MSC Danit
The new
and most
discussed
ship last
days was
the new building of Daewoo
Shipbuilding & Marine
Engineering - MSC Danit. The
ship is the largest container ship
built ever. The vessel MSC Danit
has capacity for 14,000 TEUs with
deadweight of 165,517 metric
tons. The ships from the class of
MSC Danit are really the largest
and most interesting container
ships of the world, built ever.
The ship has overall length of
365.50 meters and moulded
beam of 51.20 meters. The ship
is leading in the competition of
MSC fleet with Maersk fleet, and
got the first place, at least for
now. The ship MSC Danit has
draft of 16.00 meters at
maximum cargo weight, which is
giving a gross tonnage of the
ship of 153,092 gross tons. The
ship was finished at the
beginning of March and on 26th
of March, 2009 was christened
by the vice-president of Daewoo
ship-yard, president of MSC
Israel - Edni Simkin and his
daughter Danit Simkin, who gave
the name of the vessel. The ship
is really innovation in ship-
building with improved stability
and better engine, for increasing
power and speed of the ship.
The main engine of the ship MSC
Danit is MAN B&W 12K98MC-C
with output power of 72,240 kW.
the speed is enough for the ship
to reach maximum speed of 25.0
knots, while th cruising one is
24.1 knots.
The ship MSC Danit is property
of Mediterranean Shipping
Company, registered under the
flag of Panama with IMO
number 9404649. The ship is
really innovated with
superstructure in the midships
and engine
room in the
aft. The
ship is
really
beautiful and theory is showing
that this positioning of the
superstructure and funnel is
giving high stability and optimal
trim with maximum loading of
the ship. This distribution of the
features of the ship are giving
better stbility and cargo handling
on the deck even in heavy sea.
The ship MSC Danit has
improved shape for higher speed
in following the timetable of the
chateurs. Really the vessel is
from the new generation with
some classes larger and better
than all other container ships
built ever.
