BRIESE SHIPPING BV
COMPLETE SET OF STERN TUBES, BEARINGS AND SEALS
BRIESE SHIPPING BV
We were honoured to equip a series of four new-build vessels for Briese Shipping BV with seals, bearings, wear-down and temperature sensors and the Supreme Ventus® air system. Driven by the demand for expertise and technical knowledge, the collaboration has been established with great satisfaction for several years now.
COMPLETE SET OF STERN TUBES, BEARINGS AND SEALS
Briese Shipping BV has a clear vision of shipbuilding, goes for solid products and strives to reduce the total costs of ownership. How to reach this? Proven products that offer the right endurance and monitoring functions. This is one of the reasons why Briese Shipping BV chose a complete set of Lagersmit bearings, seals and the Supreme Ventus air type system. It is an easily overlooked matter but using a perfectly attuned set of stern tubes, bearings and seals ensures:
A complete delivery of perfectly compatible partsOne single contact point
Easy installation
They chose to complete the package with the Supreme Ventus system because it can monitor several vital functions of the seal and stern tube system. The importance is obvious: operational feedback prevents surprises and ensures a stable performance of the system. Through the Supreme Ventus system, Briese Shipping BV ensures 24/7 feedback on:
Bearing clearanceTemperatures
Oil or water leakage drains into the vessel
VGP COMPLIANCE
An additional reason for Briese Shipping BV to choose Supreme Ventus is because it’s a simple way to comply with the VGP regulations. The Supreme Ventus ensures zero emissions of oil because it eliminates the oil-to-water interface with an air barrier and drains leakages safely into an internal drain tank. This makes the system suitable for use with mineral oil even in VGP controlled waters. After the completed successful new build projects, the joint teams looked into several retrofit opportunities where existing systems were upgraded or refitted to Supreme Ventus.
