The pump gear was never obvious on her, lying within the hold. When handling cargo she would have the hatches partially open, so assume there were tanks of some form in the hold as well. Observed her a few times working cargo, but could never get to a place to look into her hold.

Currently, Equasis shows her as a general cargo ship. She is classed with the Dromon Bureau of Shipping which also refers to her as a general cargo ship
Additionally, I have a full description for her when she was for sale in 2010. She's a box hold singledecker with a removable bulkhead enabling the single hold to be split into two sections. As such, she can no doubt carry bagged or bulk cement, along with many other cargoes, but there is no mention of specialist cement handling pumps or silos.

I had the same doubt, but some times the pumps are in the engine room and the connection just before the bridge. Old cargo holds are filled by manholes in the deck.
Also other pictures of this ship are in this section.

I doubt that she is a cement carrier in this photo as there is no on-deck pumping gear or silos. She looks the same as she did when built - a bog-standard singledecker. Equasis reckons that she is a cement carrier but, if she is, it's not in the strictest sense.
Cheers
