Deck Barge

Shandong Haiding Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. is a leading manufacturer and supplier of Deck Barge in China, and Shandong Haiding Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. also focuses on the development of product technology. HAIDING SHIPYARD Deck Barge is a specialized equipment designed for inland river and coastal open cargo transportation.

With "open deck + modular adaptation" as the core, HAIDING SHIPYARD Deck Barge focuses on efficient transfer of uncovered cargo such as steel, large equipment, containers, and bulk cargo (coal/grain/ore). It can also be used as a temporary loading/unloading platform and engineering construction auxiliary platform, solving the pain points of traditional closed barges such as "low loading/unloading efficiency and poor cargo adaptability", and providing flexible, durable and cost-effective open cargo transportation solutions for shipping enterprises.

Core Advantages

Flexible Structure, Suitable for Various Types of Cargo

Open Deck Design: The unobstructed deck (area 50-500㎡) allows flexible layout according to cargo size, supporting transportation of "extra-long/extra-wide/overweight" goods (e.g., 20m-long steel, 40ft containers) without being restricted by cargo hold dimensions;

Customizable Hoisting Points: 2-4 hoisting points (load capacity 20-100 tons) can be added on demand, compatible with mainstream hoisting equipment such as truck cranes and floating cranes, enabling efficient "vessel-to-shore/vessel-to-vessel" loading and unloading, with efficiency 40% higher than traditional barges.

High-Strength Load Capacity, Safe and Durable

Material Assurance: The HAIDING SHIPYARD Deck Barge is made of Q345 high-strength steel, with deck thickness 12-20mm, uniform load capacity 10-30kN/㎡, and maximum load 3000 tons, meeting long-term transportation needs of heavy cargo;

Anti-Corrosion & Durability: HAIDING SHIPYARD Deck Barge standard with inland river-specific three-layer anti-corrosion coating (bottom phosphating anti-rust layer + middle epoxy resin isolation layer + surface wear-resistant polyurethane layer), service life ≥15 years in fresh water; salt-spray resistant coating can be upgraded for coastal scenarios, improving corrosion resistance by 60%.

Strong Scene Adaptability, Easy Operation

Suitable for Both Shallow & Deep Waters: Draft depth 1.0-3.5m, enabling flexible operation in Yangtze River tributaries (shallow waters) and coastal inshore areas (deep waters) without changing vessels;

Optional Auxiliary Functions: Side thrusters (improving maneuverability in narrow rivers), deck anti-slip patterns (increasing safety by 50% in rainy days), and 1.2m-high anti-collision guardrails (preventing cargo slipping) can be added to adapt to complex operation environments.

Low-Cost Operation & Maintenance, Cost Reduction & Efficiency Improvement

Non-Self-Propelled Design: HAIDING SHIPYARD Deck Barge relies on tugboats for towing, reducing vulnerable components such as main engines and propulsion systems, with maintenance cost 35% lower than self-propelled barges;

Easy-Maintenance Structure: No complex cabins or pipelines on the deck; daily inspection only needs to focus on deck welds and hoisting point connections, with maintenance cycle extended to once every 6 months.

Detailed Technical Parameters

Typical Application Scenarios

Inland River Industrial Cargo Transportation

Raw Material Transportation for Steel Mills/Power Plants: Carries bulk cargo such as steel and coal, transferring from inland ports to coastal steel mills and power plants. The open deck design adapts to "extra-long steel coils" and "large coal hoppers", with single-transport volume 25% higher than traditional barges;

Engineering Equipment Transfer: Transports engineering equipment such as excavators and cranes to inland river bridge construction and waterway dredging sites; HAIDING SHIPYARD Deck Barge can be directly hoisted via customized hoisting points without additional loading/unloading platforms.

Coastal Short-Distance Open Cargo Transportation

Container Short-Distance Feeder Transportation: Transfers 20ft/40ft containers between coastal ports and inshore industrial zones; the deck can stack 2-3 layers of containers (uniform load ≥20kN/㎡), enabling rapid loading/unloading with floating cranes;

Sand/ Ore Transportation: Transfers sand and ore from coastal quarries and mines to mixing plants and terminals; the deck's wear-resistant treatment (sandblasting + anti-corrosion coating) reduces cargo friction loss and extends deck service life.

Temporary Operation Platform

Wharf Maintenance Assistance: Serves as a temporary loading/unloading platform during port wharf maintenance, replacing damaged berths to ensure normal cargo transfer;

Marine Engineering Construction: HAIDING SHIPYARD Deck Barge acts as a temporary operation platform for bridge construction and floating solar installation; the deck can place construction materials and small equipment, with reserved water and electricity interfaces to meet construction needs.

Service Guarantee

Warranty Commitment

Core Structure Warranty: 2-year free warranty for core structures such as hull, deck, and mooring piles; free maintenance parts and on-site repair services are provided for quality issues like structural deformation and weld cracking during the warranty period;

Anti-Corrosion Coating Warranty: 5-year warranty for inland river-specific three-layer anti-corrosion coating, 3-year warranty for coastal salt-spray resistant coating; free on-site touch-up is provided for coating peeling and rust during the warranty period.

Customization Services

Parameter Customization: Adjust length, width, and deck load according to customer's cargo size (e.g., extra-long steel, overweight equipment); add dedicated hoisting points and fixing devices (such as steel limit blocks);

Scenario Adaptation: Optimize draft depth (minimum 1.0m) for inland shallow water operations; upgrade corrosion-resistant materials (such as stainless steel mooring piles) for coastal salt-spray environments;

Value-Added Services: Provide value-added services such as vessel berthing assistance, annual inspection agency, and crew operation training to reduce customer operating costs.
