However, ships equipped with this type of propulsion are more vulnerable to damage, especially in demanding conditions beyond the polar circle \u2013 failure of angular gears or other mechanical parts often makes it necessary to do a dry dock repair.<br \/>\nA more reliable alternative may be a traditional diesel-electric or mechanical drive with long shaft systems and power plants located inside the hull. On the other hand, the gearbox and engines take up valuable space and installing them on a azimuthal thruster ship is a challenge.<br \/>\nSolution?<br \/>\nCaterpillar Marine, Odense Maritime Technology and Scandinavian Marine Group have joined forces to develop a compact double-skeg design based on proven and robust components.<br \/>\nThe system is designed for diesel-electric drive ships which have to meet the most rigorous requirements. The system can be installed in new vessels as well as quickly and easily retrofitted to existing ships equipped with azimuthal thrusters. The possibilities are endless \u2013 talk to us about how you see your future.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h6><strong>UNIQUE REQUIREMENTS?<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>WE HAVE GOT THE BEST SOLUTION<\/strong><\/h6>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Based on Caterpillar Marine&#8217;s knowledge and experience, we have developed propulsion systems, including engines, services and support to help you meet even the toughest requirements. We go out to meet them, listening carefully to your needs.<br \/>\nIn cooperation with you and our partners, we will analyse your ship&#8217;s structure, routes and tasks \u2013 everything that affects hydrodynamics, engine requirements and productivity. Using all our knowledge and experience, we will not rest until you are fully satisfied with our optimized and reliable solution.<br \/>\nWe look forward to hearing about your needs and showing you how a double skeg drive can deliver long lasting performance and peace of mind \u2013 now and in the future.<br \/>\nIf your ship is currently powered by azimuthal thrusters, installing a double skeg drive is trivially easy and fast. Since the system is produced as a whole, the working time and stay at the shipyard is kept to an absolute minimum \u2013 maybe even up to one third of the standard upgrade time! After all, every hour counts.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Twin Fin concept combines the advantages of a compact azimuth thruster system with the high efficiency of a conventional propeller (CP).
