Project 164-PT is an inland dry cargo vessel designed for the carriage of bulk and general cargoes — including grain, fertilizers, steel, and timber — as well as ISO containers. The vessel features an aft-engine room layout and an elastically mounted (shock-absorbed) superstructure to ensure high standards of crew comfort. The design is optimized for operations on European inland waterways.

The project followed an international production model: Russian shipyards specialized in the construction of "naked" hulls for subsequent delivery to Dutch customers. Sea Tech provided comprehensive workshop documentation and production data (lofting) developed via Sea Solution and Sea Solid CAD/CAM systems. Final outfitting and wheelhouse installation were carried out at outfitting yards in the Netherlands.
