<p>The present invention describes embodiments of flat deck barges (10, 10a, 20, 20a). General cargoes, containers (61-63), bales (67), crates (69) and bulk materials (68) are stored on the deck (11) surface whilst flowable or liquid cargoes are stored in storage compartments (48) or tanks (38) disposed below the deck (11). A piping skid room (31) houses a piping skid (23), a control console (28) or an operation room (29). The piping skid (23) includes a port skid (25) and a valve skid (27). In an embodiment, the port skid (25) is pivoted in a recess at the deck for accessing inlet/outlet ports (24) the from the deck surface. In another embodiment, the piping skid (23) is erected on a mount (58), which is operable to extend the piping skid (23) up above the deck surface when in use.</p> |
