Towboat Fleet
Barge Register

The HFL atmospheric tank barge fleet is constantly growing. We pride ourselves in having the nicest tank barges on the water. Although we will add or change things as the customer request, we also pride ourselves in standardization of features across our fleet.



30,000 bbl Capacity Tank Barges
By no means does a standardized fleet mean that our barges abilities are limited. Our 30,000 bbl fleet includes both internally framed barges and externally framed barges for specialty chemical service. Some of our 30,000 bbl barges have specialty features such as fully segregated dual cargo hauling capabilities but we are always open to customer input in specialty features on our tank barges.

10,000 bbl Capacity Tank Barges
Specialty features are not exclusive to our larger barges. Our 10,000 bbl fleet is fully externally framed for maximum cargo flexibility. All HFL 10,000 bbl barges are also equipped with steam systems via channels running on the underside of the cargo tank floors. In many of the HFL 10,000 bbl barges many of the specialization is taking a step further with the addition of high grade stainless steel cargo piping systems and cargo tank linings.
