Vessel Description

WS Itaqui is a Brazilian-flagged general cargo vessel built in 1988, operating primarily along Brazilian coastal trade routes. The vessel is associated with the Port of Itaqui in São Luís, Maranhão, one of Brazil's most significant bulk cargo terminals. With a deadweight of approximately 7,344 tons and a length of 112.6 meters, the vessel is suited for regional cargo operations along the Brazilian coast. As a vessel of the late 1980s construction era, she represents the conventional single-screw diesel-powered cargo ship design common to that period of Brazilian maritime development.
