OSI Contracted by WEST SEA – VIANA SHIPYARD to Deliver INTS for Portuguese Navy OPV Program

OSI to deliver Integrated Navigation and Tactical System bridge for the NPO 3S / OPV Batch 3

Fully compliant IMO MSC252(83) Integrated Navigation System solution enabling paperless navigation

Powered by OSI’s ECPINS 7 WECDIS software, developed to be fully compliant with the latest NATO STANAG 4564 Edition 3 standard

Includes ECPINS Software module capabilities, including GNSS Denied Operations and Aircraft Operations/SHOL.

Portugal is one of OSI’s oldest Partners and expert ECPINS users, with OSI’s WECDIS software deployed throughout the Navy

February 3, 2025 – OSI Maritime Systems (OSI) is pleased to announce the contract for a complete Integrated Navigation and Tactical System bridge for the Portuguese Navy’s new NPO3S/OPV Batch 3. The six warships, to be built by West Sea – Viana Shipyard in Viana do Castelo, Portugal, will considerably enhance the Portuguese Navy’s capabilities in maritime patrol, surveillance, fisheries protection, search-and-rescue, disaster relief, environmental protection, and the prevention of illicit activities such as drug trafficking and illegal immigration.

OSI’s ECPINS software is more than just a fully compliant WECDIS. Among the additional ECPINS capabilities contracted are the provision of the GNSS Denied capability and the Ship Helicopter Operating Limits (SHOL) modules. The GNSS denied capability, developed originally for submarine navigators operating dived without GPS, is fast becoming essential for surface navigators. Operating in challenging environments, it enables the accurate determination of own ship position in circumstances where a position fix derived from a global navigation satellite system is not available or unreliable due to spoofing, jamming, signal obstruction, or a lack of satellites.

Quem viver verá

Mas fico lisonjeado com tanto pensamento na minha pessoa

Isso merece música

O que se aproveita é a música.

Eu pessoalmente acho um desperdício de dinheiro a modernização das Fragatas da Classe Vasco da Gama. Qualquer modernização é para ser a meio do tempo de vida útil do meio em questão, não no final.

SCHOTTEL to propel Portuguese Navy’s Multi-Purpose Support Ship

SCHOTTEL has been awarded a significant contract to supply two EcoPeller SRE 560 and one TransverseThruster STT 3 FP for a Multi-Purpose Support Ship (MPSS) for the Portuguese Navy. The innovative new ship design for modern defense and security purposes has been developed by Dutch Damen Shipyards Group based on a new concept and specific requirements of the Portuguese Navy.






CHOTTEL is to equip a Multi-Purpose Support Ship (MPSS) for the Portuguese Navy with two EcoPeller SRE 560 and one TransverseThruster STT 3 FP.

The state-of-the-art vessel, to be named “NRP Dom João II”, will be capable of deploying unmanned drones and helicopters. In addition to maritime safety and naval support operations, its primary tasks will include oceanic research, search and rescue and emergency relief.

SCHOTTEL propulsion package
For the main propulsion, SCHOTTEL will deliver two electrically powered EcoPeller type SRE 560 azimuth thrusters with an input power of 2,600 kW each. The L-Drive variant (“embedded L-Drive”) significantly reduces the installation height of the thrusters. By eliminating the upper gearbox, mechanical losses are further reduced. To enhance manoeuvrability and DP capabilities, the new build will be equipped with a SCHOTTEL TransverseThruster type STT 3 FP (800 kW). With this thruster configuration, the 107-metre long and 20-metre wide ship will reach a free sailing speed of 15.5 knots. In addition, the main propulsion system has been particularly designed and tested for low underwater noise emissions to allow the vessel to meet DNV ‘Silent A’ class noise requirements up to a light survey speed of 10 knots.

Highly efficient, sustainable, versatile
Thanks to the particularly effective combination of powerful propeller thrust and lateral force, the SCHOTTEL EcoPeller fulfils all the requirements of a modern high-performance propulsion unit. The hydrodynamically optimized design allows the EcoPeller to produce maximum steering forces and enables top values in terms of overall efficiency and course-keeping ability.

LeaCon seal monitoring system
The two SRE and the STT will be equipped with SCHOTTEL LeaCon, a seal monitoring system certified by DNV. It offers safe and reliable protection against seawater contamination caused by lubrication oil. Separate seals to the seawater and to the gearbox side ensure that both incoming seawater and escaping gear oil are collected in an intermediate chamber. LeaCon is also used to monitor the condition of the seals, so operational wear can be detected at an early stage and unscheduled maintenance avoided. SCHOTTEL propulsion units equipped with the LeaCon system comply with stringent environmental requirements.

Oceanic research and naval support
For its role in oceanic research and monitoring operations, the vessel will be equipped with laboratories and accommodation for scientific staff. Additionally, to provide naval support, the ship will feature a stern ramp for UUVs (Unmanned Underwater Vehicles) and USVs (Unmanned Surface Vehicles) as well as a 94x11-metre flight deck and hangars for UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles). It is currently being built by Damen Shipyards Group in Galați, Romania, and is scheduled for delivery in 2026.

Não sejas assim, pelo menos os Iowa tiveram a função de bombardeamento à zona costeira na guerra do Golfo e levavam misseis que nunca mais acabava!

Pois é

Tomara nós ter a modernização dos Iowa
