Svitzer adds unit on the Humber


Named after a crew member’s daughter, a new unit, the "Svitzer Eleanor", will reinforce the company’s operations in Northern England, becoming the eighth Svitzer tug servicing the Humber. The purchase and rebranding of the Immingham-based tug "Innovation" marked the end of a chartering agreement with Damen Marine Services.

 

After the acquisition, the three-year-old vessel was renamed "Svitzer Eleanor". The unit will follow the naming theme of fellow tugs in service in Immingham, including "Svitzer Josephine", "Svitzer Kathleen" and "Svitzer Laura". The vessel, which is completely insulated and accommodates four people, carries a sound absorbing ceiling in the wheelhouse and includes floating floors. (sh)
