Escort tug "Alaryam"
The "Alaryam" is the latest delivery of the widely acclaimed RAstar Class true escort tug designs from Robert Allan Ltd., Naval Architects of Vancouver, BC.
The 35.8 m long and 13.5 m wide RAstar 3600 Class vessel was designed to perform a wide range of tasks, including ship-handling, LNG and Oil tanker escort, fire-fighting and oil spill response/recovery duties. The RAstar class hull form is said to ensure the highest standards of both escort towing capability and superior sea-keeping in the heavy sea conditions encountered in these operations.
The "Alaryam" with a bollard pull of 84 t is classed for unrestricted duty and accordingly was built to Lloyd's Register of Shipping Class: 100 A1 Escort Tug, Fire-Fighting Ship 1 (2,400 m3/hour), Occasional Oil Recovery Duties LMC, UMS, EP, MCM, and in full compliance with SOLAS and International Loadline regulations.
