彭永桂

“凯桂”号轮是原龙穴造船于2008年建造并交付的华南最大油轮——30.8万吨的“新浦洋”轮的升级版，由广州广船国际股份有限公司、中国船舶及海洋工程设计研究院研发设计，并拥有自主知识产权。该船全船长333米，宽60米，甲板面积有4个足球场那么大，甲板面还设有直升机升降平台，主甲板面积与我国“辽宁”号航空母舰相当，但甲板长度比“辽宁”号航空母舰（辽宁号：长307米，宽70米）还要长，满载排水量是“辽宁”航空母舰的7倍，称得上是真正的“海上巨无霸”。

“凯桂”号轮的上层建筑高7层，船总高度70多米。型深30.5米，设计吃水20.5米，货舱深达27米，货舱仓容不少于360000立方米。该船航速为16.7节（31公里/小时），续航力约22000海里（4万多公里），相当于绕地球赤道一圈中途也不用再加油。

其自动化程度非常高，船上配备了目前最先进自动控制系统，可实现无人机舱、自动导航，开船只需27人就够了。

China's largest oil tanker set to sail

The largest supertanker ever designed and built by a Chinese shipyard， Kai Gui， is about to start its maiden voyage. Designed by Guangzhou Shipyard International Co.， Ltd. （GSI） and Marine Design & Research Institute of China and built by GSI， the vessel is by far the most advanced super-large oil tanker in China， with a high level of automation and reliability in performance， featuring independent technology in design and construction.

Kai Gui， measuring 333 meters in length and 60 meters in width， is the upgraded version of Xin Pu Yang， the former greatest tanker in the country.As tall as a 23-story building， over 70 meters in height， Kai Gui has a large deck equaling the total area of four football fields with helicopter landing platform， while its displacement is 320，000 tons， around seven times that of Liaoning， the Chinese aircraft carrier. The supertanker is equipped with an advanced automatic navigation system， which enables it to sail 24 hours a day without manual operation， while it only needs 27 staff members. With a fuel range of over 40，000 kilometers， it can circumnavigate the globe via the equator without refueling.
