Shore based gas engineer project A global cooperative success within the Eitzen Group By Simon Frank, Personnel Manager TESMA (Denmark) Since the first Sigloo Gas vessels were enlisted to the fast growing number of Eitzen operated vessels back in 2004, they have been a great challenge to all the entities that have been involved in their operation. Especially all the cargo operations involving ethylene have been forcing the staff on board and ashore to maximize the effort to get the best result. With the commercial success that the ships represent, they have, from day one, been trading in tough schedules with a minimum perspective for maintenance. As a result the technical and operational staff around the ships has been forced to constantly think in innovative ways to OPTIMISE THE EARNING POTENTIAL for the ship owner. Around mid 2005 one of these innovative measures was created. It was decided to establish a position called Shore Based Gas Engineer (SBGE). The idea was to establish a "task force" consisting of 2-3 people that, from a base ashore, were able to meet the ships in areas where they were facing ethylene operations. Their job would be to assist the on board crew in the complexities connected to the operation of the cargo cooling facilities. Apart from that task they should also, while on passage, train the officers on board in how to use and optimise these facilities. The idea took its final form after a meeting held at the officer conference in Saint Petersburg in November 2005, and 1st December 2005 the project was launched. The first SBGE was Mr. Mickovs who travelled between the various Sigloo vessels. A few months later the second SBGE, Mr Dedkovski, was employed. These two SBGEs were taken from our pool of already experienced gas engineers and are working in a rotation to ensure that one of them is always on duty and ready to join a ship on a short notice. At this stage it is fair to say that the project has been a success. The SBGEs have been able to attend most of the ships that have been carrying ethylene, and they have been one of the most important reasons that the accumulated off hire in connection with cargo cooling has been minimised. The long term goal for the project is to build up an experienced gas engineer pool that can carry out the jobs on board without assistance from a shore based team. No matter what, the project has proven to be an example of good cooperation between many parts from the Eitzen Group, and we hope that this will be an example for future projects and ideas that can be launched in cooperation with many parts of the Eitzen Group. 5
