🚢 Exciting News from the European Commission CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency Gaters Project! 🌊 As one of the principal aims of the EU Gaters Project, we're thrilled to share a major milestone achieved in our quest for sustainable and efficient maritime solutions. 🌟 Retrofitting the MV ERGE with the Gate Rudder System (GRS) 🌟 MV ERGE, a 5500 DWT dry-cargo ship, originally equipped with a conventional rudder system (CRS), underwent a transformative retrofit. In collaboration with our partners, we embarked on a journey to assess the impact of the GRS retrofit on both performance and underwater radiated noise (URN) levels. 🌊 Conducting Sea Trials and URN Measurements 📊 Our dedicated team meticulously conducted sea trials before and after the GRS retrofit. URN measurements were carried out in accordance with BV’s rule notes (NR 614 DT R02 E), ensuring precision and repeatability, while monitoring real-time environmental conditions. To accurately gauge the impact of GRS, we performed measurements at various ship speeds, adhering to rule notes guidelines. The GPS coordinates of the vessel and support boat were recorded in real-time. 📈 Promising Results: Reduced Noise Emissions with GRS 🤫 Our analysis yielded promising results! The GRS configuration demonstrated a significant reduction in noise levels, exceeding 10 dB compared to the CRS configuration. This reduction is attributed to its effect on propeller loading and cavitation extent. These findings underscore the importance of further exploration into the noise-reducing potential of GRS, offering valuable insights into URN characteristics and the implications of decreased noise emissions post-retrofit. 🌐 Join Us at the IMO Workshop! 🌐 We're excited to announce that the Gaters Coordination team, including Prof. Mehmet Atlar, Dr Batuhan Aktas, CEng and Çağatay Sabri Köksal, will be presenting our findings at the IMO Workshop on the relationship between Energy Efficiency and Underwater Radiated Noise, taking place on the 18th and 19th of September at IMO Headquarters in London. Stay tuned for more updates and discussions on the future of sustainable maritime solutions. Together, we're charting a course towards quieter and more eco-friendly seas. 🌊⚓ #GATERSProject #MaritimeInnovation #SustainableShipping #UnderwaterNoise #IMOWorkshop

The construction of the 950-meter-long twin-tube Kolltveit Tunnel is now underway. This marks the initiation of the first tunnel among the seven that Pini Group has designed on behalf of Sotra Link for the Sotrasambandet project in Norway. The new tunnel will serve as a replacement for the existing single-tube tunnel. One of the notable challenges involves the excavation using controlled blasting techniques in close proximity to the existing infrastructure. The road initiative aims to tackle the increasing traffic volume between Sotra and Bergen, aiming to alleviate congestion points for commuters in the Nye Øygarden and Bergen areas. Rv 555 Sotrasambandet is set to enhance accessibility to urban hubs, major roadways, railways, the airport, and maritime transportation. This project will also enhance overall mobility, including slow mobility, public transit provisions, travel efficiency, and road safety. #pinigroup #smartengineering #joinus

Apostoli Daniele for your Projects now in Qatar to coordinate all the Middle East area. High-speed fold-up door A high-speed fold-up door conceived, designed and built to measure for the closure of big industrial openings. Wind resistance, reliability and maintenance ease characterize Saildoor® as a unique product in the world scene. Saildoor® closure boasts the highest class of wind resistance, that is class 5 of the UNI EN 12424 standard, and it has been certified according to UNI EN 12444 Ch. 7.1, which certifies the resistance of the whole structure. The materials with which it is made tolerate temperature changes and atmospheric agents, making Saildoor® suitable for the most difficult contexts. The particular structure allows a simple and quick maintenance thanks to the placement on the ground of the mechanical components. Saildoor® ranks among the most sensitive solutions to the environmental impact. This is made possible by low energy consumption and with a high opening / closing speed guaranteeing significant savings in terms of air conditioning. https://lnkd.in/d9jMqXtM

The bleaching happening this year is severe worldwide! There is another alert for bleaching in the north of Mozambique. Last year, the corals of a small reef in Inhaca Island in the south suffered greatly, while the north remained unaffected by bleaching. This year, the situation in the north is particularly severe. The state of our oceans is a major concern for us. https://lnkd.in/djTWdVXy

Crisis Alert: Severe Bleaching Strikes Northern Mozambique and WIO Islands In the last year, Ponta Torres in Inhaca experienced a profound bleaching episode, resulting in extensive mortality of an Acropora bank. Alarmingly, this year's projections indicate an exacerbation of these events. A recently issued bleaching alert underscores the gravity of the situation. It's evident that mere preservation efforts may no longer suffice. The time has come for proactive action, necessitating comprehensive restoration projects to mend the wounds inflicted upon our precious planet. https://lnkd.in/dncD8BUW

Dentons Delany facilitated a collaboration between Seven Seas Water Group (SSW), and the Antigua Public Utilities Authority (APUA) on the signing of a 12-year Build-Own-Operate-Transfer agreement for the construction of two new seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) plants. These plants will be strategically located adjacent to the existing facilities at Ffryes Beach and Ivan Rodrigues, utilizing some of the existing infrastructure. Implementation of the new plants will occur in two phases, with Ffryes Beach expected to commence water production within seven months of signing the agreement, and Ivan Rodrigues eighteen months later. This new venture will not only address the need to meet the increasing water demand, and expansion of water production sources. But also, significantly contributes to expanding and improving the local water infrastructure, combining a total of three million imperial gallons of daily drinking water production capacity to the people of Antigua. Marking a crucial enhancement of increased production capacity to meet the growing demand spurred by increased tourism, cruise ship arrivals, and economic activity on the island. Progressing this collaboration ensures a quick, reliable, and cost-effective water production source, fostering a strong, local, long-term partnership. The official press release from SSW can be viewed here. #DentonsDelany #AntiguandBarbuda #infrastructure
