m.t.s. Apollo
The Apollo is the first type C tanker for inland waterways that applies the use of bigger tanks as mentioned in the ADNR. The tanks can hold 760m3 each instead of 380m3. The Scheldehuid makes this possible as it reduces the risk of leakage in a collision. The ship was nominated for the KNVTS Ship of the Year Award 2008. In addition to the article in SWZ Maritime, edition 1, 2009, some extra photo's can be found here (pictures by Arie Jonkman and Gerard Deen).
