7 Reference Double-Hull Designs

  7.1 Data for four reference double-hull designs of 5,000 dwt, 60,000 dwt, 150,000 dwt and 283,000 dwt are summarized in tables 7.1 and 7.2 and are illustrated in figures 5 to 8. Table 7.1 also contains the data for the oil outflow parameters POR, OMR and OER to be used for the concept approval (ship survivability not considered).

  7.2 Table 7.2 contains the corresponding data to be used for the shipyard design approval (ship survivability considered).
