洋上石油プラント「FPSO」とは 「FPSO」とは浮体式原油・ガス生産貯蔵積み出し設備（Floating Production Storage and Offloading Vessel）の略称。海底から原油や天然ガスをくみ上げ、貯蔵し、輸送タンカーへ積み出す船舶型の設備のことを言います。FPSOを利用することで陸地までのパイプライン敷設が不要になるほか、深海域にも対応できるなどさまざまなメリットがあり、海洋石油生産の場で活躍します。 FPSOは大型で高額のため、その多くが中古タンカーを改造して作られます。日立造船によって2001年に建造された、全長333m、幅60mもの大きさをもつ「Ariake」もその一つ。原油タンカーとして活躍後、最大130万バレルの原油を貯蔵し、日量9万バレルの原油を処理する洋上石油プラントへと生まれ変わりました。   FPSOの動力源

100年以上にわたり、世界の農業を支えてきたカミンズ   2050年には90億人を超えると言われている世界の人口。それに伴い、食料の需要が急速に拡大することが予想されています。農業の発展なしにはこの需要に対応することはできません。 カミンズは、農機用エンジンの開発を通じて、100年以上にわたり農業の技術革新に取り組んできました。当社の前身であるカミンズエンジン社を設立後、創業者のクレシー・カミンズが開発した最初の製品は、農業用ポンプに使われる短気筒エンジンでした（以下写真）。 この短気筒エンジン「HVID」は19世紀にルドルフ・ディーゼル氏が開発した技術を応用して開発されたもので、カミンズエンジン社でライセンス生産されました。 続く1929年、カミンズは、パッカード社のリムジンに自社製のU型エンジンを搭載することで、農業から自動車分野へと事業領域を拡大し

The reasons motivating a retrofit vary; however, in the case of Tivua, a 1982 Island Gypsy Europa MK1 retrofit, the impetus for change began in the engine room. “Before, the old engine oozed oil out of every corner,” said Rich Fricke, Tivua’s owner. “And we were so slow, running 7 - 7.5 knots and 6’s when windy.
