Sailing Speed Control of Fully Loaded VLCC for Berthing D22 Terminal in Dong Jiakou
To ensure the safe navigation and berthing of a fully loaded VLCC at Dongjiakou D22 terminal,This paper analyzed the longitudinal force during navigation for this type of vessel.Based on the ideal longitudinal movement of a fully loaded VLCC under conditions without wind,current,and shallow water effects,the longitudinal characteristics and maneuvering measures of this type of vessel were discussed under the influence of wind,current,and shallow water effects.Finally,through actual ship operations,the effectiveness and rationality were verified.
