Ship Types / Tugs and Pushers

Description. Motor ship OT-1401 (type ARKUS, project 92-049, slovakian designation TR ARKUS, 'river pusher ARKUS') is the big line tug-pusher. Ship was built as the first ship in the planned series intended to replace elderly pushers of the type "Dunayskiy". Serial name (OT-1400) means ozernyy tolkach or 'lake pusher', 1400 h.p. Pusher is equipped with the automated barge-holding device of the O-200 type; also the modification for eastern rivers was worked out with the device of the UDR-100 type. No serial production took place; the single built ship "OT-1401" belongs to the Rechmortrans company (former Expedition for the sea steering of the river ships). At present time it is used with former barge attachments of the dry cargo motor ships of the type "Volzhskiy", which were converted into the "river-sea" class.
