Delta Hamburg

Moin,
weiß jemand weshalb das Containerschiff Delta Hamburg seit mehreren Monaten an der noch nicht in Betrieb genommenen Containerpier in St. Petersburg liegt? Also es wurde angegeben das sie zur Reperatur der Maschine da sind aber dies kommt aufgrund der Dauer sehr komisch vor.

Moin Constantin,

06.09.10 MV Delta Hamburg – Main Engine Problem

Dear Customers,

Please be informed that m/v Delta Hamburg sustained damage to its main engine and is not operational until further notice.

While the discharging of all cargo was still completed over the weekend, any loading operation from St.Petersburg is so far not feasible.

Repairs were already ordered and Delta Shipping Lines is currently checking all options to overcome this emergency situation.

We will keep you duly updated about the further development.

For further information please do not hesitate to contact your local Delta Shipping office.

Yours Sincerely,
Delta Shipping Lines

Seitdem gibt es zu dem Thema keine weiteren Meldungen, demnach wird es sich hierbei um das aktuelle Problem handeln.
Ist dir bekannt, was genau an der Maschine defekt ist oder warum kommt dir die Dauer komisch vor?

Nach aktuellem Stand soll Delta Hamburg am 18.1. wieder in Dienst gehen.

Gruß
Martin

Moin Martin,
genaueres weiß ich nicht aber das Schiff ist glaube ich schon seit ca. 3-4 Monaten dort. Deshalb habe ich mich ein bisschen gewundert.

Gruß Constantin

DELTA HAMBURG (CYPRUS) St Petersburg, December 10
Fully-cellular containership Delta Hamburg which had engine trouble at St Petersburg on September 8: During one of their voyages the crew of the vessel noticed abnormal vibrations.
They opened up the inspection covers of the propulsion gearbox and found damaged teeth of the input shaft.
Because Stork gears and services was able to send a service engineer very quickly, Stork SGS was invited on board Delta Hamburg to conduct a more extensive gearbox inspection.
After removing the inspection cover it became clear that one tooth of the input gear was almost broken out of the shaft, the cracks ran through the complete root of the teeth on both sides.
Also the teeth before and after the broken teeth were cracked for almost the whole length of the teeth.
After the onsite inspection it became clear that the input pinion shaft needed to be renewed.The bullgear was also subject of further inspection and MPI (crack) tests.
For regrinding and geometrical checks we preferred to have the complete gearbox in a workshop in Rotterdam.
An additional benefit of having the complete gearbox in a workshop is that it is possible to perform a test run before it is sent back to the customer.
The output shaft was in quite a good condition. All bearing faces were according to requirements.
The gears on the output gearwheel showed some irregularities.
Some small marks were found in the middle of the teeth and some minor fretting was observed on the top ends of the teeth. – Lloyd’s Agents.
