Svitzer Launches First Methanol-Hybrid Tug for Port of Gothenburg

METHANOL

Svitzer has launched its first methanol-hybrid tug, the largest and most powerful Transverse tug built to date. The 35-meter tug features a draught of 6 meters and a bollard pull of 85 tonnes. It will be deployed to the Port of Gothenburg, Sweden, ahead of the International Tug & Salvage Convention in May 2026, aiming to deliver near-zero emissions while towing, maneuvering, and docking ships, including Maersk Line's methanol-fueled container carriers.
