The fruit juice tanker Premium Do Brasil has four insulated holds like a typical refrigerator ship but without tween decks with high load compartments equipped. In the front cargo area there are four floor-to-ceiling stainless steel tanks for the transport of orange juice, which is driven at a temperature of 0 ° C. In the other three holds there are also four stainless steel tanks each, which can be operated with orange juice concentrate at a temperature of −10 ° C. The ship can transport a total of 37,000 t of orange juice or orange juice concentrate in the tanks. The tanks and the lines are filled with nitrogen when empty; the areas for orange juice concentrate are then run at a temperature of −10 ° C.
