Description

MacGregor’s dry bulk handling systems are engineered to ensure the efficient transfer and storage of dry bulk cargo on offshore supply vessels, including AHTSs and PSVs. Designed for reliability and operational simplicity, these systems improve vessel performance while reducing operational costs.

MacGregor offers two proven system types:

• Hopper and blow pump concept, based on technology successfully applied on cement carriers for over 20 years.

• Traditional pressurised tank storage and discharge system, ideal for various offshore applications.

The hopper and blow pump design delivers significant operational benefits, including a 50–70% increase in bulk capacity, space efficiency, and low installation and maintenance costs. With reduced risk of clogging, simplified piping, and operator-friendly controls, these systems also minimize environmental impact, making them an ideal choice for shipowners, shipbuilders, and operators worldwide.
