Barges

OSPREY BARGES

Osprey has the largest fleet of UK-registered barges – the widest range of vessels suitable for any project, ready to be scheduled into your plans.

We’ve used these vessels for nearshore construction, deep-sea projects, cable deliveries, platforms and staging, component delivery, innovative installation projects and standard load-ins and load-outs of all kinds. From ocean-going barges to smaller vessels that can navigate inland waterways and lock systems – Osprey’s barges are the solution for all marine special logistics.
