Netherlands-based Multraship Towage and Salvage christened its newest ASD tug in a ceremony in Terneuzen on Thursday, May 30.
Multratug 35 is the first in a series of two tugs ordered by Multraship in June 2023 to perform deep-sea towage and salvage.
The newbuild has a length of 32 metres and IMO Tier III engines fitted with NOx reduction systems. The propulsion can deliver a bollard pull of 88 tonnes.
The tug is also outfitted for firefighting, anchor handling, and other offshore operations. The crew accommodation spaces have been enhanced with additional insulation and are rubberised to provide greater comfort.
The deck equipment includes a knuckle boom crane with an SWL of fine tonnes mounted aft of the wheelhouse.
