Since the introduction of the first Australian roll-on/roll-off (RO/RO) vessel into service in 1959, there has been a continuing trend toward the adoption of this type of vessel. Such a trend has no doubt been stimulated by the dramatic increases in the cost of constructing and operating ships in a climate of continuing inflation. A brief history of numerous RO/RO ships is given, and various design features described, since in many cases they formed the background to the development of vessels only now entering service. Various design features of the RO/RO vessel are discussed with particular reference to the four gas turbine electric powered vessels in service and under construction for Union Steam Ship Company of New Zealand (USSCo). Details are also given, where applicable, of the two gas turbine powered steel carriers built for and by Broken Hill Proprietary Company Ltd. (BHP Co). An RO/RO bulk carrier which recently entered service is described, and, as an illustration of the continuing development in the field of RO/RO ships, several new projects are described in some detail.
