Svitzer has unveiled its first methanol-hybrid tug, the largest Transverse tug to date, measuring 35 meters with a draught of 6 meters and a bollard pull of 85 tonnes. Set for deployment at the Port of Gothenburg, Sweden, this innovative tug aims to achieve near-zero emissions while assisting in the towing, maneuvering, and docking of vessels, including Maersk Line's methanol-fueled container carriers, ahead of the International Tug & Salvage Convention in May 2026.
