing materials, printing it all out, and mailing it to...

In today's news, I came across this article that scientists at Sandia National Labs who were seeking a means to create cheap and abundant hydrogen to power a hydrogen economy, realized they could use the same technology to "reverse-combust" CO2 back into fuel. They still have to improve the efficiency of the system, but they recently demonstrated a working prototype of their "Sunshine to Petrol" converting waste CO2 to carbon monoxide, and then syngas, consuming nothing but solar energy. The device, boasting the simple title Counter-Rotating-Ring Receiver Reactor Recuperator (CR5) sets off a thermo-chemical reaction by exposing an iron-rich composite to concentrated solar heat. The composite sheds an oxygen molecule when heated and gets one back as it cools, and therein lies the fuel. The cylindrical metal CR5 is divided into hot and cold chambers. Solar energy heats the hot chamber to a scorching 2,700 degrees, which forces the iron oxide composite to lose oxygen atoms. The...

How to spot a fake resume Here are somethings you need to look for to ensure that you are not being hoodwinked into recruiting someone with fake credentials. The information that is most often faked are the following: 1. Skills 2. Work details/Projects 3. Salary details 4. Employment records 5. Educaton records There are reasonably easy ways to get to the truth, though they are not completely foolproof. Skills The fake resume exponent knows that companies search for candidates on job sites using keywords. They also know that to end up in the top 2 - 3 pages, they need to match as many keywords as possible. So in their resume, they add all skills that are commonly searched for by companies, whether they possess the skill or not. The way to defeat this is to ask all candidates to send in their updated profiles with the following details for each of their skills Have you just heard about it, or have you undergone training, or do you have hands-on experience? If you have undergone...
