BAE Systems Delivers Sea Power Tug to Seabulk Tankers

Built at BAE Systems’ Jacksonville, Florida, shipyard, the Sea Power will be used to enhance Seabulk Tankers’ Jones Act coastal operation, powering barges that safely transport chemical and petroleum products between U.S. ports. “We are proud to deliver Sea Power to our customer Seabulk Tankers and believe that the vessel will provide outstanding service for many years to come,” said David Thomas, vice president and general manager of BAE Systems Jacksonville Ship Repair. “Our collaborative relationship with Seabulk Tankers and the dedication of our highly-skilled shipbuilders made this ship delivery possible.” The Sea Power is a 141-foot-long, 12,000-brake horsepower, twin-screw tug that will work in tandem with a high-specification, 30,000 deadweight tonnage chemical tank barge as an articulated tug and barge unit. BAE Systems and Guido Perla & Associates, Inc., of Seattle, Washington, designed the vessel.
