Abstract

Abstract The paper presents the dynamic positioning system (DP), particularly its thruster allocation model, designed for ORP ‘Kormoran’, a Polish mine destroyer built for the Polish Navy in Remontowa Shipbuilding S.A. in Gdańsk. The ORP ‘Kormoran’ ship is the newest and best equipped minehunter ship in Europe. The main task of the new Polish mine destroyer is to search for, classify, identify and combat marine mines and improvised underwater explosives, recognize waterways, transport mines, deploy mines and provide remote control of self-propelled anti-mine platforms. The dynamic positioning control system of the ship presented in the article was constructed by Autocomp Management Ltd. from Szczecin, the only in Poland and one of the few producers of dynamic ship positioning systems in the world.
