LIVERPOOL NOTES - 27 September 2013 &  forth trojan

27/9/2013

A full day in Liverpool yesterday resutled in three new vessels all seen together in the main basin at Seaforth. These consisted of the General Cargo Ships Fraserborg (IMO 9419319, GT 8911, 2011) and Rene A (IMO 9508653, GT 3556, 2011) together with Panama registered Bulk Carrier Jin Zhou Hai (IMO 9546083, GT 32957, 2009). Both Jin Zhou Hai and Rene A are still in port but Fraserborg has since left for Tilbury.

I also saw Salvage Vessel Forth Trojan at a distance where she appears to be working with the recently arrived Dutch dredgers and other vessels on the new dock wall container facility. 

The above picture shows her leaving Pierhead, Liverpool on 3 September 2013.

She has a length of 25.37m, 10.2m beam and maximum draft of 2.25m. Gross Tonnage is 197T. There is accommodation on board with 8 berths.

Propulsion is via two 578kW engines giving a speed of 9.8 knots and bollard pull of 23.5T

She is owned by Briggs Marine and Environmental Services who are based in Burntisland in Fife, Scotland. The company supplies services across a range of industries working offshore in the marine sector ranging from vessel charter to marine civil engineering projects to renewable energy, emergency response and salvage.

    My interest in ships and the sea started back in 2006 when I worked for a couple of years  on the banks of the River Mersey. I have since been on a couple of cruises around the Med and in the Far East and have started to take more interest in researching and photographing some of the ships and other vessels seen on my travels.
