Each of the four barges has a load capacity of 5,000 tons and can carry the equivalent of 170 trucks per trip.

Transfluvial will transport more than 2 million tons of logs per year from the M'Bopicuá terminal in Río Negro to Punta Pereira in Colonia. To move this amount of wood, 500 trips by barge are necessary, while 100,000 trips by truck would be necessary. In terms of greenhouse gas emissions, the barge system emits 14,000 tons of CO2, while the truck system would emit more than 32,000 tons of CO2 per year.

The river transport system will employ 35 Uruguayan crew members.
