SERVICES - MARITIME SERVICES

Many goods are transported by sea aboard large barges. Some of these barges may transport dangerous materials. No matter what is on board the barge, you need to find a place to get rid of the heel, residual cargo and any other substances that can impede the functionality of your ship. Our docks at K-Solv are fully equipped to handle all your maritime services to ensure you get to your destination on time. We understand your arrival deadlines are important to you and your clients.

ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE CLEANING

While there are many docks that are able to provide cleaning services to your vessels, our docks boast the ability to clean your vessel and get it back in top condition in no time. We offer state-of-the-art services that provide you with everything you need without slowing you down. We are equipped to handle both pressurized barges and regular barges to best meet the needs of all shippers. Our maritime services include nitrogen handling and a vapor control unit for depressurization.

K-Solv has a state-of-the-art barge stripping facility, located on the Houston Ship Channel in Channelview, TX. Stripping consists of pumping as much residual cargo as possible from the barge.
