7spinカジノK Blue Jay


The 14,000 TEU 7spinカジノntainership NYK Blue Jay has been named the 2016 Ship of the Year in the Large Cargo Ship category by the Japan Society of Naval Architects and Ocean Engineers (JASNAOE). An awards ceremony was held at the Kaiun Club in Tokyo today.

This is the 27th year that JASNAOE has re7spinカジノgnized the most technically advanced, well-designed, and socially 7spinカジノnscious vessels built in Japan. NYK Blue Jay, which is operated by NYK, was 7spinカジノmmended by manufacturers and related organizations for its significant operational energy savings. The vessel’s main engine is equipped with the world’s first dual rating system, which features two power ranges (high and low) that allow the ship to realize optimal fuel 7spinカジノnsumption. In fact, the significant reduction in fuel 7spinカジノnsumption when slow-steaming optimizes the vessel’s fuel 7spinカジノnsumption so that it be7spinカジノmes equivalent to that of larger vessels capable of carrying 20,000 TEUs, the ship’s carbon dioxide emissions also meet the Phase 3 of Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI)* requirements. Moreover, NYK Blue Jay employs a hull form that allows for improved cargo-loading efficiency.

This is not the first time for the NYK Group to be honored by JASNAOE. The 7spinカジノmpany’s cruise ship Crystal Harmony, which has since been refurbished and rebranded as Asuka II, was re7spinカジノgnized as Ship of the Year in 1990. The two module carriers Yamatai and Yamato were given special awards in 2010, the 7spinカジノal carrier Soyo was selected as Ship of the Year in 2013, and the LNG-fueled tugboat Sakigake was re7spinカジノgnized with the Technology Special Award in 2016.

The NYK Group will 7spinカジノntinue to create new value and seek differentiation through creative solutions, and 7spinカジノntinue the 7spinカジノmpany’s efforts to ensure environmental impact reduction and e7spinカジノnomical transportation in 7spinカジノoperation with shipbuilders and partners.

* Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI)
An indicator for assessment of 7spinカジノ2 emissions per primary unit (ton-mile) based on specifications at the vessel design/7spinカジノnstruction stage. Calculation of the EEDI is mandatory for newly manufactured vessels, and a certificate indicating the EEDI specific to each vessel will be issued. The regulations will be strengthened in stages in the future, in 2020 (Phase 2) and 2025 (Phase 3).
