(JACKSONVILLE, Fla.; Oct. 1, 2008) Crowley Maritime Corporation's Vessel Management Services subsidiary has awarded construction contracts to Gunderson Marine of Portland, Oregon for - in addition to two already under construction - eight Heavy Lift Series 400-foot by 105-foot-wide deck barges.
Once completed, these barges will handle project work for the offshore energy industry in the Gulf of Mexico and elsewhere and will expand Crowley's fleet of this type barge to as many as 13 by 2012. Gunderson is the same company that built the first three barges in the series - the Marty J, 455-2 and 455-3 (now the Julie B) - all of which were delivered last year. |
