Damen Shiprepair Amsterdam has actually finished the 10-day completely dry docking of sibling ships Oceanic Sirius and also Oceanic Vega.

For 8 of those days both, 106-meter vessels remained in the lawn’s 250-meter drydock no. 4 in a tandem setup.

The twin SX120 kind seismic research study vessels are advanced and also possessed by CGG Eidesvik Ship Management AS, a joint endeavor in between Eidesvik Offshore and also CGG. The contractor was Ulstein Verft in Norway.

The main factor for the check out to DSAm was to have a collection of repair services and also upgrades along with their hulls cleaned up and also painted. This consisted of upkeep on the prop nozzles of both vessels and also, by tenting the location around the props, DSAm had the ability to take on the job without disrupting or postponing the paintworks, aiding to decrease time invested at the lawn.

The 2 vessels left DSAm on the fourth November.

The jobs were managed by CGG Eidesvik Ship Management AS, a historical Damen customer.

“The crew and staff members from Oceanic Vega and Oceanic Sirius were pleased with the mutual cooperation and impressed by the quick response on several repair items related to the seismic equipment on board. The safety level and culture were also up to both parties’ expectations and standards,” stated an agent of the CGG Eidesvik group

Tjeerd Schulting, handling supervisor of DSAm, included: “When riding a tandem, one is steering and one is working the pedals. Only excellent team work will bring you quickly and safely over the finishing line.”
