納奈莫女王將被替換為新船LNG動(dòng)力。
卑詩(shī)渡輪專員已批準(zhǔn)興建三個(gè)新的中間級(jí)船舶以取代本那比的48歲的女王和49歲的女王納奈莫BC渡輪的應(yīng)用。這些船只都即將結(jié)束其使用壽命,并計(jì)劃在2016年退休。卑詩(shī)渡輪擬收購(gòu)液化天然氣為燃料的船舶。
卑詩(shī)渡輪擬建造兩艘船只能夠運(yùn)載145輛汽車和600名乘客和機(jī)組人員,以取代女王的伯納比,帆Comox和鮑威爾河之間,并取代納奈莫,哪些服務(wù)Tsawwassen的女王 - 南海灣群島的航班。第三個(gè)容器,能夠運(yùn)載125輛和600名乘客和機(jī)組人員也將被建成以增強(qiáng)服務(wù)Tsawwassen的峰值和肩膀季節(jié) - 南海灣群島的航班,加上其他兩個(gè)新船提供改裝救濟(jì)。
“當(dāng)我們開始我們的新造船計(jì)劃的下一個(gè)階段,通過整體類和標(biāo)準(zhǔn)化戰(zhàn)略等一系列建設(shè)程序的一個(gè)主要目標(biāo)是實(shí)現(xiàn)資本和運(yùn)營(yíng)成本節(jié)約和效率”,卑詩(shī)渡輪公司總裁兼首席執(zhí)行官邁克·科里根說。
卑詩(shī)渡輪打算繼續(xù)將選擇通過一個(gè)正式的采購(gòu)過程中與一間造船廠設(shè)計(jì)建造合約。本公司將發(fā)出資格預(yù)審要求在本月晚些時(shí)候。加拿大和國(guó)際船廠在這個(gè)過程中被邀請(qǐng)參加。卑詩(shī)渡輪預(yù)計(jì)該項(xiàng)目在2014年1月授予合同。兩個(gè)145汽車渡輪服務(wù)預(yù)計(jì)將在2016年和125輛渡輪有望
在2017年進(jìn)入服役。
尚未敲定其中的主要設(shè)計(jì)元素是那些尊重液化天然氣(LNG)。雖然BC渡輪擬收購(gòu)液化天然氣為燃料的船舶,進(jìn)一步的技術(shù)分析和財(cái)務(wù)分析作出最后決定之前,將需要。這些分析很大程度上取決于招標(biāo)書的回應(yīng)。雖然燃用液化天然氣的船只預(yù)計(jì)將有較高的初始投資成本比燃用柴油,他們預(yù)計(jì)將有較低的整個(gè)生命周期的成本,這將有正面的影響,票價(jià)。
The BC Ferries Commissioner has approved BC Ferries’ application to construct three new intermediate class vessels to replace the 48-year old Queen of Burnaby and the 49-year old Queen of Nanaimo. Both of these vessels are nearing the end of their service lives and are scheduled for retirement in 2016. BC Ferries intends to acquire LNG-fuelled vessels.
BC Ferries intends to build two vessels capable of carrying 145 vehicles and up to 600 passengers and crew to replace the Queen of Burnaby, which sails between Comox and Powell River and to replace the Queen of Nanaimo, which services the Tsawwassen – Southern Gulf Islands route. A third vessel capable of carrying 125 vehicles and 600 passengers and crew will also be built to augment peak and shoulder season service on the Tsawwassen – Southern Gulf Islands route, plus provide refit relief for the other two new ships.
“As we begin the next phase of our newbuild program, a key objective is to achieve capital and operating cost savings and efficiencies through an overall class and standardization strategy and a series build program,” said Mike Corrigan, BC Ferries’ President and CEO.
BC Ferries intends to pursue a design-build contract with a shipyard that will be selected through a formal procurement process. The Company will be issuing a Request for Pre-Qualification later this month. Canadian and international shipyards are invited to participate in this process. BC Ferries expects to award a contract for this project in January 2014. The two-145 vehicle ferries are expected to be in service in 2016 and the 125-vehicle ferry is expected to
enter service in 2017.
Among the key design elements yet to be finalized are those respecting liquefied natural gas (LNG). While BC Ferries intends to acquire LNG-fuelled vessels, further technical and financial analyses will be required before a final decision is made. These analyses very much depend on the responses to the Request for Proposals. While vessels fuelled with LNG are expected to have a higher initial capital costs than those fuelled with diesel, they are expected to have lower overall life cycle costs, which would have a positive impact on fares.
