Steel-cutting and keel-laying ceremonies for the vessels took place occurred at Crist hull yard in Poland
Two Ulstein-designed newbuild vessels under construction for Bernhard Schulte Offshore have reached important milestones.
The steel-cutting and keel-laying ceremonies for the commissioning service operation vessels (CSOV) yno 321 and 320, respectively, have occurred at the Crist hull yard, Poland.
Both CSOVs are characterised by the TWIN X-STERN feature, implementing fore and aft main propeller units for excellent dynamic positioning characteristics.
The hulls will be prepared at Crist before being towed to Ulstein Verft in Norway for the final phases, which include outfitting, paint work, electrical installation, equipment integration, commissioning and sea trial.
Matthias Muller, the Managing Director at Bernhard Schulte Offshore, said: “Its great to be here at the yard and to witness the birth of our two newbuildings.
“We look forward to the further construction progress of these remarkable offshore vessels planned for delivery in 2025.”
Lidvar Lillerovde is the project manager at Ulstein Verft and was also present on the occasion.
He said: "We are delighted to be here at Crist, together with Bernhard Schulte Offshore, to celebrate this important occasion for the two newbuilds. We look forward to continuing the excellent cooperation between the shipowner, the hull yard and Ulstein Verft yard for these vessels." |
