Rolls-Royce will provide propulsion systems and deck machinery for five cruise ships

According to the latest contract, Rolls-Royce will supply Promas systems, deck machinery and steering gear for two cruise ships under construction at Viking Ocean Cruises. The company will also provide deck machinery and steering gear for a cruise ship under construction at Regent Seven Seas Cruises and a steering gear for two cruise ships under construction at Princess Cruises.

The Promas system, developed with the latest fluid dynamics, integrates propellers, hubcaps, rudder balls and rudders into an efficient fluid-powered system that improves single-propeller ship propulsion efficiency by 3-8%, twin propeller ship propulsion efficiency 2- 6%, and can improve airworthiness, reduce fuel consumption and emissions.

It is reported that the modular series of winches and windlass will help to combine a series of standard mooring winches, chain lifts and winches, making it an efficient and cost-effective custom system that meets the ship's deck configuration and requirements, and is designed for easy installation. .
