 Savings with an entire system
Primary benefits of the Contra Rotating Propulsion system

For the last 15 - 20 years, the majority of Offshore Support Vessels have been propelled by various types
of azimuth propulsion systems. There is a common understanding in the market that when used in primary
propulsion, azimuth thrusters have advantages in DP and maneuverability conditions, but are less effective in
transit conditions. Recent history shows azimuth propulsion represents higher maintenance both in cost and
time when compared to CP or FP propeller systems, and thereby also higher down time.

The Scana Propulsion Contra Rotating Propulsion system has been model tested with the Salt 100 – design
from Salt Ship Design, which shows considerable savings compared to an azimuth propulsion system.

Simulated figures based on:

12 knots, 5.5m draught, 1.5m fwd trim (approx. 3000t deadweight)
Scana CRP: Propeller Data - Model test with CRP - 3.8m Ø forward propeller and 3.4m Ø aft propeller. El. motor load factor (PB/el. motor power) 0.34
Azimuth System: CRP Azimuth. El. motor load factor (PB/el. motor power) 0.33
Fuel calculations are based on specific fuel consumption of 185g/kWh. 250kW hotel and auxiliary load included.

 PROS & CONS THE CRP SOLUTION FEATURES MONEY-SAVING BENEFITS

Azimuth CRP

• Most common solution for PSVs • Less components and lower maintenance
Pros

• Good DP capability • Located far from shipside

• Advantages with regards to cargo tank arrangement • Center skeg protects shaftlines
• Attractive investment cost • Fixed-pitch monoblock propellers

• System with high insurance claims • Slightly less maneuverability in dynamic positioning
Cons

• Primary reason for high maintenance and off-hire than azimuths

• Directional stability can be an issue • Higher investment cost

Azimuth CRP

DYNAMIC POSITIONING MINIMAL DIFFERENCE IN DP CAPABILITIES

The difference in dynamic positioning

capabilities between azimuths and other
systems has long been misunderstood.
When compared to the Contra Rotating
Propulsion system, there is actually
minimal difference between each
system’s capabilities.

• Two aft tunnel thrusters provide

DP capability equivalent to azimuth
configurations
• DnV approved ERN 99.99.99.99

Conditions for DP Plot:

Scana CRP: 1x CRP, 2x tunnel thrusters in aft ship, and 2x
tunnel thrusters and 1x retractable azimuth in forward ship. CRP
Azimuth: 2x azimuths in aft ship, and 2x tunnel thrusters and Azimuth
1x retractable azimuth in forward ship.
