The Marine Ship ‘Tanker’ is a ship in which oil, chemicals

or any liquid forms are loaded to export or import.

In Oil Tanker (Ship) there are some hatches to load oil,

petrol or other liquid fluids.

Cargos are loaded with the ballast pumping process in

order to stable the Ship.

The project will be used for the trading and Merchant

Navy’s purpose.

The driving system of an Oil Tanker (Ship) will be control

through XBEE module.

INTRODUCTION:INTRODUCTION

The main problem in launching an Oil Tanker (Ship) is competing in a huge market of ship builders and Ship manufacturing companies .

oBut China our friendly country may help us to launch Pakistani Oil Tanker for economical rates to Middle East and SAARC countries.

To launch this project is to have a research study and material hunting.

Nowadays, the ballast water tanks is measured by the tube scale and then mariner manually control the ballast pumping process according to the measurement of ballast water.

oTo eliminate manual control of Ballast Pumping process, we made it autonomous. While loading an Oil Tank the ballast pumping process will be done automatically on the same time.

Another problem is manual control of driving section through wheel. So, in order to eliminate the manual control of driving…..

oWe have controlled the driving section through XBEE transceiver.

As a Mechatronics Engineer this project is a little bit expensive to represent but teamwork sharing the loads in order to successful completion of Ship.

OBJECTIVE

FUNCTIONALITY:

LOADING OIL HATCHES: While loading and unloading an Oil Hatches, ballast pumping process done in order to keep stable an Oil Tanker (Ship).

Initially all the Ballast Tanks are filled with water. Then the oil will be charge on one port, and on the same time the ballast water will be discharge from the respective port to maintain the stability of Ship.

DRIVING SECTION: Then Oil Tanker move towards the desired position where to export and import cargo through XBEE Transciever.

FUNCT IONALITY

UNLOADING OIL TANKS: After reaching at desire position, Oil is ready to unload. At unloading part initially all the oil tanks are filled with oil. Then the oil will be unload on one port, and on the same time the ballast water will be load on the respective port in order to ship keeps stable.

BALLAST PUMPING PART:

Valve ‘WUv’ is for unloading & ‘WLv’ is for Water loading Valve, ‘OUPm’ is for Oil unloading pumping machine. ‘WUPm’ is for Water unloading pumping machine, ‘WLPm’ is for Water loading pumping machine & ‘OUPm’ is for Oil.

System initialized.Pumping machine ‘WLPm’ and ‘WLv2’ activated.Charge ballast water tank #2. ‘WLv1’& ‘WLv2’ valve activated.Charge ballast water tank #1 & 3 simultaneously.Load oil hatch #1 manually.Float Sensor Potentiometer resistance varies as oil level changes.Ballast Tank Valve ‘WUv1’ and ‘WUPm’ activated.Discharge ballast tank #1 simultaneously.Then oil hatch # 2 & 3 will be load as well.Oil loading and Ballast Pumping process completed.DC motor and servo motor initialization.Control the Propeller and Rudder through XBEE transciever.Ship moves towards desire location.Unload Oil hatch #1 through switch.Pumping Machine ‘OUPm’ activated. Pumping machine ‘WLPm’ & valve ‘WLv1’ activated. Charge ballast tank #1 simultaneously.Oil hatch #2 & 3 will be unload as well.Finish.

General Formula of Buoyancy Force FB = (V) x (v) x (SPH2O)

v = (based on volume) of the object will be submerged in the water. v = 70% submerged in WATER

SPH2O = Specific gravity of water SPH2O = 64 pounds per cubic foot

Ship’s Volume = V = L x B x H Length = 5.5 ft Breadth = 2.0 ft Height = 2.5 ft

o V = 5.5 * 2.5 * 2 = 27.5 cubic feet

FB = 27.5 * 0.70 * 64 = 1232 pounds

XBEE Module Range Testing:

Keep away “Oil Tanker” from the fire.

To avoid fire “Fire Fighting System” should be near to the Oil Hatches and Engine Room.

To avoid from unbalancing of Ship, do not load Oil Hatches when the Ballast Tanks are empty.

Oil Hatches should be safe from any electrical shock.

Do not load Oil Hatches in adverse and rainy condition.

Do not drive the Ship while loading and unloading

SAFETY & PRECAUTIONS:

We started off the project with aim to design a Marine Ship ‘Oil Tanker’ but with the time and experience it was learnt that this was not at all an easy job, especially the structure of oil tanker and also to make it stable in water. But at last we completed our structure by the help from our teachers, our advisor and ours fellow relatives.

After the completion of first aim we started our work on electronics to make the driving section of ship wireless through XBEE Transceiver.

Then we started work on the Ballast Pumping Process to make it autonomous. By the bless of Allah we successfully achieved our all aim and objectives.

This project has been a successful as far as learning and practical implementation is concerned.
