2 December 2014 December issue / Comment 1 Who to contact at Lloyd s Register Bob Simpson Global Lead for Naval Ships Robert.simpson@lr.org or +44 (0) Jim Gorton Senior Specialist, Naval Business Development jim.gorton@lr.org or +44 (0) Lloyd s Register has been involved with the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) for more than 100 years, supporting the MoD with the challenges of naval safety assurance for its fleet. Today, LR supports navies around the world in the naval ship safety assurance arena through the application of Naval Classification and Naval Rules and overseeing the greater requirements of naval ship safety assurance. These efforts support individual navies endeavours and supplement their resources, allowing them to be confident about the material state of their ships and, consequently, their safety. For more information please contact: Bob Simpson, LR s Global Lead, Naval Ships (robert.simpson@lr.org or +44 (0) ) or Jim Gorton, LR s Lead Specialist, Naval Business Development (jim.gorton@lr.org or +44 (0) ) Contents Comment LHDs bolster Australian Navy Royal Navy of Oman greets new flagship Goal-based codes approved by INSA UK Royal Navy wins order for OPVs LR signs ToC contract for Swedish Navy LR s global navy projects The nearly completed Australian LHD HMAS Canberra Lloyd s Register s presence in the naval sector continues to grow around the globe. Recent contracts include overseeing the two Queen Elizabeth Class aircraft carriers project for the UK; oversight of the first of the Royal Australian Navy s Canberra Class LHDs; providing Classification Services for the new Omani yacht, RNOV Shabab Oman (Youth of Oman); providing Classification and support services Image courtesy of Christian Pearson/Misheye to the new UK Royal Navy OPVs; publishing the first edition of the Naval Submarine Code which was approved by INSA; being selected to provide Classification and support to a group of training ships in the Swedish Navy. Read about these and our other global activities in this specially produced supplement for EXPONAVAL in Valparaiso, Chile.

Image courtesy of Australian Department of Defence/Photographer One might believe that a great deal has changed since 1859.That was the year when LR classed the first Naval ship, the Portuguese vessel Donna Maria Anna, built by the John Scott Russell yard in Glasgow, Scotland. But what exactly has changed? The world has passed through destructive times of high and low intensity conflict punctuated by periods of relative peace. The nature of the threats may have changed (from nation pitted against nation to asymmetric warfare from small groups) but every nation s desire to protect its own interests and prevent conflict remains as strong as ever. A nation s ability to build naval assets indigenously may be the preserve of fewer countries than in the past economics have largely dictated that. Our budgets don t buy what they used to everything is much more expensive, especially high-end technology. Comment A change for the better Ian Miller, LR s UK and Ireland Naval Business Manager However what has been strengthened is the desire of like-minded nations to collaborate and co-operate in common interests. This is evidenced by the collaboration between nations in providing naval platforms for ships and submarines and by the development of the Naval Ship and Submarine Codes. LR has passed through this same history, becoming a world class global provider of assurance services today with Naval Classification at its core applying the many lessons and experiences along the way to provide pragmatic and beneficial solutions. Our mission to protect the seafarer, property and our environment has not wavered. This edition of Naval Focus provides a number of excellent examples of global projects with LR working at the centre of a global team. The Australian LHD Project built in Navantia, Ferrol in Spain and by BAE in Williamstown in the Commonwealth of Australia is being supported by LR teams in Spain and Australia and by the Naval Team in Bristol, UK. The team in Bristol works at the heart of our naval business and forms the centre of expertise in the application of LR Naval Ship Rules and the Naval Codes, having been instrumental in their development since their inception. We regularly provide support and advice across the world from Chile to China, Australia to Canada, Oman to Sweden, the Netherlands to Algeria and many other places in between. We are here ready to help you. Much like LR did in What has been strengthened is the desire of like-minded nations to collaborate and co-operate in common interests. This is shown by the collaboration between nations in providing naval platforms for ships and submarines...
3 2 December issue / Australian LHDs December issue / Australian LHDs 3 LHDs strengthen Australian Navy s global presence A three-phase project to build two amphibious assault ships (LHDs) both classed and approved under LR s Naval Ship Rules was carried out in two different hemispheres Image courtesy of Australian Department of Defence/Photographer The supply chains for these two ships, being constructed in two hemispheres, are extensive and complex. Since the ships are being classed to LR s Rules, we have been a key part of the assurance activity in these supply chains The recent delivery of HMAS Canberra, the first of two amphibious assault ships (LHDs), will make the Australian Defence Force one of the most capable and sophisticated airland-sea amphibious deployment forces in the world. The two 48,000-tonne Canberra Class LHDs will be capable of landing a force of more than 2,000 personnel by helicopter and watercraft. The prime contract for this project was won by Tenix, an Australian company which has since been taken over by BAE Systems (Australia), and they in turn sub-contracted the build and outfitting of the two hulls to Navantia in Ferrol, Spain based on Navantia s successful Juan Carlos design. The superstructures, combat and communications systems were assembled and installed by BAE Systems in Williamstown, Australia. Steel cutting for HMAS Canberra started in September 2008 and she was launched in February For the next phase of The recently delivered HMAS Canberra her construction, she was transported from Ferrol to Williamstown where she was delivered to her owners, the Commonwealth of Australia (CoA), in September Building work on her sister ship, HMAS Adelaide, began at Ferrol in early 2010 and she is due for delivery to the CoA in mid Lloyd s Register has been closely involved with this project from the early concept phase some 10 years ago and continues to work with the shipbuilders and the CoA in supporting the delivery of ships that meet the CoA s requirements for safety assurance. As part of our early services to the CoA, LR was involved in conducting a review of the function and performance specifications supplied by contract bidders in respect of Classification aspects. This review was to assist the CoA with their project risk management. The selection by the CoA to have these ships designed and built to LR s Naval Rules was an integral part of their strategy to identify, manage and mitigate project risks and to ensure that the delivered platforms met the CoA s requirements to demonstrate an effective safety management system. In addition to the use of LR s Naval Ship Rules, a Tailoring Document was developed between the designer Navantia and LR to clearly identify the standards and requirements of the CoA to be used for the design, construction and assessment criteria to be applied to these ships. The supply chains for these two ships, being constructed in two different hemispheres, are extensive from a geographical perspective and complex. Since the ships are being Classed to LR s Rules, we have been a key part of the assurance activity in these supply chains. This is to ensure that there has been a consistent application of standards to the many items contributing to the ships that fall under the scope of Classification. Robert Tully, LR s Project Manager, said: This has provided value to the end client (the CoA), the shipbuilders and Navantia s technical office in obtaining assurance on the ship and the equipment being supplied to it being within the scope of LR s Naval Ship Rules as tailored to meet the associated Commonwealth s requirements. LR has applied these Rules consistently over the past seven years to a very complex project using sound processes being executed by a team of very competent LR Surveyors in the LR Project Design Support offices and the LR shipyard site offices in both Ferrol and Williamstown. These Surveyors have been supported by LR s global workforce of Surveyors and Inspectors who have carried on supporting the project to out-surveys and inspections in manufacturers premises in different locations throughout the globe. Because of the nature of this project, LR decided early that our Project Manager should be assigned to the full project and, as such, Robert Tully has moved from Australia to Spain and now back to Australia again as the ships reach the final phases of their construction. As the first of class heads off to Sydney for the final preparations for entering service with the Royal Australian Navy, Tully and the team can concentrate their efforts on working with Navantia and BAE in bringing her sister ship, HMAS Adelaide, to her inservice date.
4 4 December issue / Australian LHDs December issue / Oman flagship 5 LR s LHD project teams: LR s surveyors in Melbourne, Australia, with HMAS Canberra in the background LR s surveyors with HMAS Canberra in Ferrol, Spain The LHD has been designed with the shallowest possible draft to allow it to operate in secondary ports and harbours as well as manoeuvre tactically in the shallow waters commonly found in the littoral regions Australian LHD: facts and figures The LHD HMAS Canberra will carry and deploy an embarked force (Army in the case of the Australian Defence Force but could equally be an allied Army or group of Marines) with their equipment and aviation units, and carry out and/or support humanitarian missions. It is built with a conventional steel monohull design with the superstructure located on the starboard side of the flight deck. There are four main decks: the well dock and heavy vehicle deck for heavy vehicles and/or cargo; main accommodation deck, including the primary casualty reception facility (PCRF); hangar and light vehicle deck for lightweight vehicles and cargo; and the flight deck. The LHD has been designed with the shallowest possible draft to allow it to operate in secondary ports and harbours as well as manoeuvre tactically in the shallow waters commonly found in the littoral regions. Maximum speed is in excess of 20 knots with a range of 6,000 nautical miles (nm), a sustained maximum speed of 19 knots under full-load conditions and an economic cruising speed of 15 knots with a range of 9,000 nm. It can also reverse with full directional control at up to 8 knots. The vessel has a stern ramp/door that provides access to the well dock for landing craft and vehicles along with a fixed ramp (steel beach) between the well dock and the heavy vehicle/cargo deck (1,410 m²). Additionally two lateral ramp doors are located on the starboard side and provide wharf access to the heavy vehicle/cargo deck for vehicles weighing up to 65 tonnes. Vehicular access between the heavy and light vehicle decks is achieved via a fixed ramp located on the port side. The well dock is 69.3 metres long and 16.8 metres wide (1,165 m²) and the LHD will normally carry four LCM 1Es. The main accommodation deck is located above the well dock and heavy vehicle/cargo deck and includes crew accommodation, mess decks, medical spaces, galley facilities, office spaces and recreation rooms. Accommodation is provided for 1,400 personnel - approximately 400 crew members including the watercraft and flight deck crews and 1,000 embarked force personnel including the PCRF, embarked flight, HQ staff and landing force. The LHD will be jointly crewed with personnel from the Navy, Army and Air Force forming the ship s company. The LHD s flight deck is metres long and 32 metres wide (4,750m²), allowing the ship to operate a range of ADF rotary wing aircraft including: MRH-90 helicopter CH-47 Chinook helicopter UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter S-70B-2 Seahawk Armed reconnaissance helicopter MH-60R Romeo Seahawk Specifications: Overall length metres Moulded beam 32 metres Beam waterline 29.5 metres Flight deck height 27.5 metres Draft at full load displacement 7.08 metres Full load displacement 27,500 tonnes The LHD utilises an electric drive system similar to that used by major cruise companies such as Cunard. The propulsion/generating plant includes the following main elements: One gas turbine (LM 2500) turbo generator of 19,160 kw Two MAN 16V32/40 diesel generators of 7,448 kw each Two Siemens azimuth POD units of 11.0 MW each fitted with two propellers of approximately 4.5 metres in diameter Two bow thrusters of 1,500 kw each One Progener-Mitsubishi S16R PTA emergency diesel generator of 1,350 kw LR certifies three-mast flagship for Royal Navy of Oman Key parts of the royal flagship were built according to Lloyd s Register s recently introduced Certification of Masts, Spars and Standing Rigging The Shabab Oman II in full sail Recently delivered by Damen Schelde Naval Shipbuilding, Shabab Oman II, the Royal Navy of Oman s new 87-metre-long flagship is a steel-hulled three-mast, full square rigger. The vessel was built to design principles set for the iconic tea clippers of the 19th century, benefiting from 21st-century technology and comfort and featuring a fully unfurled sail area of 2,700 m². The certification, which was completed following successful sea trials under sail, included the design appraisal and survey of the masts, the assembly of the standing and running rigging and certification of all associated components in accordance with LR s recently introduced Certification of Masts, Spars and Standing Rigging. The Shabab Oman II will travel around the world as an ambassador for Oman. Protecting the safety of the people on board and of the vessel itself and thus assuring that the Royal Navy of Oman can do this in the safest possible way is of the utmost importance to Lloyd s Register, commented LR s Project Manager Wilko Groeneveld.

5 6 December issue / Naval Submarine Code December issue / Naval Submarine Code 7 Images show delegates at INSA s annual general meeting The Naval Ship Code (ANEP 77) The Naval Ship Code is a goal-based standard that determines the minimum level of safety for all naval vessels. It is a formal document published by NATO (as the publication ANEP 77) and covers the Code and its supporting guide. Naval Submarine Code wins INSA seal of approval Naval delegates agree that improvements to the latest goal-based codes enable navies to maintain the correct balance between military safety and military capability The pioneering Naval Submarine Code was discussed and approved at the 2014 International Naval Safety Association s (INSA) annual general meeting (AGM) in Stockholm from 21 to 22 October The AGM, which was held at the Van de Nootska Palatset, a beautiful 17th-century palace built by the Dutch entrepreneur Thomas van der Noot, was followed by the INSA Submarine Code Working Group meeting at the same venue on 23 October. Set up in 2008, INSA is an international association of navies and classification societies which seeks to develop costeffective, goal-based standards for naval ship and submarine safety. INSA s Steering Committee Chairman, Commander H. A. Fransbergen from the Netherlands Navy, chaired both meetings. The secretariat of LR and DNV GL classification societies has worked assiduously throughout 2014 to support the development of the Naval Ship and Naval Submarine Codes in partnership with a number of working groups. Significant improvements have been made to the codes and INSA s understanding of the application of goal-based standards. Their three key priorities were to clarify how the codes should handle peacetime and combat operating conditions with clear definitions of those terms; the development of common damage stability standards to suit a variety of ship types; and updates that provide commonality between the ship and submarine codes were approved. In his introduction, Cdr Fransbergen said his aim for this AGM, like its predecessors, was to debate the proposals before it to maintain the correct balance of military safety and military capability. Paul James, LR s Principal Naval Specialist and Programme Manager, said: In the annual feedback session, a number of Navies reported using the Naval Ship Code as the basis for demonstrating the safety of both the existing naval fleet and a number of newbuild ships. We are clearly moving from a development phase into an application phase as the code matures, and this is very rewarding for all those involved. It is also interesting to see that the Naval Ship Code is being discussed at IMO as a credible example of a goal-based standard. We look forward to a similar response for the new Naval Submarine Code when it is ratified. Following agreement of the codes at the AGM, the Naval Submarine and Naval Ship Codes will be put forward to NATO for agreement to publish a new Allied Naval Engineering Publication (ANEP) and an update of ANEP 77 in the spring of The submarine world tends to be far more safety critical than other sectors and so the advantage and flexibility of goal-based standards should give the proper framework for further work and development in the field. Robin Townsend LR s Principal Specialist on Naval Submarine Rule Development Robin Townsend, LR s Principal Specialist on Naval Submarine Rule Development, said: It was excellent news for builders, operators and sailors when the INSA AGM endorsed the new goal-based Naval Submarine Code for submission to NATO. Surface ships have long enjoyed the vital ability to benchmark themselves against international government (e.g. IMO) and commercial practices in order to be able to verify safety levels for their ships. The completion of this critical first stage for the Naval Submarine Code properly opens the door for the submarine fleet to identify and achieve similar benefits. The submarine world tends to be far more safety critical than other sectors and so the advantage and flexibility of goal-based standards should give the proper framework for further work and development in the field. For more information please contact the secretariat When we were in Stockholm some members of INSA took advantage of the late opening of the Vasa Museum to look at this extremely impressive exhibit and remind ourselves of why our work is so important (the Vasa capsized on her maiden voyage after a few hundred yards due to stability issues). The current naval members of INSA are: Australia, Canada, Denmark, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, South Africa, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Classification society members are: Lloyd s Register, the American Bureau of Shipping, Bureau Veritas, DNV GL, the Polish Register, RINA and Türk Loydu. Benefits of a goalbased standard The benefits of a goal-based standard, as opposed to one based on existing rules, are that it considers the ultimate safety objective and allows for the consideration of alternative designs that meet that objective. In the paper Goal-based Regulation The NATO Naval Ship Code, 2014 by James and McKay, the authors write: In the past, traditional prescriptive standards were developed mainly in response to incidents but this is no longer seen by society as sufficient and there is an expectation that reasonably foreseeable risks should be recognised and accounted for in a ship s design and operation. The introduction of novel technologies and methods to shipbuilding and maintenance challenges existing prescriptive rules and regulations. To prevent innovation being stifled the use of a goal-based standard gives the designer the opportunity to develop alternative solutions to meet the objectives. This however does challenge those responsible for assessing the designs to understand and ensure that the solutions being proposed fully meet the objectives. Development and maintenance INSA is responsible for maintaining and developing the Naval Ship Code and the Naval Submarine Code. It welcomes applications from navies and classification societies involved in naval business. More details of INSA and links to the latest version of the Naval Ship Code can be found at:
6 8 December issue / UK wins OPVs December issue / Swedish ToC 9 LR wins class for new UK Royal Navy OPVs Swedish Navy training ships classed by LR (Left to rigth) The Swedish Navy s System Leader for Training Ships, Peter Milton, LR Surveyor Hans Ericsson, Lt Cdr Anders Agar of the Swedish Navy, and ToC Project Manager Anders Bergström in front of HMS Antares and two of her sister ships Lloyd s Register has been asked to class, approve and certify the building of a trio of offshore patrol vessels A contract to build three Offshore Patrol Vessels (OPVs) for the UK Royal Navy has been awarded to BAE Surface Ships by the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD). Classed by Lloyd s Register, the 90-metre-long vessels will be used to support counter-terrorism, counter-piracy and anti-smuggling operations in the waters around the UK. Built at BAE s Govan shipyard in Glasgow, Scotland, the River Class Batch II vessels will provide an opportunity to transform elements of Royal Naval activities, said Jim Gorton, LR s Naval Business Support Specialist. The OPVs are based on a proven vessel design that is already operating with the Brazilian and Royal Thai Navies. The vessels will be capable of operating the Merlin helicopters used by the UK Armed Forces. LR is providing classification and certification services based on an established set of commercial rules and statutory standards with the aim of producing a capable and cost-efficient design having a specification familiar to suppliers and close to the original vessels, said Gorton. To support this procurement strategy, LR is providing additional services to meet the wider scope and particular requirements of the Naval Administration. This will help BAE Systems gain the necessary Naval Certification using a commercial baseline. Having provided class and certification Image courtesy of BAE Systems for the previous ships, LR can draw on a detailed and extensive knowledge of the ship design. First steel for the first of the vessels, HMS Forth, was cut at BAE s Govan facility, on 10 October 2014 by Bernard Gray, the UK MoD s Chief of Defence Material. Design review of the updated design has started and LR is currently putting in place a team of surveyors to support the shipyard and its suppliers. The OPVs are based on a proven vessel design that is already operating with the Brazilian and Royal Thai Navies. The vessels will be capable of operating the Merlin helicopters used by the UK Armed Forces Lloyd s Register has signed a Transfer of Class (ToC) to certify a group of Swedish training vessels Two Swedish training vessels HMS Antares and HMS Altair the first of a group of five were recommended for acceptance into LR class in September and issued with interim certificates. The three remaining vessels are due to be transferred later this year. Anders Bergström, Senior LR Surveyor and ToC Project Manager, handed over the Certificate of Class to Lieutenant Commander Anders Agar, Commanding Officer of the Swedish Navy s Training Ship Division. It was a smooth and easy transfer process, the ships seemed practical and efficient for their purposes and they are well maintained... This is a great opportunity to see how the Swedish Navy is working and managing their ships. It has been a very positive experience and I am sure that we will be able to give them the technical support they are looking for, said Bergström. The Swedish Navy has the task of organising and training naval and amphibious units and operates in navigable coastal waters in the Swedish archipelago and on the open sea. The vessels participate in missions where the target is on, above or beneath the surface of the sea. The blue and brown water units are organised in flotillas and the littoral units in battalions and cover the following fields: Naval warfare flotillas with mission capability against targets above, beneath and on the sea surface, in navigable coastal waters and on the open seas, mine clearing capability, control of sea areas and the protection of merchant shipping and fishing vessels; Submarine flotillas with mission capability against targets on and beneath the surface, stealth surveillance of sea areas and intelligence gathering; Amphibious battalions with the capability to secure coastal and archipelago areas and missions against targets on and beneath the surface; Naval bases including the Base Battalion and Naval Intelligence Battalion with the capability of monitoring Swedish territorial waters and supporting other units with essential supplies and services; Command and control units that command combined forces from different naval units. The Swedish Defence Material Administration (FMV) has recently taken overall responsibility for both procurement and maintenance throughout the life cycle of technical systems like aircraft, armoured vehicles and warships. Jim Gorton, LR s Lead Naval Business Support Specialist, said: Part of the Lloyd s Register strategy is to grow the Naval business, and this includes the number of ships maintained in Class as well as new construction. The fact that these ships are transferring to LR is very welcome news. We are continually trying to demonstrate the benefits of working with Lloyd s Register for naval ship safety assurance and this is a great example of how a respected navy has accepted this.
