Delivered in 2017 by the Philly Shipyard in Philadelphia, the vessel was constructed for the Crowley Maritime Corporation as part of a new generation of environmentally advanced tankers. Measuring approximately 600 feet (183 m) in length with a deadweight of about 50,000 metric tons, it is capable of transporting up to 330,000 barrels of refined products, including gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. The ship features a fuel-efficient hull design developed by the Hyundai Mipo Dockyard, along with double-hull construction, automated cargo handling systems, and LNG-ready technology that allows for future conversion to cleaner-burning fuel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince entering service, the American Endurance has operated along the U.S. East, Gulf, and West Coasts, ensuring the efficient movement of essential energy resources between refineries, terminals, and major ports. Built to meet the highest industry standards for safety, environmental protection, and operational efficiency, the tanker integrates advanced navigation equipment, ballast water treatment systems, and emission-reduction technologies. As one of Crowley’s most capable vessels, the American Endurance plays a critical role in maintaining a secure domestic energy supply chain while showcasing the continued evolution of American shipbuilding and maritime excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Captain Heritage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48354502705373,"sku":"CM970","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/captainheritage.com\/hi\/products\/cm970-crowley-product-36-inches-tanker-model","provider":"Captain Heritage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
