Jack Tanner Towing has two harbor towboats and a bunch of anchors along the west shore to hold fleets of barges. They break apart line tows, deliver barges to customers when they are needed and build up line tows.
Jack Tanner Towing posted We have more than a few barges in the fleet today!! 100 to be exact! |

Sunrise FS
Jack Turner Towing posted three photos with the comment:
Imperial Dock at the FS plant unloading it's first ever shipment of Urea. They will be used in a new system put in that will create DEF here in Havana. At full capacity they will be going through 1 barge a month. (Urea is used in SNCR and SCR reactions to reduce the NOx pollutants in exhaust gases from combustion from Diesel, dual fuel, and lean-burn natural gas engines. Trucks and cars using these catalytic converters need to carry a supply of diesel exhaust fluid (DEF, also known as AdBlue), a mixture of urea and water.)
[Note the ground pile is full on Feb 15, 2017.]

I had noticed from the satellite image that this facility was unloading "brown stuff" into trucks. As a farm supply facility, they would handle dry fertilizer. A urea plant provides an even bigger market for the transloading facility. I captured a satellite image because it shows an excavator actively unloading a barge into a truck and several trucks queued up to unload corn. The barge will probably be filled with corn before it leaves.

Jack Turner Towing posted The M/V Pat Pickett showing how big the M/V Kevin Michael [177' x 42'] really is while taking on fuel. [The triple-screw M/V Dan Macmillan (190' x 54') is an even bigger towboat that has visited Havana.] |
