Today, global towage operator Svitzer announced an agreement with Robert Allan Ltd. and Sanmar Shipyards to build the TRAnsverse Tug, the next generation multipurpose tug.
The engines, each with an output of 2,000 kW, will power four new tugboats that Rio Maguari is building for the leading tugboat shipping company Svitzer.
Svitzer has announced the purchase and renaming of the Immingham-based tug Innovation, following the end of a chartering agreement for the vessel from Damen Marine Services.
Svitzer has recently begun operating the Svitzer SeaBadger Hull Cleaning ROV in Panama as part of the ambition to grow and offer additional services to Svitzer’s customers.
