The Stena V-MAX is based on innovation and perf ormance
according to the Stena MAX concept the worlds leading
design in safet y, fl exibili t y and economy.Innovation together w ith the best t echnology available
ensures safe transportation of oil across the oceans.
Performance reduces costs for our customers. Maximum
safety at a minimum t otal cost!
Innovat ion & Perf ormance
Doubled pro -active safet y
All navigation f unctions are centrally located o n t he bridge. From t he
conni ng posit ion , you have a 360o view. The Integrated Bridge Control
System gives imm ediat e access to relevant data and cont rol s.
The layout enables co-pilot operation, which increases safety in narrow
waters.
All t he systems fo r propu lsion and manoeuvering engines, shaf t s,
generat ors, steeri ng g ear, rudders, prop ellers and cont rol systems
are doubled and function independently. The engines are separated by a
fi reproof and water tigh t bulkhead.
The Stena V-M AX is cert ifi ed to DNV RPS (Redundant Propulsion
Separate) and i s th e fi rst large tanker to satisfy t hese requir ement s.
Econo my o f Scale
The double hull of the Stena V-MA X has a low m oulded dept h of 25.6
met res around 5 met res less th an that of a new convent ional VLCC.
Cargo i nt ake at 16.76 metres (55 feet) i s 75% h igher t han a standard
Suezmax and 20% higher than a standard VLCC.
The V-MAX t hus off ers chart erers a lower transport ation cost per
landed barrel.

Unique manoeuvrabi li t y
Double propellers and do uble rudd ers enable the
Stena V-MAX t o tu rn f aster and mo re swif tly t han a
conventional tanker half her size.
The turning circle, as illustrated, is performed at 15
knot s wit h maximal rudd er angle. The enhanced
manoeuvrabilit y of th e Stena V-MA X and it s shallow
draf t enable the vessel to ent er fair ways to safel y
transport large quantit ies of oil in confi ned w aters.
The Stena V-MA X is
able to sail faster than
conventional new
VLCCs. Here, The StenaVision is passing the
Cape of Good Hope en
rout e to t he US.
The Stena V-MAX buil t f or at
least 25 years of active trading
is thoroughly protected against
corrosion for extended fat igue
life. The ballast, cargo, fuel oil and
contaminated water have ballasttanks or void space between their
boundaries and t he hull.
As an extra precauti on, in t he
event of grounding, the hopper
tanks are larger t han on a
convent ional VLCC in o rder to
reduce the risk of an oil spill.

OPTIMISED ECONOMY OF SCALE. The larger the ship, the greater the economy of scale
a generally accepted truth. But there is a point where restrictions on physical dimensions and
logistics no longer allow the shipbuilder to continue increasing all the external dimensions.
Moreover, construction becomes uneconomical.
What Stena has now developed in close cooperation with classification societies and SSPA
Sweden AB in Gteborg is a ship design where relatively small changes increase cargo intake by
20-40% compared with conventional VLCCs and by 70-100% compared with Suezmax tankers.
This is achieved at a very reasonable addit ional cost . The result is ext remely compet it ive t rans-
por t economy to por t s wi th draf t rest rictions wi th potential savings of 10-20% per barrel.
The reason for this is that costly and time-consuming lightering operations at sea and transfers
in intermediate ports are completely or partly avoided as a result of the V-MAXs larger cargo
capacit y.
BUILT WITH THE CUSTOMER IN FOCUS. OPTIMISED FOR CARGO INTAKE, DRAFT AND SPEED.
30% higher loading capacit y on a limit ed draft compared wit h conventional new VLCCs
1-2 knots higher speed t han conventional new VLCCs
The same bunker consumpt ion at t he same speed as competi tors
Three solid facts which have a direct and immediate impact on our customers log ist ics cost s
and t he vessels earning capacit y.
Wit h a draf t like a Suezmax, a length like a VLCC and reduced draf t , she does not dif fer drast ically
f rom convent ional new tankers. Por ts that have commonly been limi ted to Suezmax tonnage
are now open t o t he economy of VLCC t ranspor tation t hrough t he Stena V-MAX. VLCC economy
wi th Suezmax flexibilit y.
The STENA V-MAX is our answer!
Oil should always travel first class!
