Ship Operation Technology. Reference Book and Guidebook/Технология эксплуатации судов. Справочник и путеводитель

Издание на английском языке
On January 1, 2015, the world merchant fleet comprised 50,422 ships with >300 GT and a deadweight tonnage of 1661 million dwt. Bulk carriers formed the main part of this, followed by crude oil tankers.
To ensure that these ships can navigate the world’s oceans safely, a functioning ship operation technology is of particular importance.
In addition to a few brief explanations of shipbuilding and the basics of the various propulsion systems, this textbook “Ship Operation Technology” deals with auxiliary systems and auxiliary machinery, power units, life-saving equipment, ship safety, and much more - in other words, with what makes the hull into a ship in the first place. In this respect, this book complements other literature dealing with the actual design and construction of ships and with the propulsion technology of ships.
