Vessel Description

SAAM PARECI is an ASD (Azimuth Stern Drive) harbor tug operating under the Brazilian flag as part of the SAAM Towage Brasil fleet. The vessel was constructed at Wilson Sons Estaleiros shipyard in Brazil and is designed for harbor towage, escort, and ship-handling operations. The tug is equipped with azimuthing drive units providing high maneuverability typical of modern ASD tugs, making it well suited for close-quarters port operations. The vessel is part of a series of tugs that were formerly operated by Wilson Sons Rebocadores before the towage division was acquired by SAAM, a Chilean maritime services company that significantly expanded its presence in Brazilian port operations.
