Ballast Technologies provide fixed ballast installations. We often used fixed ballast to correct stability problems with vessels. Permanent ballast should be easy to install with minimum labor. Of course, it must have significant weight. Ideally, we also prefer to customize the density of the ballast and ensure we completely fill a compartment. The following information comes from the company website. Perma Ballast® is high density fixed ballast used throughout the world for Ships, Boats, Floating and Gravity Based Production Platforms, Bridges and Counterweights Perma Ballast® is lead-free, non-toxic, non-corrosive, chemically inert, and environmentally safe, often incorporating iron ore such as magnetite or QCM. Perma Ballast® will not cause gases or vapors to be generated, even after many years of service. Perma Ballast® is thoroughly tested in BTI’s laboratories to ensure proper density, uniformity and stability. BTI also performs continuous onsite quality controlduring installation. Perma Ballast® is avalable in a wide range of installed densities, from 130 lbs/ft3 – 325 lbs/ft3 (2.1 – 5.2 metric tons/m3). Perma Ballast® is removable and reusable. Perma Ballast® is recognized and accepted by certifying and regulatory agencies around the world, including ABS, Bureau Veritas, U.S. DOT, U.S. Coast Guard, Lloyd’s Register, Germanischer Lloyd, and Det Norske Veritas. Perma Ballast® specialists make a site visit to inspect the vessel and installation location and then draft customized operating and safety plan. Perma Ballast® is installed by BTI’s experienced personnel using state-of-the-art equipment for safe, rapid and efficient mobilization, installation and demobilization. To minimize inconvenience to our customers, BTI pumps from dockside and offers the option of continuous installation, 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Perma Ballast® is engineered to ensure even distribution throughout all available tank space. Perma Ballast® consolidates as it is installed. The result is non-shifting fixed ballast that remains removable and reusable. Sometimes, we need to add ballast to an existing ship, usually to maintain ship stability. But the logistics of putting a lot of weight into unused sections of a ship can be fairly daunting. And then the weight must be safely secured. Ballast-crete offers a labor-saving alternative to traditional ingot ballast. Ballast-Crete® is a pre-blended combination of water and inorganic, non-toxic, granular and ground fines that can be produced in density ranges of 130 lb. (S.G. 2.08) to 325 lb. (S.G. 5.21) per cubic foot, or higher. During installation, its flowability and water retentiveness compares to a ready-mix mortar although it does not contain portland cement. After installation, Ballast-Crete® firms to a semi-solid mass. Ballast-Crete® is designed to meet U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Navy, American Bureau of Shipping and Det Norske Veritas & Bureau Veritas specifications. Due to its thixotropic nature, Ballast-Crete® can be removed in discrete quantities for the repair or modification of your ship. Further details can be found on the company website.

Beacon Finland makes the JAK coupling system for articulated tug barges (ATB). The coupler allows pitch degree of freedom and can connect at different draft levels between barge and tug. From company website: The JAK® ATB Coupling System of Beacon Finland is invented and developed especially for use on Articulated Tug Barge (ATB) systems. It is a modern innovation with significant advantages with regard to space, weight and cost. The original invention was made in 1991. Since then, Beacon Finland has continued to develop it into a very competitive product for the ATB market. The basic idea of the invention was to improve the existing connection devices between the tug and the barge in the ATB-system with the aim of a lightweight, safe, simple and cost effective coupling. The JAK®-ATB Coupling System solved the conventional problems and fulfilled the basic targets more than well. The main product is the JAK coupling. From company website: The JAK®-ATB Coupling System is a pneumatically actuated electrically controlled articulated tug-barge connecting system. The coupling action is controlled from a control panel on the vessel’s bridge or/and from the local control panel in the coupler unit compartment. The efficiency and the reasonable cost of the coupling device are based on its simple construction. There are also several other benefits of this system, e.g.: You can get more information on the company website: http://www.beaconfinland.com/jak-coupling/ You can find local contact information on the company website: http://www.beaconfinland.com/contacts/ Beacon Finland Ltd Oy Contact: Mr. Timo Rintala Phone: +358 2 8387 9500 Ian-Conrad Bergan provides tank gauging systems for tank barges and ocean going tankers. They specialize in applications for petroleum cargo and other hazardous or noxious products. All the situations that make tank gauging difficult or deadly: Ian-Conrad Bergan may have a solution. From company website: We are the original pioneer in tank gauging having developed the first ultra reliable liquid level overfill protection system trademarked as the Guard Level� system. Our experience covers all types of oil/chemical/products including high temperature applications such as asphalt carriers. All of our systems are certified as Intrinsically Safe and are approved by the major classification societies. The systems we sell ensure safe operation on ships and barges and are a vital part in protecting the environment. Our philosophy is to provide simple and reliable equipment that lasts for the life of the vessel. The Cargo Management System (CMS) in tandem with our proprietary CargoRadar� and Guard Level� range of sensors, provides for the best accurate level, ullage and volume measurement and will allow you to load and transport cargo in a safe and cost effective way. We have recently introduced several new products. The Fuel Management System (FMS) is unique in the industry and gives unprecedented accuracy. It is a valuable tool to ship/tug crews during bunkering and can usher in improved fuel efficiencies. Due to its networked architecture, fleet-wide fuel monitoring in a cost effective way is made possible. Our new line of manual valve control registered as Guard Valve� offers valuable benefits on vessels with local valve control. Our 35 year track-record is unrivaled and long term support is assured. We stand by you with great service; before, during and long after the sale. It is a privilege to have you as our customer. There are an extensive array of products on the company website. This just lists the major tank gauging systems they offer.

This also includes electric drives. (Basically, all the components you need for an industrial towing tank.) They can supply a wide range of products related to towing tanks. Typical wave generator solutions that can be developed by Bosch Rexroth are: The systems are fatigue rated and designed with low noise production, a long lifespan and high serviceability (low maintenance and ease of access) in mind. To ensure high motion accuracy the systems encompass: The height of the waves that can be generated is limited by water depth, wave steepness, overtopping and maximum segment stroke and velocity.

Our continuous investment in Research and Development helps us to provide innovative, cost effective mooring solutions that support our customers with their requirements. This is the only drag embedment anchor capable of accepting directional changes of loading from all headings. After installation, the Bruce Omni-Directional Dennla can embed in the rearward direction as well as the forward direction by veering into alignment with the direction of loading. Developed in 1986, the Bruce FFTS Mk4 anchor is still one of the only drag embedment anchors available on the market that completely satisfies the HHP anchor rules regarding self righting as set out by DNV GL. With increased holding capacity and the cranked shank design, the Bruce FFTS PM is the perfect anchor for permanent mooring requirements and hard bottom conditions. The Bruce FFTS GP has a further increased fluke area from that of the Bruce FFTS PM, and the shank straightened to enable mass to be redistributed to the fluke for higher holding capacity and a lower rearwards recovery load.Ballast Technologies Inc
