We have received additional information regarding this tug as follows. The Wato has been purchased by Pacific Towing PNG Limited – not Pacific Tug of Brisbane, the tug is on passage to PNG via Brisbane and Townsville towing the barge TOLL 2501 for Smithbridge, her ETA Port Moresby in the 23rd February, where she will partner with Werra which was purchased at the same time as Wato last year, Wato was retained at Newcastle on bareboat charter back to Svitzer through to January 27th. I know you can only print what you are sent, but the reporter at Newcastle got this wrong, also Wato was built in 1982 the tug is 32yrs old and not 36yrs, so his mathematics not much better than his research. Thanks to John Whitfield General Manager Pacific Towing PNG Ltd. PORT OF ZEEBRUGGE PERFORMS FIRST BUNKERING OF LNG DRIVEN TUGBOAT The world’s first LNG driven tugboat, the M/T Borgoy arrived in the port of Zeebrugge for a bunkering operation. The ‘truck to ship’ bunkering operation was the first to be performed in the Flemish coastal port. The tug M/T Borgoy is the first tugboat in the world driven by liquid natural gas, LNG. The maritime sector is confronted with strict emission regulations, which results in an interest for LNG as a maritime fuel. This tug boat emits nearly 30 percent less CO2 and up to 90 percent less NOx and fine dust than conventionally-powered tugs. M/T Borgoy is the first of two identical tug boats ordered by the Norwegian BUBE (Buksér og Berging AS). The tug has left the 3/25 15TH VOLUME, NO. 12 DATED 23 FEBRUARY 2014 Sanmar shipyard in Turkey and has set sail for Karsto in Norway to begin her long term operational contract for Statoil. To fuel up on LNG for her maiden trip, the ship makes halt in the port of Zeebrugge. The LNG fuelling operation was executed ‘Truck to Ship’. An LNG-filled trailer is then positioned alongside the quay and is connected with the ships fuel tank. For the port of Zeebrugge, this is an absolute premier. This first TTS bunkering operation in Zeebrugge is a joint effort. It was carefully planned and prepared with Fluxys Belgium, who have 27 years of LNG-experience, -expertise and –knowhow to offer. The bunkering of the tug was assigned to LNGEurope. Hoppe Maritime Group acts as BUBE’s agent. Joachim Coens, CEO Port of Zeebrugge: “This bunkering operation is of the greatest importance to the port of Zeebrugge. Firstly, we can be proud that BUBE has chosen Zeebrugge to perform this operation. Secondly, it is a confirmation of the time and effort we’ve invested in becoming a first mover in LNG bunkering. We’ve started up several projects with different parties which are all in very different stages of development. To see this project performed successfully is very gratifying.” Koos Blaazer , LNGEurope b.v.: “This successful bunkering operation confirms the belief of LNGEurope that in the future, these safe bunkering operations will become routine for a steadily growing fleet of LNG fuelled ships, not only in Zeebrugge.” Stefaan Hoppe, Hoppe Maritime Group: “We are proud to be appointed by BUBE and to be part of the first LNG truck-to-ship bunkering in the port of Zeebrugge. In the future, we hope to assist in new developments in LNG such as small scale LNG and LNG bunkering.” (Source: Port of Zeebrugge) INTERNATIONAL TUG & OSV ANNUAL REVIEW 2013 International Tug & OSV has once again published its Annual Review.

    1/11 Home Parliamentary Business Committees Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade Inquiry into Strengthening Australia’s Relationships with Countries in the Pacific region March 2020 Submission by Neil Baird PhD Proposal for a Pacific Safe Ferry Project: Similar to the Pacific Patrol Boat Scheme Contact: Dr Neil Baird Email: Phone: 2/11 Proposal for a Pacific Safe Ferry Project THE PROPONENT: Neil Baird is a semi-retired publisher of international maritime trade magazines, books and a website and organiser of maritime trade exhibitions globally (See: www.bairdmaritime.com). From 2015 to 2017 he completed a PhD at the Australian National Centre for Ocean Research and Security at the University of Wollongong. The title of his thesis was “Fatal Ferry Accidents, Their Causes and Prevention”. This work arose from a more than thirty-year study of passenger vessel accidents and extensive published writing on that subject of which he is widely known as one of the world’s leading experts.. Arising from his doctoral research, Dr Baird has completed several projects with INTERFERRY (www.interferry.org) , the international trade association of ferry owners, mainly through its associated FerrySafe project. He has presented to and worked with the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and other international bodies such as the China Maritime Safety Administration. At a Pacific Islands Forum/IMO conference in Port Moresby in April 2018 he developed the Pacific Safe Ferry Project idea. It was discussed there with all delegates, who unanimously liked the idea. The New Zealand delegates took the idea back to their government, which has already acted on it, see article on Te Kaniva attached.
