PMG180 is an in-survey barge offering strong deck capacity and door clearance for its class, representing good value for a buyer prepared to bring it up to their required standard and renew the survey in March 2027.
Sold as inspected, with current condition accepted and reflected in the asking price. The diesel hydraulic powerpack for the main loading door is a Neumann DHPU-36/45 with a CAT power unit and is in good condition with low hours. The door was installed by the current owners and is significantly younger than the barge itself. The barge has partial side-walls which have been left in place from a deconstructed tank(s). These walls provide useful barriers for loading and run roughly half the length of the barge from the centre.
Full spec sheet, detailed condition/off-hire report from December 2025 and survey documentation available on request.
