The ship was shelter-deck type, had two main decks, and had its cargo space subdivided into eighteen main tanks and ten summer tanks which allowed for the carriage of up to 94,000 barrels of oil. The tanker had a cargo pump room located amidships with specially designed pumps to be able to unload her entire cargo in about twenty hours. In addition, the steamer was equipped with eight throttle reversing steam winches for quick loading and unloading of cargo from shelter deck spaces. She was also equipped with wireless apparatus, had submarine signal system installed and had electrical lights installed along the decks and in crew cabins.
