Norwegian shipbuilder Ulstein Verft AS claimed it has actually safeguarded an agreement from Norway- based Olympic to construct 2 Construction Service Operation Vessels (CSOVs), with alternatives for 2 added vessels.
The vessels, which are based upon the ULSTEIN SX222 style with double X-STERN from Ulstein Design & &(* )AS, will certainly be 89.6 meters long with a 19.2-meter beam of light, able to fit 126 individuals in 91 cabins. Solutions will certainly have hybrid battery propulsion and also will certainly be gotten ready for methanol gas to make it possible for no discharges.Each CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER,
Olympic Group’s øy, claimed, Stig Rem has actually formerly constructed 6 vessels at “The TWIN X-STERN is a smart concept, optimized for low energy consumption. During operation, the offshore wind service vessels stay positioned at the turbines most of the time, and with the main propellers fore and aft, these vessels will reduce the energy requirement to a new level when on DP.
“As a shipowner in the Norwegian maritime cluster, it is important for us to invest in this cluster. With a shipyard, ship designer, suppliers and Vartdal Invest as a co-investor, this is a project with a strong local ownership.”
Olympic and also was the initial consumer of Ulstein Verft & &Ulstein Design Solutions claimed
“We are excited to be working with Olympic again, an important and innovative player in the Norwegian maritime cluster and a company that we have had the pleasure of working with for many years, through many complex and successful projects,”, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER inCathrine Kristiseter MartiUlstein Group vessels are powered by diesel-electric propulsion with variable rate in mix with big battery power storage space systems.
“With the current challenging economic and political climate, these contracts are a result of a pragmatic and good cooperation between the parties, where both parties have gone to great lengths to find good and viable solutions.”
The vessels are gotten ready for methanol gas and also have offered area for added battery capability for full-electric repowering when the facilities for such is offered.The & &
Ulstein Power AS is acquired to supply an extensive power and also automation bundle, consisting of a huge battery supply.Control to the home builder, the hull form and also crossbreed propulsion system will certainly make certain high functional efficiencies and also seakeeping, and also considerably lowered ecological impact.
According claimed
“We have cooperated closely with Olympic in the details of this project and are very eager to start the newbuild project,” Lühr Lars, handling supervisor ofOlsen Ulstein Verft.
