This means more carrying capacity for cargo and more revenue producing space. Due to its smaller space requirements, the turbine leaves more lati- tude in hull design. The turbine also requires less care and attention, fewer supplies and less expense for overhauling. There are no reciprocating rubbing surfaces, an practically no adjustments to be made by the operating staff. No piston rod and valve stem packings and no cylinder oil are used.
