I think they must have just refitted it and gave it a nice new paint job. They still have cardboard on floors to keep them from getting messed up until everything is done.
love your videos wolfgang...my late father sailed the world as a second engineer then became a chief...british merchant navy...great videos i love them...
Big MAN 4stroke engines with liner lubrication, I had worked in a German passenger ship, which had same engines 4 no.s with 2 shaft generators as well. Great ship and great times. Thanks for sharing this video, great video indeed.
Initially there was no liner lubrication, it was installed later on due to high luboil consumption. Nowadays all new big engines have liner lubrication. Thanks for your comment.
Sorry, I forgot to show our boiler. The main use is for heating the heavy fuel oil in the bunker tanks, along all fuel pipes, at the filter and separators and at the main engines. Other uses are for chasing Somali pirates, see my video: th-cam.com/video/qdDfyBGSOb8/w-d-xo.html and all sort of heatings, e.g. cabins, water, etc. On tanker ships you can find huge boilers and steam driven cargo pumps. On one tanker we had a steam turbine to produce electricity. Steam turbines as main propulsion you cannot find anymore, they are not so efficient. I was on one tanker where the winches were driven by steam, but I think such things you cannot find anymore.
@@Wolfgang227 Nice explanation. So steam turbines are not used in Cargo ship anymore. But they are still used in Tankers and other LNG carriers. BTW is Heavy Fuel Oil is same is diesel oil? Also if there is any good tour/interior video of boilers, please do share!! Thanks for reply 👍.
@@Neo-po2xw Heavy fuel and diesel oil are very different. HFO needs to be heated to about 120 degree celsius before it can be injected into the engine. If cold it can become solid like Asphalt. Boiler videos I do not have, for a long time I did not work on tanker ships.
@@Neo-po2xw All big ship diesel engines are started the same way, compressed air between 15 to 30 bar is injected into the combustion chamber until the engine is turning enough to inject diesel oil. In my other video th-cam.com/video/V-co2sP_KyQ/w-d-xo.html (at 4:10) you can see the air compressors and the air reservoirs.
Hi, now I remember You.

No, the variable pitch propellor is controlled from the bridge. Nevertheless, during manoeuvring one engineer is standby at the engine controls to observe the manoeuvres and to engage if anything goes wrong. Also the load on the twin engines needs to be balanced manually.
Hello Sir house your Voyage I enjoy,Watching your Video,Especially at the Engine Room, Because, I remember all Machineries,When I was on board, but Unfortunately I cannot Embark again.
That should not be difficult, Just enter in your browser search engine: “Crew Recruitment”, “Ship crew recruitment” “Ship crew agent” or something similar and you should find enough information. A good place would also be a marine school or maritime collage somewhere near your place. Anyhow you will need some maritime education, to enter a ship, even as a helper you would need the minimum certificates as: First Aid, Fire fighting, Life saving, etc. Go ahead, nothing can stop you, only you yourself.
Are you crazy? First you have to make courses, certifications, after that, look for a company, and after that, make your job that include a lot of cleaning, you have to stand the bullying of some stupid "engineers", crazy people..with lack of formation.
Very clean, very efficient and a pleasing mechanical song from the engines; however, I still have a hankering for the sight and sound of those old Doxford engines because I find it oddly reassuring to see components bobbing up and down in full view! But engineers must have found them bastards to work on.

It is a cement carrier, I just realised I should have included also the forward of the vessel, sorry about that. I have some more videos in my channel with this ship: Somali pirate drill, rescue seaman, help capsized boat, visit Maldives, bunkering at Jeddah and Indian fishing village.
@@rocksnot952 Our engines have already 150,000 running hours and all maintenance is done by the ships crew. Size does not really matter. Jet engines you will not find in any merchant vessel due to high price and high consumption, only the Navy can effort such an engine.
I don't want to be disrespectful, but do all new ships look that old? I can't shake the thought, that this is what a new ship "made in china" looks like (as of 2021).
Hello sir good day to you i am also involved in ship business i am in business of ship main engine and generator spare spart if you need please contact me thank you
Im retired from the Coast Guard, and I swear that is by far one of the cleanest engine room Ive seen so far 😆. Well done keeping it clean.
Thanks for your comment, this ship is already more than 20 years old.

1:33 Does the bridge engine orders come down here and the engineer has to set the engine levers manually?
No, the variable pitch propellor is controlled from the bridge. Nevertheless, during manoeuvring one engineer is standby at the engine controls to observe the manoeuvres and to engage if anything goes wrong. Also the load on the twin engines needs to be balanced manually.

Quite a fast running engine. Guess the ship is a medium size. Would have expected a reall slow running one (120 something rpm).
Yes, medium size, engine on 600 rpm. I have another video with a slow running engine: th-cam.com/video/V-co2sP_KyQ/w-d-xo.html

This is only a medium sized engine, there are ship engines with a 100,000 horse power.
