SMM STARTUPS Wavefoil

SMM STARTUPS Wavefoil has developed, sells and delivers retractable bowfoils. By increasing the energy efficiency by 5-15 %, a Wavefoil will contribute to lower emissions and energy costs for conventional vessels, and lower energy costs and extended range for non- or low emission vessels. A 10-25 % reduction in the vertical movement leads to increased safety and comfort. Experience shows that crew and passengers are less seasick sailing with bow foils, and the safety increases both due to less movement and the fact that the people onboard are less seasick. The effect of bow foils was discovered during the 19th century – that foils installed deep down in the bow will turn the vertical movements into propulsion and thus increase the energy efficiency. In waves higher than approximately 0.5 m, bow foils produce a force opposing the vessel motion which pulls the vessel forward. The current product portfolio consists of foil modules in four different sizes, covering vessels from 20-200 m. The modules come with a bridge control system and a monitoring solution. Wavefoil’s simulation software predicts the fuel consumption with and without the bow foils deployed. The Automatic Drain Cleaning System solves the hidden problem of clogged cylinder bores and drainpipes on 2-stroke marine engines. On most large vessels clogged drainpipes are just accepted as a part of everyday life which Smafrt marine aims to change with its system. »It is hardly visible, but the effect is significant savings on fuel/lube and the clean pipes improve combustion and working environment,« says Thorbjørn Thade Petersen, CEO of Smart-Marine. The Danish company has developed and produces the Automatic Drain Cleaning System. It has been thoroughly tested on MAN-ES 2-stroke engines, and the result of having augers continuously rotating and cleaning the pipes is striking. »Almost immediately, we saw a reduced fuel consumption due to the engine operating at correct high Pmax and higher mechanical efficiency. The augers make it much faster to do samples for Scrape Down Analysis (SDA) and with more precise and instant iron readings, the system simply prevents unnecessary operational expenses,« Thade Petersen explains. The fast and better SDA samples also reduce the use and optimize the dosage of cylinder lube oil. Saving both fuel and cylinder lube oil, the Automatic Drain Cleaning System reduces the CO 2 impact of the vessel. 48 HANSA – International Maritime Journal 09 | 2022

SMM STARTUPS Bid2board is an online marketplace leveraging the power of data and bridging the gap between marine service suppliers and ship owners / managers. Ship managers enjoy time efficient, simple and organized technical service arrangement, while service suppliers gain increased visibility and improved workflows from enquiry receipt until the execution of service. The company wants to make easy, time – saving, controlled and transparent service arrangements while improve service arrangement experience through an automated and simple process. The aim is that service suppliers get to know their competitiveness as service suppliers. Bid2board wants to increase service suppliers’ visibility and ship managers’ service options while, at the same time, reduce costs for ship managers and assist service suppliers to gain orders through a bidding process. The platform ist matching the service needs of ship managers with quality suppliers verified by the bid2board team. Cspect uses remote inspection techniques to inspect assets eliminating the use of divers, staging, cranes, ladders, rope access or cherry pickers. To perform these inspections Cspect uses Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV) and its ALTUM telescopic pole systems. The ALTUM has been developed to easily perform inspections and actions at height or depth. The system is an in-house development by Cspect and patent pending. It consists of different modules which can be attached on top of an ultra-light telescopic pole of 24 m. The system has an easy set-up and can be deployed for twelve hours without battery stress. It can be carried as standard luggage on a plane. The ALTUM with the VISUAL module performs close-up inspections and the ALTUM with the UTM module performs ultrasonic thickness measurements. Cspect also offers in-water surveys on ships and offshore structures with mini ROVs. Besides the normal visual inspections, they can perform thickness measurements of steel structures, dimension checks, cathodic protection measurements/differential voltage measurements on structures, local cleaning by cavitation, marine growth thickness measurements and sonar inspections.
