Berge Bulk takes delivery of handy-size vessel Berge Rishiri

Berge Rishiri is the latest handy-size vessel to be added to the Berge Bulk fleet. She was delivered on 16th January 2017 at 0720 hours (local Singapore time). Sailing under the flag of the Isle of Man, she commences her maiden voyage to the Port of Longview in Washington State (USA), where she will be loaded for a log shipment before heading to China for discharge. Like her sister vessel, Berge Shari, she is equipped with the Propeller Boss Cap Fins (PBCF). PBCF is an energy saving device attached to the propeller of the vessel to improve its efficiency. This device, now fitted on many ships in our fleet, enables higher fuel savings. The technology used in her main engine electronically controls fuel injection and the exhaust value drive, which auto-tunes and ensures more efficient operation during slow-steaming. http://en.portnews.ru/news/232736/
