Crowley Fuels LLC took delivery in April of a new Alaska-class 100,000-bbl. articulated tug-barge (ATB) unit, which is being used to transport multiple clean petroleum products to the Alaska market. The ATB was built by Bollinger Shipyards at its Amelia, La., facility and is the first in Crowley's fleet to be dedicated to the Alaska market. Crowley is operating the 483' ATB for Alaska-based Petro Star Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Arctic Slope Regional Corp. (ASRC) under a long-term charter. Crowley Fuels is the Alaska-based petroleum transportation, distribution and sales unit of Crowley Maritime Corp. The ATB unit consists of the twin Z-drive, 7,000-hp, 128'×85'×l9' tug Aveo-gan paired with the 400'×85', 100,000-bbl. ocean barge Oliver Leavitt. |
