A sophisticated 50,000-barrel bitumen barge to travel the Great Lakes for Andrie

摘要

United States-based Jeffboat has recently delivered the tank barge 'Endeavour' to its US owner, Andrie.rnThe 50,000-gross-barrel capacity barge is fitted with JAK articulation socket plates, allowing it to be pushed from the stern by the dedicated tug 'Karen Andrie'. While this means there are no engines for propulsion on board the 'Endeavour', she is fitted out for the specialised carrying of bitumen with Cummins QSM19 pump engines and Cummins GSM11-DM generators rated 250kW.
