TYÖVENE RECEIVES SIGNIFICANT ORDER FROM MARITIME OFFICE OF GDYNIA

Tuesday, 01 March 2022

 

The Finnish shipbuilder Työvene has secured an order for a Trailing Suction Hopper Dredger from the Maritime office in Gdynia, Poland. The order, worth approximately 20 MEUR, is a testimony to Työvene’s extensive experience in designing and building high-quality vessels for professional use.

The order is a result of a tender, where the design developed by Työvene and Dutch partners C-Job and Holland Marine Technologies, was found not to only fullfill but exceed all the client’s complex needs and requirements.

The project will have a significant effect on Työvene, directly providing full employment for shipyard’s own staff in Uusikaupunki and numerous sub-contractors. It will also create a significant number of job opportunities throughout the delivery chain, making the Southwestern part of Finland even more financially viable.

– I am extremely proud of this project. It is a tribute to the Finnish and Dutch shipbuilding tradition and shows the importance of striving for quality and truly understanding the customer’s needs. I hope this sends out a positive signal both to Finnish and international customers that to ensure state-of-the-art products, it is crucial to consider other factors than just the price point, says Juha Granqvist, CEO of Työvene.

THE ELECTRIC HYBRID FERRY ELOISE HAS ARRIVED IN GOTHENBURG

Tuesday, 10 May 2022

 

Gothenburg’s fourth passenger ferry from Työvene has arrived in the city – two months early. The new electric hybrid ferry is another step towards the goal of electrifying the public transportation in Gothenburg.

The electric hybrid ferry Eloise attracted a lot of attention when she was given her name in the autumn of 2021 – Gothenburgers submitted almost 4,600 name proposals. The ferry called at the port of Gothenburg on Friday 6 May – two months earlier than promised – when the boat was formally handed over from Työvene to Västtrafik.

Eloise is a commuter ferry for cyclists and pedestrians, with a capacity of 298 people and 80 bicycles. The boat is of the same model as its sibling Elvy, which Työvene delivered to Gothenburg in 2019, but with 25 percent better battery capacity. With the ferry, Västtrafik will be a little bit closer to its goal that the public transportation in Gothenburg will be electrified by 2030.

– We are very proud of the delivery. Both because we have received the confidence from Västtrafik to design and build Eloise, but mainly because we can contribute with this green public transport solution that reduces emissions, and at the same time is of great benefit to Gothenburgers, says Juha Granqvist, CEO of Työvene.

On June 10, Eloise will be named under pomp and circumstance, and will then start operating on line 286 from June 30. Until then, the crew trains with the ferry and prepares it for the start of traffic.

Facts about the electric ferries in Gothenburg
The ferries operate on line 286, Älvsnabbare, across the Göta River in Gothenburg. The first two, Älveli and Älvfrida, are diesel-electric and were put into operation in 2015. The third ferry, Elvy, is powered by an electric hybrid engine and put into operation in 2019. In June 2022, the second electric hybrid ferry Eloise will be inaugurated.

• The ferries are double-ended shuttle ferries designed for fast boarding and disembarkation for travelers both with and without a bicycle on short trips across the river.
• The passenger capacity is 298 people and there is room for 80 bicycles.
• At each end there are propeller units that are rotatable 360 degrees and have double counter-rotating propellers.
• Length 32.99 meters.
• Maximum width 8.71 meters
• Speed 11 knot.
