Hi Nick, I used to work on two of those tugs when they were owned by Adsteam in Newcastle, as far as I know they aren't referred to as any Damen type like the 2411 or 3111's are, but I do have a Damen brochure with an article on them as they were built with some photographs of them as Radhwa 20 etc and the article refers to them as Stan Voith 3312. I never heard them referred to as such though. In Newcastle amongst the tug crews they were just referred to as the "Voiths"

Thank you very much guys for the help.

BR_Reef:
The tugs were nominated as the Damen StanVoith 3700 Class. Dutch built, with MAN main engines, these three tractors followed a similar trio with Deutz engines - DAMMAM 36, JEDDAH 4 & JEDDAH 5, built 1985 at Bibao by Astilleros y Talleres Celaya SA.
