Raytheon Anschütz Singapore has been awarded a contract about the supply of[ds_preview] an Integrated Bridge and Navigation System to a new Platform Supply Vessel (PSV) built at Nam Cheong Dockyard, Malaysia. The delivery will take place at the end of 2012. The 79 m long, DNV classed vessel will be equipped with an integrated bridge system. Earlier in 2011, Raytheon Anschütz has already delivered Integrated Bridge Systems to new AHTS and Offshore Support Vessels at Malaysian shipyards. The scope of supply for the PSV covers four navigation workstations for the front bridge (radar, chart radar, ECDIS, conning). The ECDIS is enhanced with a radar video overlay. For aft bridge operations a fully operational conning workstation will be delivered. For the steering system, the autopilot NP2035 is supplied, which forms together with ECDIS an approved track control system. A package of navigation sensors including a redundant Standard 22 gyro compass system is also delivered. It provides all relevant information through the Ethernet navigation network to the bridge workstations. The scope is completed by fully equipped radio communication systems for GMDSS sea area A3.
