CRUISE SHIP

Explanation
A cruise ship is a passenger ship used for pleasure voyages, where the voyage itself and the ship's
amenities are part of the experience, as well as the different destinations along the
way.Transportation is not the prime purpose, as cruise ships operate mostly on routes that return
passengers to their originating port, so the ports of call are usually in a specified region of a
continent.
Special Features
Cruise ships are organized complete with a hospitality staff in addition to the usual ship's crew. The
ship is equipped with various facilities such as casino, spa, fitness center, shops, library, theatre,
cinema, buffer restaurant, lounges, gym and other facilities.
Function
Carry passengers on voyages undertaken for pleasure, visiting several places and with leisure
activities on board, often returning them to the port of embarkation. Cruise ship is much like floating
hotels.

RESEARCH SHIP
Explanation
A research vessel is a ship designed and equipped to carry out research at sea. Research vessels carry
out a number of roles. Some of these roles can be combined into a single vessel, others require a
dedicated vessel. Due to the demanding nature of the work, research vessels are often constructed
around an icebreaker hull, allowing them to operate in polar waters.
Special Features
Research vessel is equiped with highly specialized equipment. This ship also can often endure tough
sea conditions.
Function
Research ship is used to doing many task involving doing research such as in hydographic, fisheries,
oceanographic, naval, polar and oil exploration.

















Example
NOAAS Ronald H. Brown (R104)
NOAAS Ronald H. is a blue-water research vessel of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration. She was launched on May 30, 1996 at Halter Marine's Moss Point shipyard in
Pascagoula and then commissioned on July 19 in Charleston. She was NOAA's first newly built
oceanographic research vessel in 17 years.
In addition to her state-of-the-art oceanographic sampling capabilities, the Ronald H. Brown has
instrumentation to study the atmosphere, including a Doppler weather radar for a better
understanding of storm dynamics at sea. This combined atmospheric and oceanographic sampling
capability makes the ship unique in the world's research fleet. Scientists aboard the vessel study
critical environmental issues across the world's oceans. She has participated in many national and
international projects since 1997.

FPSO VESSEL
Explanation
FPSO is a floating production, storage and offloading unit is a floating vessel used by the offshore
industry. FPSOs are preferred in frontier offshore regions as they are easy to install, and do not
require a local pipeline infrastructure to export oil. FPSOs can be a conversion of an oil tanker or can
be a vessel built specially for the application.
Special Features
Floating production, storage and offloading vessels are particularly effective in remote or deepwater
locations where seabed pipelines are not cost effective. FPSOs eliminate the need to lay expensive
long-distance pipelines from the oil well to an onshore terminal. They can also be used economically
in smaller oil fields which can be exhausted in a few years and do not justify the expense of installing
a pipeline.
Function
This vessel used for the processing of hydrocarbons and for storage of oil. A FPSO vessel is designed
to receive hydrocarbons produced from nearby platforms or subsea template, process them, and
store oil until it can be offloaded onto a tanker or transported through a pipeline.





Example
FPSO Seillean
The vessel was designated as a single well oil production ship (SWOPS) when constructed for BP by
Harland and Wolff in 1989. The vessel was designed for the Cyrus oilfield on Block 16/28 in the UK
sector of the North Sea. Later she served on the Donan field. Seillean was sold by BP in 1993 to
Reading & Bates.

As Brazilian oil company Petrobras took the decision to develop the Roncador field,
a four-year charter for Seillean was signed. In 1997-1998, Seillean was upgraded and arrived in Brazil
in December 1998.

TUGBOAT
Explanation
A tugboat is a boat that maneuvers vessels by pushing or towing them. Tugs move vessels that either
should not move themselves, such as ships in a crowded harbor or a narrow canal, or those that
cannot move themselves alone, such as barges, disabled ships, or oil platforms. Tugboats are
powerful for their size and strongly built; some are ocean-going. Some tugboats serve as icebreakers
or salvage boats. Early tugboats had steam engines; today diesel engines are used. They are few type
of tugboat that is seagoing tugboat, harbour tugs and river tugs.
Special Features
The tug is very difficult to capsize since the towing point rotates freely. The tugboat is highly
maneuverable, being able to change the direction of its thrust almost instantaneously. The internal
gear changes the angle of attack of the blades in sync with the rotation of the plate, so that each
blade can provide thrust in any direction.
Function
This ship is function to tow or push barges and large ships. It also function to tow vessel through
crowded harbor or a narrow canal.













Example



FERRY
Explanation
A ferry is a form of transportation, usually a boat, but sometimes a ship, used to carry primarily
passengers, and sometimes vehicles and cargo as well, across a body of water. Most ferries operate
on regular, frequent or return services. A passenger ferry with many stops, such as in Venice, is
sometimes called a water bus or water taxi.
Ferries form a part of the public transport systems of many waterside cities and islands, allowing
direct transit between points at a capital cost much lower than bridges or tunnels. However, ship
connections of much larger distances such as over long distances in water bodies like the
Mediterranean Sea may also be called ferry services, especially if they carry vehicles.
Special Features
Ferry slip is a specialized facilities designed to position the boat for loading and unloading. Ferry
steering propellers rotating round vertical shafts can be put on any place of the ramp, regardless of
stream.
Function
Ferry usually used to carried passenger, vehicle or cargo across a body of water. Ferry also used as
the public transport systems to connect watersides city and island.














Example
MS Pride of Rotterdam
Pride of Rotterdam is 215.05 m (705 ft 7 in) long with a beam of 31.85 m (104 ft 6 in) and a draught
of 6.04 m (19 ft 10 in). She is powered by four Wrtsil 9L46C diesel engines which have a total
power output of 37,800 kilowatts (50,700 hp). These can propel her at 22 knots (41 km/h).
Pride of Rotterdam can carry 1,360 passengers. She has 3,300 metres (3,600 yd) of lane capacity, and
can carry 250 cars and 400 trailers. Cars are driven in through an entrance in the ships side and
stored separately from trailers which are loaded from the rear.
