Self-Unloaders

CSL Kanata

The Americas and Caribbean

MV CSL Kanata is a 79,700 DWT Kamsarmax, self-unloading bulk carrier with seven cargo holds, strengthened for heavy cargoes, loaded through seven hatches. This vessel currently operates on the Coasts of the Americas.

The discharge is gravity fed through the gate system via two longitudinal conveyor belts feeding to a central C-loop that lifts the cargo onto the boom conveyor and ashore.

Discharge rate is variable to the maximum of 5,000 metric tonnes per hour and 4,000 cubic metres per hour for volumetric cargoes.

Using the flexible boom and precise control of the discharge rate makes the vessel suitable for discharge to almost any receiving facility including enclosed hoppers, barges, and trucks.

The vessel is double hulled, including bunker tanks, and utilizes a bow thruster and rudder to give excellent handling characteristics.

MV CSL Kanata  is wholly owned and operated by CSL.
