The Reliance / 650 Class ATB (180,000 Bbls) - The Next Generation Of Crowley ATBs

Building on our success with the Reliance/550 class ATB's, Crowley is moving forward with plans for a larger 180,000 bbls ATB for delivery in early 2006.

In addition to more cubic capacity, the base model 180,000 bbls ATB will be designed for easy modification to allow carriage of easy chemicals such as cyclohexane, paraxylene, and styrene.

Subsequent deliveries of this class of ATB to a customer is projected to be 20 to 22 months after contract signing.
