36’ Lift Barge

EBDG designed a specialized 36'x12' aluminum equipment barge for hydro-intake projects. Key features include a 25,000-pound Pullmaster M25-7-86-2 lifting winch and a Thern 571 davit with a 1,500-pound capacity. The barge boasts a deadweight of 7 LT and a deck area of 400 square feet, providing ample space for equipment and operations. Equipped with a Yanmar 3TNV84T diesel-driven hydraulic power unit, it powers four 1,200-pound mooring winches. The barge's versatility is enhanced by removable handrail sections and the ability to deploy and recover remote-operated vehicles (ROVs) for underwater inspections. Constructed with durable aluminum, this barge is a robust and adaptable solution for hydro-intake and other marine projects.
