Flat Barge
A barge is a vessel with a flat bottom that is used to transport bulk freight along rivers and canals. On a nearby towpath, barges were once hauled by draft horses. Barges have changed over time.
SICHO has four 1100 ton flat barges with a cargo deck length of 47 meters and a width of 14.64 meters, one 1000 ton flat barge with a cargo deck length of 68.29 meters and a width of 10.36 meters, one 800 ton flat barge with a cargo deck length of 44.2 meters and a width of 13.71 meters, and one 500 ton flat barge with a cargo deck length of 41.16 meters and a width of 9.15 meters.
A ballast tank and pump are installed on every flat barge.
