Transforming Trans Tind

In late 2023, Seatrans Group completed the integration of vessel Oriental Lotus, now known as Trans Tind, into their fleet. This acquisition was a key part of Seatrans’ strategic expansion efforts, focusing on innovation and environmental sustainability.

Major upgrades

Trans Tind has recently received several important upgrades to improve her performance and reduce her environmental impact. The ship now features a modern Ballast Water Treatment System (BWTS) to prevent the spread of invasive species through ballast water. Technical upgrades were made to reduce emissions, ensuring the vessel will meet the group’s environmental targets. The vessel has also upgraded its capabilities with the installation of thermal oil heating systems and fittings to carry propylene oxide. Eco-friendly methods were used to remove the old anti-fouling paint, employing high-pressure water technology instead of harsh chemicals to minimise pollution. Additionally, Trans Tind underwent a visual transformation, adopting Seatrans’ distinctive bright orange colour scheme. These efforts reflect Seatrans’ ongoing commitment to sustainability and environmental protection.

Setting a green course

Seatrans is committed to sustainability and innovation, with the transformation of Trans Tind being a good example. These advancements are expected to improve capabilities and provide environmental benefits, enhancing the positive impact on the fleet. By modernising its operations, Seatrans sets an industry example for environmental responsibility and operational excellence. This is just the beginning, with more developments in sustainability ahead as Seatrans works towards a greener maritime industry.
