For those who do not work in this field of activity, everything looks beautiful from the outside. Accommodation forward, difficult and challenging living and working conditions for crew, especially for engine department crew. UMS system for engine department. Accommodation forward engine room, ECR aft ??!!! Duty engineer and duty oiler will run from accommodation - forward to ECR - enginee room - aft to deal with the alarms during UMS???!!! How it will the UMS service be done? How many engineers and engine ratings are in the crew on board. Methanol is liquid at atmospheric temperatures and pressures and hence bunkering is almost similar to conventional fuel oils, although the low-flashpoint and toxic properties require additional equipment and operational procedures. One of the major disadvantage of methanol is its lower energy content per volume. Methanol requires fuel tanks approximately 2.5 times the size of HFO tanks for the same energy content, or 1.3 times larger than equivalent LNG tanks. This has consequences for the spatial arrangements on board and the trading range of methanol-powered vessels. As a result, its applicability is mainly for smaller ships, feeder container vessels, at least initially. Methanol is a low-flashpoint flammable liquid and should take additional precautions to prevent ignition due to electrical arcing. Methanol bunkering is a classic chemical tank cargo operation procedure, considering that methanol is a Dangerous Chemicals, it involves a much more complicated procedure than the conventional fuel, Inerting, Purging, etc. All these procedures involve adjacent installations, plus their operation and maintenance, installations that were usually found only on chemical tankers. In fact the container vessel powered by methanol becomes also small chemical tank ship. On board the chemical tankers, directly in charge of cargo operation ( safe loading, discharging and stowage of cargo) is an experienced Chief Mate. That's all he does on board, not maneuvers, not watch duty. On these container ships powered by methanol, the methanol bunkering operation is done by the engine department. Anyway, classic fuel remains to be bunkered, because methanol cannot be used alone as a fuel for two-stroke naval engines. Most current 2 strokes naval engines methanol requires a pilot fuel for efficient burning, so conventional fuel must be carried on board as well, doubling as fall-back fuel too.
