The EM-75 class fleet oiler was developed by the Elias Marine Corporation and subsidaries in order to fill a requirement from the Elias Navy for 4 auxilary vessels specifically designed for the transfer of liquid fuels, although with the capacity for other stores also.
There are stations on both sides of each ship for underway replenishment of fuel and stores. Equipped with 5 fueling stations, they can replenish two ships at a time pumping up to 900,000 gallons of diesel fuel and 540,000 gallons of jet fuel per hour. These ships have a capacity for small quantities of fresh and frozen provisions, stores, and other materials which will permit full replenishment of some of their customers. With a dry cargo carrying capacity of 7,400 square feet and refrigerated deck vans that can hold up to 128 pallets of chilled food, they can deliver fleet cargo, mail, and provisions via CONREP (connected replenishment) from two dry cargo rigs or via VERTREP (vertical replenishment) on the helo deck.
The oiler is offered in two different versions:
The 'A' Variant is the standard singlehulled version and the 'B' is more expensive, slightly heavier and has less fuel capacity but is double hulled for more enviromentally sensitive nations (especially UN members who signed up for a ban on single hulled tankers.)
