"Cenac has long had preference for triple-screw propulsion for vessels that handle oil barge. About 75 percent of our fleet operating with triple screws. Mostly for reasons of redundancy and safety. We want to be always able to have our tugs maneuver as effectively as possible snd this way even if they lose an engine we'll still have a fully functional tug boat". This from following web site....
