Cargo-handling gear comprises two Hagglund 20-ton cranes, one 8-ton boom, and two 5-ton booms.

The Hagglund cranes are of the automated tandem type, which enables one operator to control both cranes simultaneously, there- by doubling the lifting capacity when necessary. Tandem crane operation is coordinated and syn- chronized by a mini-computer. 'ANTILLIA' MAJOR SUPPLIERS

ARCO CALIFORNIA

The oil tanker Arco California, second of two 188,500-tonners built for Atlantic Richfield Com- pany by National Steel and Ship- building, was delivered at the San

Diego yard. Like her sister ship

Arco Alaska, which was delivered to ARCO at the end of 1979, the new tanker is employed primarily in the Alaska to West Coast trade.

The principal destination is Long

Beach, Calif., where ARCO has offloading and storage facilities to supply its 185,000-barrel-per-day refinery located at nearby Carson.

The tanker has an overall length of 952 feet 8 inches, beam of 166 feet, depth of 78 feet, and full- load draft of 59 feet 3 inches. She has a cargo capacity of 1,320,000 barrels, and a complement of only 27 men.

Main components of the power plant are the General Electric turbines and gears, and the Com- bustion Engineering boilers. When operating at 80 percent of the rated 28,000 shp, the ship has a service speed of 14y4 knots.
