NP Glory 4 - Tracking

To assist in the completion of St Helena International Airport, Basil Read has chartered a massive Thai cargo vessel, the NP Glory 4.

The NP Glory 4 cargo vessel has been charted from NP Marine for a period of 36-months for the project to transport fuel, materials and plant to and from the island.

With cargo carrying capacity of 2 400 tons, this vessel is 78 m long with a width of 16 m and a draft of 3.5 m when fully laden. The ship has a 70 tonne ramp and deck space of 800 m2, which it allows it to carry more than 140  6 m-long containers.

At the peak of St Helena Airport’s Construction, the NP Glory 4 will transport 900 tons of diesel and 1 500 tons of deck cargo. The vessel has also been fitted with a 40ft crane on deck. This gives the ship the capability of handling up to 30 tonne loads anywhere on the deck.
