Optimarin reports that its USCG-approved ballast water treatment (BWT) technology will be aboard the Norwegian Polar Institute’s new research vessel Kronprins Haakon, due to be christened by Fincantieri next week.
MSC Cruises and Fincantieri announced the signing of a memorandum of agreement (MOA) for the construction of four ultra-luxury cruise ships for a total value in excess of EUR 2 billion.
At a press conference Tuesday, Fincantieri CEO Guiseppe Bono expressed continued hope for the creation of what he has dubbed an "Airbus of the Seas" - a tie-up for naval shipbuilding with France's Naval Group.
