BARGE BUILDING/LEASING/BUNKERING/VALVES/FITTINGS 246 The listings above are an editorial service provided for the convenience of our readers recently at Versatile Pacific Shipyards(VPSI) in Victoria, B.C., Canada. The state-of-the-art scientific vessel, con- structed over 16 months at a cost of $17 million, will be based in Newfoundland with Fisheries and Oceans Canada. Peter Quinn, VPSFs chairman and chief executive officer, said the ship was moved from dry land onto the submersible barge Arctic Tar- suit at the Public Works Canada Graving Dock using a system of skid-shoes moving on portable trucks. The barge was then submerged, allowing the vessel to float off. Mr. Quinn said the company will also launch two new search and rescue vessels by the same method later this year. The SAR 500 vessels are also being constructed in Victoria for the Cana- dian Coast Guard. The Fisheries and Oceans survey ship has an overall length of about 168 feet, breadth of 34 feet and depth of 16 feet. It has a full displace- ment of 856 tons, is powered by twin-screw, 1,250 shaft horsepower, and will carry a crew of 19, including scientists.

At the Esso Canada Research Facility at Cal- gary, Alberta, Esso Petroleum and the Burrard Clean Oil Spill Response Cooperative of Van- couver, British Columbia, recently cosponsored a test of oil spill recovery equipment test effec- tiveness. In order to make the test particularly diffi- cult, the sponsors used Canadian-produced Cold Lake crude, a very dense, viscous product with a great tendency to cling to whatever it touches. In addition, pieces of debris were added to the oil. The Marco Filterbelt recovery system was among those tested. Within 20 minutes, the 29- foot Class I vessel equipped with the system was filled to capacity with both the Cold Lake crude and the debris.
