Steerprop Ltd. The Azimuth Propulsion Company

It is our privilege to be able to bring together decades of experience to

serve the best possible outcome.Our customers demand the extreme, be their operations in arctic conditions or elsewhere.

我们非常荣幸能够提供有丰富经验的服务。使得我们的顾客们在他们极地地区或其他地方的业务上可以做到最好。

The climate is changing; the Arctic marine environment becomes more easily

operable and navigable. The evolving technology generates more appropriate vessels. Both of the developments contribute to the utilization of the natural resources and new waterways for transport making them a real option.

气候正在变化，极地地区下船舶航行的环境也变得越来越容易操控了。且不断改善的技术提供给更多适用的船。这些发展有利于自然资源的合理使用，也促成了运输业新水路的产生。

The emergence of azimuth propulsors for ice operating vessels started some

thirty years ago. The first vessels were harbor tugs assisting tankers at oil ports in Finland. Thereafter the range of applications has widened to include multipurpose and dedicated ice breakers, offshore support vessels, and arctic cargo and tank ships.

适用于冰上航行船所使用的全回转推进器出现在距今大约30年前。第一艘船是在芬兰港口油区帮运油桶而使用的拖船。此后，已广泛应用于多用途船、专用破冰船、近海补给船、极地货运船和油船上。

The power transmitting capability of the geared azimuth propul-sor units has

increased from the initial one megawatt to 8.4 MW that was applied in the recent Steerprop equipped ice breakers. The present evolutionary technical progress enables power throughput up to 16MW applying the most stringent ice class requirements at the same time.

由齿轮联接的全回转推进器单元的功率传输能力已经从最初的1兆瓦提升到如今

的8.4兆瓦，现在已经应用于最近装备了Steerprop产品的破冰船。过去发展的技术过程使得功率生产量提升到16兆瓦，能够同时应用于要求极高的冰级船的需求。

The feature of controlling the vectored thrust and also slip stream the full 360

degrees makes the azimuth propulsor a powerful tool for ice management. Be it either opening fairways, keeping arctic offshore installations free of ice pressure or blowing ice ridges the controllable slip stream of the propeller is always efficient. Focused propeller flow of a ducted propeller even enhances the ice blowing capacity.

能够360度控制矢量推力和推进器尾流的特色，使得全回转推进器成为冰上航行

管理的一个强大的工具。无论是拓开航道，保持极地船远离冰压或吹走冰纹，推进器可控的尾流总是非常有效地。管道式的推进器产生的集中性的推进器流使之能够促进吹冰的能力。

The members of Steerprop team have played decisive role in the development of

azimuth propulsion to second to none solution for ice operations. The dedication and work continues: we are ready for new challenges.

Steerprop工作团队内的成员在全回转推进器的发展进程中起着决定性的角色，如今我们将继续迎接新的挑战

以Steerprop全回转推进器为特色的极地破冰船

The Lukoil ice breaking vessels, the Toboy and Varandey operate in the Barents Sea of Russia. In the ice they will assist oil tankers sailing in and out the Varandey Terminal. The Toboy and Varandey are designed for solid ice of 1.5 m and over 1.7m thick and operation in very low temperatures.

Lukoil破冰船，在俄罗斯巴伦支海航行的Toboy船和Varandey船，在冰雪区域，他们会帮助油轮进出Varandey中断。Toboy船和Varandey船被设计可以使用在1.5米厚或超过1.7米的坚冰上和极低温的情况下。
