Under the contract, the joint venture will deepen the port’s fairway and harbor basin, allowing it to accommodate vessels with a draft of up to 14.7 meters and a cargo capacity of up to 85,000 tons.
The vessel is designed for regional container routes, smaller port operations, and short-sea logistics where reliability, compact dimensions, and fast turnaround times are essential.
Steerprop has been chosen to provide a comprehensive Polar Class 4 (PC 4) propulsion package for the Canadian Coast Guard's Multi-Purpose Vessels (MPVs) renewal program.
