Assuming that your barge weight was 500 long tons, lightship, and by 18 feet deep, you meant from the keel to the deck, you could theoretically load the barge with 8,439 metric tons, which would completely lower your deck to the waterline. If you wanted a draft of 9 feet then you could load 3,976 metric tons.

What is the mass of a typical barge?
It could be argues that there is no "typical" barge. Barges range in size from small ones used on canals to large floating "tubs" that are filled with grain or other cargo. But, fortunately, our friends at Wikipedia have a "related" answer: a typical barge measures 195 feet by 35 feet (59.4 meters by 10.6 meters), and can carry up to 1500 tons of cargo. The light tonnage (empty weight) was not given, but this barge might weigh in the neighborhood of 650 tons. Need a link? You got it.
