SAAM Towage Technical Manager Pablo C\u00e1ceres explained that \u201cthis tug allows safe and effective control of the maneuver in complex operations where it is necessary to assist ships at a speed of up to 10 knots, thanks to its installed capacity and electro-hydraulic control system of the forward winch.<\/p>\n

The Mataquito II measures 29 meters wide and 13 meters in beam, and is certified with the \u201cEscort\u201d and \u201cFire-Fighting 1\u201d class notation. It also has powerful engines that give it 82 tons of bollard pull and operates using a constant tension winch.<\/p>\n

The tug was named after the legendary Mataquito I, the first vessel ever built for the SAAM fleet, which operated from 1963 to 2013.<\/p>\n

The Mataquito II also features a data acquisition system to obtain and transmit machinery operating logs in real time, which can later be transformed into performance and energy efficiency indicators for ongoing monitoring.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
