Ocean-Going Tug

As a leading Chinese manufacturer of ocean-going tugs, HAIDING SHIPYARD leverages decades of experience in the research and development of ocean-going vessels, a global service network, and multiple international certifications from ABS, CCS, BV, and DNV to create a series of high-quality ocean-going tugs adapted to extreme scenarios such as transoceanic operations, polar exploration, and deep-sea engineering. The products not only meet ISO international quality system certification but have also received certification for flagship projects under the "Belt and Road Initiative" and recognition from the IMO.  Exported to 132 countries and regions including Russia, the United States, and Malaysia, these tugs have become a trusted brand for global maritime engineering, transoceanic cargo transportation, and polar scientific research due to their superior power, extended range, and exceptional reliability.

The Ocean-Going Tug series is a flagship product of HAIDING SHIPYARD's expertise in the field of ocean-going equipment.  It addresses core industry challenges such as long-distance deep-sea navigation, high salt spray corrosion, extreme weather conditions, and ice zone operations through comprehensive technological breakthroughs and scenario-based optimization. In terms of power configuration, the series features a modular dual-engine system with 5000-16000 HP, offering optional engines from internationally renowned brands such as Weichai, Cummins, and Niigata.  With bollard pull ranging from 65 to 280 tons, it can easily complete transoceanic towing tasks for heavy assets such as FPSO floating production platforms, deep-sea drilling equipment, and ultra-large cargo ships. Regarding range, the large-capacity fuel tank design and optimized fuel efficiency allow for a full-load range exceeding 3500 nautical miles, covering transoceanic routes such as the Atlantic and Indian Oceans without the need for refueling, completely eliminating the "range anxiety" associated with traditional ocean-going tugs. In terms of structure and corrosion protection, the vessels feature a double-hull, double-bottom, and torsion-resistant reinforced design. The main hull material is high-strength special steel, coupled with a deep-sea grade anti-corrosion coating (special fluorocarbon coating + cathodic protection system). This design can withstand Category 12 winds and waves and extreme temperature differences of -20℃ to 35℃, and can also resist erosion from high salt spray and ice floe friction. Some models have obtained Ice Class 1B and above ice class certification, allowing for safe operation in seasonal ice zones of the polar regions and areas with dense Arctic Ocean currents. In terms of handling performance, all models are equipped with DP2/DP3 dynamic positioning systems, with a positioning accuracy of ≤0.3 meters.  Combined with azimuth thrusters and a PLC integrated hydraulic control system, the response speed is ≤0.5 seconds, enabling precise positioning of deep-sea platforms and flexible maneuvering in narrow ice channels, even under strong currents and winds.

HAIDING SHIPYARD's Ocean-Going Tugs are not only industry leaders in technical parameters but have also accumulated a wealth of successful case studies in practical applications:

From escorting Arctic research vessels and towing deep-sea oil and gas platforms in the Middle East, to transoceanic transportation of wind power equipment in Southeast Asia, and emergency rescue in the ice-covered North Sea of Europe, this series of products has consistently demonstrated reliable performance. To meet the diverse needs of different customers, the brand provides comprehensive customized services: power can be upgraded according to the operating scenario (up to 3600kW×2, approximately 10000HP), hull size can be extended, and functional accessories such as FIFI III fire fighting systems, oil spill recovery devices, and ROV submersible lifting modules can be added; for polar operations, the hull ice belt structure can be reinforced, and the anti-freeze hydraulic system and low-temperature starting device can be upgraded; for ultra-long-distance missions, extra-large capacity fuel tanks and freshwater reserve tanks can be added, extending the range to over 2000 nautical miles. In terms of after-sales service, core components (engine, propulsion system, positioning system) are covered by a one-year warranty.  Leveraging a global network of over 20 localized service centers and a 24/7 emergency response mechanism, we can provide technical support and original spare parts within 48 hours in key maritime areas. We also offer free on-site installation and commissioning, operator training, and lifelong maintenance guidance. From technology research and development to manufacturing, from customized solutions to after-sales support, HAIDING SHIPYARD always prioritizes customer needs, making every Ocean-Going Tug a reliable partner for global customers in the offshore field. We provide stable, efficient, and safe power support for various extreme maritime tasks, continuously leading the technological upgrading and quality innovation of the global ocean-going tug industry.
