Via rail in India and via shuttle vessels in the North Sea, Ballard fuel cells are powering new breakthroughs in emission-free transport. India’s first hydrogen fuel cell passenger train has entered regular service, marking a […]
Rolls-Royce has supplied offshore oil and gas shipping company Starnav Serviços Marítimos of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil with 40 mtu 16V 4000 M33S engines to power ten new vessels for Brazilian energy company Petrobras. The engines, delivered in two phases, will […]
With a growing roster of full-vessel systems engineering projects along with discrete product launches, ABB is electrifying diverse maritime fleets around the world. Recent notable undertakings include: […]
New Zealand marine technology innovator Vessev is expanding into the Australian market with the Enautic Group set to introduce Vessev’s electric hydrofoiling passenger vessels to Western Australia. They are powered by an underwater propulsion system using neodymium permanent magnet motors. Several Vessev VS–9 vessels have been reserved […]
Featuring magnetically coupled propeller drives and permanent-magnet brushless DC motors, Tecnadyne engineers have designed a new line of subsea thrusters that bring higher levels of propulsion efficiency to autonomous underwater vehicles. Dedicated to highly reliable systems for the subsea […]
Showcasing a sophisticated foray into electric propulsion and system electrification, Oceaneering unveiled its latest development in remotely operated vehicles for marine work projects at the Subsea Tieback Forum held in March at New Orleans. Named Momentum, the electric ROV was developed using a reliabilitydriven, datainformed design approach […]
Hydrogen offers promising potential application scenarios for ship propulsion. An electric motor installed in the drivetrain, which is supplied with energy from a fuel cell system, requires only a continuous supply of oxygen and hydrogen. Stored in […]
Azimuth thrusters, typically employing powerful neodymium permanent-magnet motors, have become a major tool for electrifying maritime propulsion. Kongsberg Maritime, a pioneering leader in the technology, has recently extended the range of its underwater mountable, permanent magnet azimuth […]
As the aviation industry works toward the ambitious goal of net-zero CO2 emissions by 2050, the shift to sustainable aviation fuel such as hydrogen is gaining momentum. However, truly effective reductions in the environmental impacts of aviation likely require innovation that goes beyond fuel to embrace the entire aircraft system. […]
Since the 1960s, academic, commercial and military researchers have attempted to realize a novel form of maritime propulsion involving no moving parts – no propeller, no drive shaft, no seals – just magnets and an electric current that silently propel a boat or submarine through water. It has been an elusive goal but tests are being conducted at Navy facilities this summer with an aim toward developing a practical, workable system. […]
