push navigation
bron: Lexicon Scheepvaart & Transport [Kluijven]
duwvaart = push navigation; duwboot = pushboat, pushing boat
Technisch Woordenboek Scheeps- Regel- Installatietecniek [Delévaque] geeft 'push-tow navigation', en voor duwboot 'pusher tug' met als synoniemen 'pusher boat', 'pusher', push-boat', 'pushing tug'.
Ik zou het zelf houden op 'push navigation'.

A slight variation on Jack's answer. I think the word 'tugs' could be used here instead of 'navigation'. It's a clearer expression of what kind of vessels are involved.
