Dragas
A dredger is a vessel used
to excavate material below the level of
water, and raise the extracted material to the
surface. These operations can be

docks or reservoirs.

Chemicals
They are similar to the previous family,
but they are dedicated to transportation of
chemical products (phenol, ammonia,
gasoline and other derivatives, etc.).
The size is rather small
(5,000 or 10,000 RPM) although they can
reach 50,000 TPM.
In its many tanks (up to 40 or
more) can load different types
of the product and are classified according to the
type of aggression or risk of his
load, in three classes (Type 1, 2, or 3). The
the trend is that they are built for
three o'clock.
They are ships of a high cost due to
the construction requirements such as the
double hull, steel tanks
stainless, or sophisticated systems of
painting.
