Equipped with diesel-electric propulsion, advanced maneuverability systems, shore-power compatibility, noise insulation and energy-saving cargo handling, the Tamarack is designed to maximize operational efficiency while minimizing emissions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBringing MV <em>Tamarack<\/em> to the Great Lakes has been a true team effort,\u201d said Kai Grotterud, managing director of Eureka Shipping. \u201cThis highly efficient vessel is the result of close collaboration with Amrize, smart design, and a shared vision for advanced shipping. We\u2019re proud to set a new standard for operational performance in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The vessel is equipped with diesel-electric propulsion, featuring four generator sets, two 360-degree rudder propellers, and a powerful bow thruster for optimal maneuverability. It also includes four dedicated cement cargo holds with a total capacity of 10,700\u202fcubic meter supported by high-efficiency loading and discharging systems.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Tamarack<\/em>\u2019s design includes fuel-efficient engines capable of running on HVO biofuel and two rudder propellers that provide full-circle thrust, improving docking and harbor maneuvers. The vessel is outfitted with LED lighting and state-of-the-art cargo handling systems that lower overall energy consumption. To reduce operational noise, the ship has been fitted with extensive noise insulation and silencers. Additionally, the vessel is prepared for shore power connectivity, enabling zero-emission operations in ports as infrastructure evolves.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/news\/next-gen-cement-carrier-tamarack-makes-toronto-debut\/\">Next-gen cement carrier Tamarack makes Toronto debut<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/\">Marine Log<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><br \/>\n    Nick Blenkey<br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n<BR><\/BR><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinelog.com\/news\/next-gen-cement-carrier-tamarack-makes-toronto-debut\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=next-gen-cement-carrier-tamarack-makes-toronto-debut\">Go to marinelog<\/a><br \/>\n \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Next-gen cement carrier Tamarack makes Toronto debut Building materials giant Amrize (NYSE: AMRZ) today welcomed the arrival in Toronto of the M\/V Tamarack, a next-generation self-discharging cement carrier with a capacity of over 10,000 cubic meters of cement.
