Swan Hunter To Build Vessel To Transport Spent Nuclear Fuels Swan Hunter Shipbuilders Lim- ited of Great Britain have re- ceived an order to build a special- ized vessel costing approximately $8,750,000 to carry spent nuclear fuel from Japan to France and the United Kingdom. The ship has been ordered by Pacific Nuclear Transport, a sub- sidiary of British Nuclear Fuels Limited. Believed to be the world's first purpose-built nuclear waste car- rier, the 3,200-dwt twin-screw vessel is scheduled for delivery toward the end of 1978. To meet the many stringent safety regu- lations involved, it will be of specialized construction, with double-skinned holds and addi- tional navigational and firefight- ing equipment. The approximate dimensions of the vessel are: length overall, 338 feet; molded breadth, 53 feet, and molded depth, 31 feet. The main propulsion machinery will consist of British manufactured diesel engines. Pacific Nuclear Transport has a contract worth about $262,500,000 to ship spent fuel from Japan to France and the United Kingdom. The new vessel will carry the spent fuel from Japan to France, discharging at Cap Le Havre. Choose International Marine Coatings and the sea of confusion calms down.
