000. - 099. DESIGN AND GENERAL
001. Intent
It is the intent of this Outline Specification and the associated plans to describe the
construction of the vessel in question to such extent that will enable the Builders to
build, furnish and deliver the vessel as intended.
Design, material, construction and equipment are to be such as to provide for de-
pendable, safe and economic operation of the vessel and expedient handling at
minimum construction costs.
Where ever in the Specification the term “or”, “if necessary”, when considered” and
other similar expressions may be used, the final choice in all important matters are to
be made by mutual agreement between Builder and Owner.
Whenever the term “or equal” is used after a brand or a type or a type of machinery
equipment or component, the term “or equal” to be understood to mean that any sub-
stitute shall be of equivalent standard and quality.

Scantling draught 12.60 m
The below deadweight all told is to be measured in metric tons in sea water with a
specific gravity of 1.025 t/m3.
The deadweight on scantling and light cargo draught to be finally confirmed after ap-
propriate calculations.
005. Capacities
Tank capacities:
Heavy fuel oil approx. 2,000 m³
DO approx. 200 m³
Lub. oils etc approx. 50 m³
Fresh water approx. 250 m³
Ballast water (incl. peaks and excl. hold no. 3) approx. 17,000 m³
The stated capacities are preliminary, to be verified during basic design of the vessel.
6
At an early design stages a preliminary capacity plan to be delivered to the Owner.
The trial speed to include no sea margin and the measured trial speed to be corrected

kJ/kg, scantling draught and 15% sea margin.
Based on 82 % of MCR, 100% capacity of HFO tanks, scantling draught and 14.0
knots, and 2 days spare.
Equal to approx. 55 days steaming (on heavy fuel oil) each 336 nautical miles.
