Capable of accommodating over 6500 people, the first domestically produced large cruise ship has begun its first sea trial at the dock | Test | Domestic
The reporter learned from Shanghai Waigaoqiao Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of China Shipbuilding Corporation, that China's first domestically produced large cruise ship, "Aida Modu", departed from the dock on the morning of the 17th and began its first trial voyage.
After successfully undocking on June 6th, the "Aida Modu" completed a series of tests such as bow side propulsion equipment dock mooring test, paralyzed ship test, and power loss test before the trial voyage. The entire ship's interior installation area had also reached a light state before the trial voyage. On June 25th, through the joint efforts and collaborative cooperation of multiple departments, the "Aida Modu" successfully completed the mooring test of three bow side thruster equipment docks. This side push equipment debugging involved the joint debugging of three devices, and it took a total of 6 days from the official operation of the equipment to the completion of inspection, which was highly recognized by the shipowner and ship inspection.
It is understood that both the paralyzed ship test and the power loss test are standardized items for ship inspection, and are the most typical functional tests for ships in emergency situations. Two experiments involve the operation of the entire ship's equipment, especially the rapid recovery function of the main thrusters, which can ensure the safety of the ship's navigation at sea.
The total tonnage of the Aida Modu is 135500 tons, with 2826 cabins and a capacity of over 6500 people. It is known as a "mobile maritime city". According to the plan, the ship will be named and delivered by the end of this year.
