Description:
-IMO#8101915- seen being discharging road salt in Chelsea,MA,12-18-07. Here it is, the proof, she is NOT purely a cement carrier, but and open hatched bulker with cement equipment, I would tend to think that KCL Bardu is much the same.

COMMENT THIS PHOTO(3)
Still think its strange that she brought in that cargo. Doesnt that company own just cement carriers?

About KCL Bardu: I know for sure she was launched as a straight bulker (with cranes) and is now probably a bulker equipped for carrying cement as well as other bulk cargoes. Historically, the Klaveness company has been deeply involved in cement trade and the Bardu may be in a long time charter trading cement. But that was not the fact in her earlier days. This I know since I was on a guided tour onboard i ´81!
The Jebsen company of Bergen/ Norway, managing Cozumel cement, is also known as a major owner of cement carriers as well as their Gearbulkers, Obo´s and a few other types. Some/ many of their smaller vessels a pure cement carriers trading mainly in coastal/ regional- not longer overseas, traffic. It would probably be a costs problem building large vessels as pure cement carriers because of return cargo problems.
Happy new year, by the way.
