Wagenborg tugs support Norway bridge project
A Dutch tug and barge owner is supporting the construction of a new road highway bridge in Norway by towing sections from Poland
Wagenborg tugs and barges have transported engineered sections of the Ramfjord Bridge from Poland to Norway.
Tugs Waterland and Waterman towed 100-m Wagenborg Barge 8 and 122-m Wagenborg Barge 9, loaded with heavy bridge segments, from Stettin, Poland to Tromsø, Norway.
Hebo Maritime Service is constructing the 870-m Ramfjord Bridge to improve traffic flow and safety in the Tromsø area for the E8 Sørbotn–Laukslett highway project.
Hebo chartered Wagenborg’s seagoing pontoons and tugs for safe, efficient, reliable transport of this project cargo.
2020-built Waterland, at 498 gt and 32 m overall length, has a bollard pull of 80 tonnes and a beam of 13 m, while 1988-built, 429-gt Waterman has a length of 33 m, a beam of 10 m and a bollard pull of 56 tonnes.
Wagenborg is involved in other project cargo tows for marine civil engineering and offshore developments.
In Q3 2025, it supported HSM Offshore Energy with the loadout of two steel structures for Thor, Denmark’s largest offshore windfarm. Wagenborg Barge 11 and Wagenborg Barge 10 were loaded with the steel jacket and topsides for a substation platform for this development in Schiedam, the Netherlands, and were towed to Denmark.
The 28th International Tug & Salvage Convention, Exhibition & Awards will be held in Gothenburg, Sweden, in association with Caterpillar, 19-21 May 2026. Use this link for more details of this industry event and the associated social and networking opportunities.
