SEA FORE MOJ

1 -  “MEGA MOTTI”
The “Mega Motti” is a Push Barge with good seagoing behaviour. The Diesel
electric vessel has four main engines and various support auxiliaries. The
combination of its Dual Propeller construction contributes to its reliability and
redundancy with a far less chance of breakdowns. The vessels Diesel engines
are up to standards with modern environmental regulations and are designed
for SECA consumption norms. With her high construction and specially Off-
Shore designed interlock barge, the “Mega Motti” makes for quite an
impressive combination.

The Loading capacities of the Barge reach well over 8,000 tons. The Barge is
130,10 m long and 23,90 m wide. Due to the size, form and especially the
width, the barge is ideal for transporting special off-shore cargoes with an
impressive stability. ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems has calculated the cargo
stress points in relation to the hydrodynamic factors of the North and Baltic
seas with a swell height of 2m.
The easily accessible cargo hold is ideal for large components and assemblies
with a width of 21,20 m and a length of 96,80 m. Contrary to a normal barge,
the “Motti” has 9,75 m high walls (height is variable by removing the upperbulkheads).
The construction offers optimal loading possibilities while
providing ideal protection from the sea. The tank top can hold 20tons/ m².
.
The Barge also has a separate engine room which allows it to operate
independently from the tugboat. The Anker and Mooring wenches, Hydraulic
pumps and ballast pumps are powered by a generator. The steering of the
barge is done locally by the tug vessel. Currently the barge is under German
Flag.
