JMU Trinity's Moss Point Marine, Moss Point, Miss., has delivered Petrojet 5, a 114-ft. (34.7-m) anchor handling tug to Petroleum Projects & Technical Consultations, Co., in Cairo, Egypt. The tug, powered by two Deutz BV8M628 diesel engines driving 100-in. diameter bronze pro- pellers in Kort nozzels through Reintjes WAF1961 reverse/reduction gears, is now oper- ating out of Maadia Port. The vessel has a top speed of 13.5 knots and a normal operating speed of 11 knots. Electrical power is produced by two Volvo Penta driven Marathon 150 kW 380V, 50-Hertz, 3-phase generators. Steering is provided by an EMI electro-hydraulic system, manueverability is aided by a Schottel bowthruster, and McElroy manufactured deck equipment on board includes a waterfall/anchor handling winch, an anchor windlass and tugger winch. The vessel has a 34-ft. (10.4-m) beam, and a draft of 14.5 ft. (4.4 m). It can carry 63,000 gallons of fuel and 11,500 gallons of potable water. Petrojet 5 made the approximately 5,600-mile trip from Trinity's Moss Point yard to Alexand- ria, Egypt, in 24 days, encountering no prob- lems along the way. The Trinity Marine Group includes 21 yards in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, Ten- nessee and Missouri.

This unit reportedly uses only a fraction of the flow required to extend a conventional cylinder of equal bore. The piston rod can be advanced to over 30- in./sec. for reduced cycle time, and full flow ports eliminate large flow losses and pressure drops. The gun-drilled piston rod reportedly decreases weight and enhances cycle rate per- formance. These cylinders are available in 8-in. bore and larger, and are made to order.
