ABOUT FKAB T42
The T42 is a modern single-screw chemical tanker specifically developed for the safe and efficient transportation of a wide range of IMO Type 2 chemicals. With a robust yet flexible design, the vessel is equipped with ten fully segregated cargo tanks constructed from duplex stainless steel, offering superior corrosion resistance and long-term durability.
Each tank is fitted with a frequency-controlled deepwell electric cargo pump, allowing for precise, energy-efficient cargo handling with full operational flexibility. The arrangement ensures high safety standards, cargo segregation, and ease of maintenance.
The T42 design incorporates FKAB’s signature F-Bow hull form, which provides outstanding performance both in calm waters and in heavy seas. This not only enhances fuel efficiency and sea-keeping abilities but also contributes to lower emissions and smoother voyages making the T42 a sustainable choice for chemical transport.
Whether operating along the coast or in global trade routes, the T42 is engineered to deliver operational reliability, cargo flexibility, and environmental performance in a cost-effective package.
