The world’s most technologically advanced livestock carrier, ‘Becrux’, has celebrated a milestone, successfully transporting its three millionth sheep.
The vessel is owned by Siba Ships of Italy. The vessel unloaded its milestone sheep in Doha, Qatar, on September 18 - just two months after its 500,000th cattle milestone was achieved. ‘Becrux’ is now returning to Perth in Australia to load another consignment for the Middle East. The vessel entered the Siba Ships livestock fleet in 2002 and has completed 77 voyages since its launch. Its speed and animal welfare advances have cemented its position as the flagship of the world’s livestock fleet. “The ‘Becrux’ doesn’t just exceed the industry standard in terms of voyage success rates - the sheep and cattle on board the Becrux arrive at their destination in better condition than aboard any other vessel,” said Wellard Rural Exports Managing Director Steve Meerwald.
