Best practices: examples of our innovative new vessels and services in the Ship Management division 

Ineos Barges

INEOS Mega Barges

During the conceptual design of four gas tanker vessels, INEOS received consultancy and support from HGK Ship Management. Our Ship Management team took on construction supervision for the vessels, monitored their handover and has subsequently operated them on behalf of INEOS. These tankers have three times the capacity of conventional gas tankers and have been fabricated entirely to the new ADN-2019 standard for gas tankers.

The vessels were built at shipyards in the Netherlands. They are driven by a Veth pod system rather than by a conventional shaft drive. They feature six cargo tanks with a capacity of more than 5500 m³.

Synthese 18

The latest additions to the HGK Shipping fleet combine a draught-optimised design with a diesel-electric drive. This also applies to the Synthese 18. 

For press release

Amadeus Titanium

The liquid coaster ‘Amadeus Titanium’ from HGK Shipping’s short-sea fleet is an addition to the portfolio of Amadeus Schiffahrts- und Spedition GmbH. The Amadeus Titanium was converted by HGK Ship Management and our partners to a tanker specialised to our customer’s needs and was accomplished in a short period of time. This coaster is in use for European short-sea routes exclusively by our customer Covestro as part of a multi-year contract.

For press release

Gas 94

‘Gas 94’ is currently one of the most modern new inland barges, with a sustainable hybrid drive system. This extremely draught-optimised gas ship came into operation in September 2021. Take a look at the test voyage.
