“提升競爭力.造船業須採現代化技術”

(砂拉越.詩巫)馬來西亞海事工業公會會長丹斯里拿督斯里阿末蘭里表示,要提升大馬造船業的競爭能力,業者必須採用現代化的造船技術,並擬定造船作業的統一標准。

阿末蘭里今早在金地酒店舉行的“詩巫造船座談會”致開幕詞時表示,為了提升與鄰國如越南、印尼和菲律賓的競爭,大馬的造船業需要現代化的造船技術。

“在缺乏足夠的技術人才下,大馬造船業無法再繼續依賴廉價的勞工市場為競爭條件。我們有必要采用現代化的造船技術,如CNC切工機、3D設計技術,以便可以提高生產效率及節省所需的資源。”

阿末蘭里補充,大馬在造船業方面也迫切需要統一的作業標准,以便可以和造船業的引領國日本及韓國競爭。

“為了減低對政府的依賴,馬來西亞海事工業公會需要各成員配合,以便現代化技術及統一作業標准的建議,可以全面在大馬造船業有效實行。”

阿末蘭里指出,今年3月23日舉辦的第一屆國家海事工業峰會中就列明大馬造船業面對的挑戰,包括有限的本地市場、技術人員的短缺、高區域性的競爭、財務規劃、宣傳的不足及研發工作的缺乏。馬來西亞海事工業公正積極構思未來的發展藍圖,以帶領大馬海事工業繼續成長。

他表示,造船業者必須擬定相關措施以面對全球的經濟危機,并且通過在技術上的投資,加強自身在國際市場的競爭能力。

“UNITED SHIP DESIGN improves efficiency with FRIENDSHIP-Framework”

14. Jun. 2010 | Potsdam – Malaysian ship design and consultancy provider UNITED SHIP DESIGN SDN BHD (USD) has licensed the Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) software system FRIENDSHIP-Framework. USD is the first Malaysian customer of FRIENDSHIP SYSTEMS. The company introduces the software to its design and consultancy work to enhance both the performance and energy efficiency of its designs and to streamline and professionalize its process chains. The license of FRIENDSHIP-Framework 2.1 is part of a design package that FRIENDSHIP SYSTEMS offers in collaboration with Swedish flow expert FLOWTECH.

FRIENDSHIP-Framework is a CAE software system for the simulation-driven design of optimal functional surfaces like ship hulls, rudders, propellers and other maritime systems exposed to a flow regime. The development of optimally task-suitable, energy efficient, high performing designs is achieved in a streamlined design process which is built around integrated simulation. Parametric modelling, variant generation and assessment, as well as hydrodynamic optimization are key design steps which, fed by the simulation results, lead to an optimal design. As a dedicated flow code for the hydrodynamic assessment of ships and their flow phenomena, FLOWTECH’s SHIPFLOW has a proper interface to the FRIENDSHIP-Framework.

The Potsdam-based company has released the latest upgrade of the simulation-driven design software FRIENDSHIP-Framework, version 2.1, in late 2009. A new major release with further enhanced functionality and user-friendliness is planned for fall 2010.

“翁诗杰:寻求全面制度化 无限期展延船只2措施”

“去年12月31日建竣 船只可免级别鉴定”

Information from: http://www.seehua.com/index.php/sarawak/sibu/12309

砂拉越新闻 中砂

(本报诗巫18日讯)联邦副交通部长拿督刘会洲披露,在2009年12月31日之前建好的船只,一律免除级别鉴定的批准。

他说,这些船只只限于国内注册的,他们只需要接受检验人员对其质量与水平作出鉴定,即可被发出证书。

他说,当局将从吉隆坡调来更多的检验人员,到来检验所有已完成的船只,一旦获得通过即可获得证书。

拿督刘会洲今早在此间主持大马海事局官员与州内数个航运团体对话会后,向新闻界讲话。

他说,至于正在兴建中的船只,当局将给予他们半年时间的通融期,直到今年6月30日为止,一样享获这项优惠。

他说,从今年7月1日开始,所有的国内注册船只都需要经过级别的鉴定与批准。

另一方面,拿督刘会洲也提到说,联邦政府有计划统一全国的海事法令。

他说,砂沙两州拥有本身的海事法令,不过中央政府欲意全国统一。

他表示,这项建议目前尚在进行,还待两州政府与中央政府探讨中。

拿督刘会洲也表示,海事局将在砂沙鉴定一个中心点,确保在日后所颁布任何一项措施,各级官员都会清楚明白,不会出现行政与收费重叠事件。

“刘会洲:即起实施 注册船只全国通行”

Information from: http://www.seehua.com/index.php/sarawak/sibu/

砂拉越新闻 中砂

(本报诗巫18日讯)联邦副交通部长拿督刘会洲今天为航运业捎来好消息,国内注册的船只可以在全国各地,包括东马和纳闽,通行无阻。

他说,这项措施于即日起实施。

继续由海事局验船

同时,为了更方便船级鉴定工作和更合理的收费,海事局也继续为船只进行检验服务,而大马海事局也决定鉴定和批准各地具有合格的船舶绘测师和轮机工程师,去进行船级鉴定工作。

他说,在诗巫有3名专业人士受委进行这项鉴定工作,他们是汪孝言、汪理察及黄传庚 (United Ship Design)

拿督刘会洲今早在此间主持大马海事局官员与州内数个航运团体对话会后,向新闻界讲话。

他说,由即日起,大马海事局将继续负起在全国进行船只检验工作。

他表示,经接获太多的投诉,指海事局不再进行相关的检验工作,转交给一间私人公司去进行,然而有关的公司却推出不同的指标及高昂的收费。

调派更多检验人员

他说,基于海事局本身在国内各地都有检验人员,故而,只要配合当地的一些合格专业人士,海事局将收回委任公司进行检验工作,并由该局本身继续执行。

他表示,该局将会从吉隆坡调来更多的检验人员,到来服务。

同时,拿督刘会洲表示,海事局将会委任更多的公司来进行检验工作,包括砂、沙的公司,在有竞争的情况之下,收费也更具竞争力。

他说,虽然政府在当地委任专业人士协助进行检验工作,但是不会在质量与安全方面作出让步。
