requirements of the cruise industry

  • Accurate investigation of functional design of cruise

terminals and facilities

  • Preliminary audit phase, technical visits on cruise

terminals, confrontation of experiences rules and regulations and best practices

Cruise Industry Outlook

§ The cruise industry has experienced incredible growth over the past decade. MMM (More vessels, More Ports, More destinations) § Trend for mega - cruises (+5,000 pax) § There has been an increase in the number

  • f cruise shipping lines and in their fleets

(the number and size of the ships). § In this evolving market context Ports have developed an interest in advancing their cruise activities

Waterside Design Drivers

Aspects defined are: § Vessel characteristics (dimensions, tonnage, overhanging decks, etc.)

Cruise ships are frequently classified by size, associated with a particular commercial cruise line and not a more general industry-wide characterization

ROYAL CARIBBEAN GRT LOA (m) (ft) Draught (m) (ft) Beam (m) (ft) Sovereign class 73,192 268.32 m (880 ft) 7.85 m (25.75 ft) 32.20 m (106 ft) Vision class 78,340 279.00 m (915 ft) 7.90 m (25.92 ft) 32.20 m (106 ft) Radiance class 90,090 293.20 m (962 ft) 8.50 m (27.89 ft) 32.20 m (106 ft) Voyager class 137,276 311.12 m (1,020 ft) 9.10 m (29.86 ft) 38.60 m (127 ft) Freedom class 154,407 338.04 m (1,112 ft) 8.80 m (28.87 ft) 38.60 m (127 ft) Quantum class 168,666 347.17 m (1,139 ft) 8.82 m (28.94 ft) 41.40 m (136 ft) Oasis class 225,282 360.00 m (1,181 ft) 9.32 m (30.57 ft) 47.00 m (154 ft)

Example of cruise line: Royal Caribbean

Waterside Design Drivers

Aspects defined are: § Navigation and berthing (channels, turning basins, prevailing winds, tides, weather conditions, wave and current, berth length, etc.)

Overhanging decks – Oasis class Turning basins Berth length

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Waterside Design Drivers

Aspects defined are: § Mooring systems (configuration, bollard types, load capacities) § Fender systems (configuration, fender types, load capacities) § Structural factors (pier elevation, clearance under keel, apron vertical load capacities) § Protection from propeller erosion

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Apron Area

The guideline defines recommendations in the dimensions of the apron area for different types of terminals depending on:

  • stevedoring (line-handling, baggage movement, processing of wastes)
  • provisioning
  • emergencies

Luggage loading Vessel provisions

Operations:

SLIDE 15

Apron Area – Vessel doors

§ Vessel doors are another important element influencing the apron area

Provisioning door Luggage door Utility door

slide-16
SLIDE 16

Apron Area - Gangways

Covers also designing criterias for gangways: Design considerations: width of the pier, gangway geometric design, minimum walkway clearance, disable persons, minimize obstructions to the apron service area, stability during storm events, fully covered, construction materials, etc.

Fixed gangway Fixed telescoping gangway Mobile adjustable gangway Gangway system scheme

slide-17
SLIDE 17

Apron Area – Vessel utilities

Demand for utility services at cruise vessel: § Potable water § Communications § Bunkering § Sewage & biosolids § Garbage § Ballast water § Power – cold ironing § Potential future considerations – LNG

Shore power connection LNG barge

Cruise terminal building

Cruise terminals can be divided into four categories based on their use, longevity, adaptability and relationship within a context of adjacent development:

Temporary terminal Convertible building Purpose-built terminal Mixed-use terminal

Ground transportation area (GTA)

Following spaces are required: § Coaches Park § Taxi ranks § Kiss and ride § Parking

slide-23
SLIDE 23
  • 8. Ground transportation area – Mobility

Patterns

When calculating the spaces required in the GTA area, the following issues should be considered: § Type of cruise vessel operations § Port-city distance § Transport systems available § Other factors – local, regional and environmental considerations For a first approach, a mobility study will be necessary.

slide-24
SLIDE 24

Financial aspects

Financial aspects considered in the guideline are:

  • Business Plan
  • Costs in infrastructure, operating & maintenance
  • Source of revenues
slide-25
SLIDE 25

Security

§ SOLAs CHAPTER Xl-2 and the ISPS Code (IMO), December 2002 § European regulations (EU Regulation 725/2004, EU Directive 2005/65, EU Regulation 324/2008) in European ports and the American regulations for US ports. § Cruise lines requirements (CVSSA 2010) § Port facility assessment plan

slide-26
SLIDE 26

Conclusions

§ There is a clear trend that cruise tourism has evolved into cruises of larger capacity and with a more number of calls. § Cruise terminals must adapt to the new requirements: larger surfaces, better maritime infrastructures, more accesses, etc. § The importance of this guideline lies in that is the first technical guide for the design

  • f a cruise terminal and its adjacent spaces according to the new market

requirements. § Guidelines provided are: waterside design areas, apron area, cruise terminal building, ground transportation area, financial aspects and security. § Finally, it is important to note that each cruise port is different and has an unique

  • conditions. So this guideline has to be taken as a set of procedures to help to follow

in accordance with the own conditions of the Port to dimension the cruise terminal spaces.
