Berg Propulsion has been selected to provide state-of-the-art control and propulsion technology for what will be one of the largest hybrid tugs ever delivered, after owner Buksér og Berging AS (BuBe) agreed specifications with Türkiye's Uzmar Shipyard for its latest newbuild.
The delivered tugboats, all designed by the Canadian Naval Architect Robert Allan, are RAstar 2800 models specifically selected by Svitzer for their efficiency in harbor operations.
Med Marine has announced the successful launch of MED-A2575 RAmparts 2500-W Series Harbour Tug at its group-owned Ereğli Shipyard on October 30th, 2023.
The vessel will continue to be operated by Shin-Nihon Kaiyosha to verify its decarbonization effect and operational safety as the world's first ammonia-fueled vessel.
