WASHBURN & DOUGHTY BUILDS ANOTHER TUG FOR MORAN: Diane Moran
On June 29, 2001, the new tractor tug Diane Moran, named in honor of William P. Muller's wife, was christened. During his 25 years with Moran Mr. Muller has held numerous positions throughout the company. Currently he is Senior Vice President responsible for Construction & Repair, Information Technology, Training, Safety, Asset administration, Environmental Services, and other special projects. Coming to Moran in 1977 from Prudential Grace Lines and Marine Office Appleton & Cox, he began his career in various capacities within the New York sales and operations departments. He was transferred to Moran's Jacksonville, Florida subsidiary in 1980, where he became Vice President and General Manager and returned to headquarters in Greenwich in 1989 as Vice President, Operations for Moran's New York operation. In 1995 he was promoted to President, Moran Services Corp and was made a Vice President & Director of Moran Towing Corporation. In 1999 he was promoted to his current position as Senior Vice President of Moran Towing Corporation. The Diane Moran is the newest addition to Moran's current fleet of 95 tugs operating out of 13 ports on the East and Gulf Coasts of the U.S. The Diane Moran is the 7th tug built for Moran at Washburn & Doughty within the last few years and while similar in size to the other six, (92' x 32' x 14') the Diane will have a slightly higher height of eye for visibility and more power. She is equipped with twin EMD 12-645F7B engines delivering a total of 5100 HP through twin Rolls Royce 1650H Z-drives. As she enters service, the Diane Moran will have the operational capabilities necessary to meet any of Moran's customer's requirements. |
