Article from the Maritime Executive
In the category “next generation ship award”
Container feeder ship designs developed by Danish naval architects KNUD E. HANSEN. Three ship types were proposed; a 2,000 TEU vessel optimized for shallow water ports where the needed small propeller diameter is replaced by a more efficient dual arrangement of fixed propeller and contra-rotating azipod, 3,800 TEU type with a larger single propeller type for deeper ports with a dual-fuel power plant and an innovative trimaran hull form 3,000 TEU ship which overcomes cargo handling problems associated with high sided narrow vessels and allows for faster speeds and a better cargo mix.
