ALP presents ALP STRIKER Ultra Long Distance Anchor Handling Tug UHD 4K

The final test of the first of 4 newbuild ALP Ultra long distance Anchor handling Tugs; ALP STRIKER off Pohang, South Korea.

ALP STRIKER was intensively tested off the coast of Japan with most satisfactory results. ALP initially took delivery and raised the Dutch Flag onboard in Niigata on August 31, with only one test outstanding, the Bollard Pull test.

Finding a location to test a vessel expected to pull over 300 tons was a challenge in itself. However, we found a test site conveniently located only days sailing away, in Pohang South Korea.

Over a period of a week ALP STRIKER was prepared for the test in Pohang and on September 12 the test took place. A very impressive and most satisfactory 309.6 tons continuous was measured, the test witnessed by DNV-GL.

With this final test being performed equally satisfactory as the tests performed off Niigata, the vessel joined ALP’s fleet on 12 September.
