The company's smoke detection systems are also discussed, as well as
Kidde's total marine capability to custom-design the ideal system to meet every marine fire protection need, and the domestic and interna- tional network of qualified experi- enced distributors to install and ser- vice these systems.

Kidde Offers Free Brochure
On Marine Fire Protection
Walter Kidde, Division of Kidde
Inc.," 375 Main Street, Belleville
N.J., is offering a free four-page bro- chure on the company's marine fire protection equipment for vessels, facilities, and other marine applica- tions.
Decorated with a blazing circle of flame as a reminder of the stagger- ing financial and ecological losses a single marine fire can cause, the publication is illustrated with color photos of various types of vessels and fire protection systems. The text states that through the years
Kidde's fire protection experts have met the challenge of total marine fire protection by designing systems to protect thousands of merchant ships, tankers, icebreakers, aircraft carriers, LNG tankers, container- ships, roll-on/roll-offs, etc., utilizing a variety of extinguishants and the most advanced fire protection tech- nology available.
The different Kidde Marine fire protection systems are discussed, such as Halon 1301, classified as "least toxic" and considered the sa- fest gaseous extinguishing agent, providing greater personnel safety;
Dry Chemical, which when used by itself or in conjunction with foam can provide ideal fire protection on any vessel where flammable liquids present a potential fire hazard; LO-
EX™ foam which is an excellent extinguishing agent against fuel fires that develop on tanker decks, fuel pumping facilities, off-shore platforms and other marine facili- ties; HI-EX® foam system, which is particularly effective in extinguish- ing fires in inaccessible areas of ma- rine vessels; and Kidde's automatic carbon dioxide systems for the pro- tection of contained areas such as
PAMS Installs New Drydock
At Its River Plant
The recently installed 1,200-ton dry-dock at PAMS' River Plant.
Maritime Reporter/Engineering News
Two significant events occurred at Midland/Port Allen Marine Ser- vices (PAMS) recently. The Baton-
Rouge-based firm announced the installation of a new dry dock at its
River Plant, located at Mile 224 on the Lower Mississippi River. The 1,200-ton drydock measures 56 feet between its wingwall and 155 feet in length. Since its placement, a series of barges has been drydocked in- cluding the Union Carbide barge.
With the drydock in place, PAMS has expanded its capabilities by of- fering quick turnaround to a variety of boats and barges in the Baton
Rouge Harbor.
The company's River Plant con- tinues to offer topside repair work with over 600 feet of repair dock space available. In addition, PAMS will continue to provide midstream repairs to deep-draft oceangoing vessels.
The Baton Rouge Harbor is also the site of PAMS Gas Freeing and
Cleaning Plant which is capable of handling some 117 different chemi- cal and petroleum products. In July, this facility reached a milestone.
The Cleaning Plant cleaned the largest barge to date, the Ocean 211, belonging to Sonat Marine. The barge, which is 500 feet long, 76 feet wide and 40 feet deep, was cleaned for taking on jet fuel.
PAMS Cleaning Plant treats and disposes of wash waters in strict adherence to all regulations estab- lished by the Louisiana State De- partment of Natural Resources and the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency.
PAMS continues to expand its service and facilities to meet the needs of its customers. A "total ser- vice shipyard," Port Allen Marine is a subsidiary of Midland Affilated
Company, Cincinnati, Ohio.
