RAsalvor Class
The RAsalvor Class tugs are a new design development from Robert Allan Ltd., created to address the growing worldwide demand for large and powerful rescue/salvage tugs. The RAsalvor Class tugs are designed to provide long range towing, anchor-handling, rescue and salvage capabilities, and fire-fighting capacity. Additional functions such as dive support, DP operations, and standby functions can also be accommodated.
The hull form for this class has been extensively model tested and refined through CFD analysis, resulting in a truly optimized hull to deliver high speed and excellent sea-keeping capability as befits the role of these tugs.
Designs are currently under development for tugs for 120-220 tonnes BP, and range from 55-75 metres in length. The first of Class design is for a 60 metre, 160 tonne BP tug.
