| 摘要： | For years, said Neal Langdon, executive vice president of Arcosa Marine Products Inc., proponents of container-on-barge (COB) have had difficulty persuading stakeholders to invest in sho-reside COB assets because they were "selling a concept." No more. Arcosa is making a big bet on the future of container-on-barge with the rollout of two purpose-built barges specifically designed and built to handle containers. Langdon discussed the barges May 25 at the Inland Marine Expo as part of a panel discussion on "Enhancing Global Connectivity Through Infrastructure, Investment and Innovation." Langdon said the first barge was completed three weeks earlier, and the second was due to be completed in the next few days. Arcosa Marine Products is a leading manufacturer of dry-cargo barges, including deck and hopper barges, that are used to transport a variety of products on the U.S. inland waterways, including grain, coal and aggregates. Arcosa Marine Products also manufactures tank barges that carry petroleum, fertilizer, ethanol, chemicals and other liquid cargoes. It is also the largest U.S. manufacturer of fiberglass hopper barge covers used primarily on grain barges. |
