This impressive 150’x45’x8’ Crane-Spud barge, designed for dredging operations with an excavator/material handler, will be utilized in the Upper Mississippi River region.
Weighing approximately 260 tons, the barge is equipped with three 24-inch square by 50-foot spuds. These spuds are fitted with cable sheaves and will be raised using customer-supplied hydraulic winches mounted on the deck.
The stainless-steel hydraulic piping for the winch has been pressure-tested and routed internally to ensure a clear deck space.
Additionally, there is a tool-storage room that features a hinged door, stairs, aluminum flooring, space heaters, and lighting. This project was completed in approximately 24 weeks.
