Wärtsilä will design the ship, in addition to will present all Class and Flag Authority associated drawings and preparations wanted for the mandatory approvals and certifications. These will even present the idea for future extra detailed engineering previous to the constructing of the ship.
“This new series of vessels represents a new generation of krill fishing solutions and we are grateful to Wärtsilä for producing a design that fully meets our needs. For fishing in the harsh and sensitive waters of the Antarctic, the ship’s design must be reliable, safe and environmentally sound.
