Shipbuilding

VARD has secured a new contract for the design and construction of one stern trawler for Norwegian Havbryn AS.

Equipped with three turntables, she will offer a power cable-laying capacity of 23,000 tonnes

Multraship Towage & Salvage held a Christening ceremony on 30 May to name their newest tug Multratug 35 at their home port of Terneuzen, the Netherlands.

Five new vessels will have joined the fleet between 2020 and 2025

The vessels, the first of their kind, have been designed to provide low emission crew transfer services to the offshore wind sector.

The two five-year agreements cover the 'Hamayu' and 'Soleil' ferries and provide remote 24/7 support in case of need.

The first of twelve new hybrid high-speed ferries designed by Incat Crowther for Italian ferry operator Liberty Lines have exceeded performance expectations during sea trials and will soon begin servicing Liberty Lines’ routes between Sicily and nearby islands.

The new vessels will feature four highspeed hydrogen dual fuel engines, designed to minimise NOx and CO2 emissions.

The hybrid system is particularly suitable for the load profile of the harbour tug: it enables very precise manoeuvring and a strong bollard pull when the full power is used.

The project involves replacing an engine and existing systems with a new shore-charged electrical system
