MERIAURA LTDLOADING AND DISCHARGING OPERATIONS

Cargo items can be driven onboard by truck and trailer, spmt or other wheel based equipment. Roll-on/off operation can be performed over the stern or over the side, provided that the quay height and water depth is sufficient. Vessels are equipped with ramp elements or link spans for the roll-on loadout over the side or stern. The ramp elements can be placed at any location on ships side. Vessel can be moored stern or side facing the quay, subject to port permits.

>SKIDDING LOADOUT

Skidding operation can be performed over the stern or over the side, provided that the quay height and water depth is sufficient.

Sometimes it is not possible to bring cargo to the quay side. In this case it was possible to lift the vessel and skid mv MERI to the assembly hall and perform loadout in the hall with overhead cranes.

>SUPPORTING

Vessels are equipped with supporting blocks with 100 tons capacity each. Blocks can be secured to the deck by means of locking system or welded. Supporting height can be selected from 0,9 / 1,1 / 2,0m. Each sup-port is designed MBL/MSL 600/100 tons loads and cer-tified by Bureau Veritas.

>SEA FASTENING

Vessels are equipped with large stock of sea fastening equipment’s. Vessels have a large stock of standard lashing chains but also heavy duty turnbuckles and wires for securing large items. Heavy duty materials are certified by Bureau Veritas.

Transportations can be performed during winter ice season or during summer. Limitations of towage can be neglected as the transportation is performed with a ship, but if your cargo has limitations with allowed motions, these can be controlled by using ships Motion Monitoring System and advanced weather programs. Transit times are shorter and expenses are saved in ports and canals as assisting tug are not obligatory.

>OUR ACTIONS FOR  SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

We operate in a number of renewable energy and energy efficiency-re-lated projects both on land and offshore. We have set tough targets to decrease all waste from ships. We are the first company using biofuel in shipping, and we are constanly looking for new solutions for cutting our emissions. The raw material for our biofuel comes from industry side streams, and therefore is not competing against food production. The waste based bio oil is ethically sustainable and it reduces carbon dioxide emissions up to 96%. VG Marine EcoFuel is produced by VG EcoFuel Ltd that is part of our Group. Our production is audited by DNV GL and has a sustainability system certificate.
