New Cement Carrier

[guest]

I see the cement barge Metis was dry docked at Ontario ship yard in Port Weller this week.

The 'temporary' vessel Sunnanvik has been hauling cement out of the Larfarge Canada (Holcim) plant at Bath. So it appears that Eureaka (CSL) may have taken this business from Algoma's joint venture NACC. Lafarge Canada announced a long term charter with NACC back in 2017, to provide a vessel. Over the past few years the NACC Capri, the NACC Alicudi and the NACC Argonaut have all hauled cement out of Bath. The NACC Capri and the NACC Alicudi are no longer registered in Canada and are now sailing in Europe. The NACC Argonaunt is still registered in Canada and may be tied up in Oshawa.

Ran across this article. In they mention that the new ship will allow the company to retire two older ones. Which ones I wonder?
