“The dual crane capacity of 15,000 tm enables us to continue installing the largest and heaviest fixed and floating structures to date. The,” the company said. “New J-Lay tower and deepwater lowering construction means we can install pipelines and structures from 200 – 3,500 meters water depth with a maximum of 32in outer diameter.”

The 220m-long vessel will have a maximum speed of 20 knots, up to four times the speed of its current deepwater

construction vessels. “The high speed capacity of the new vessel will dramatically cut travel time between projects and provide our clients with more productivity in a broader range of geographic areas,” the company said.

The ship will hold 550 people. The payload is 25,000 tonnes and the power generation capacity will be 75 MW. The Dynamic positioning station keeping system will be NMD Class III.

The company said that the vessel’s design and speed will make offshore construction in the Arctic feasible. The placement of the cranes, the J-Lay tower and other installation equipment, as well as the structural quality of the hull and thrusters, are well suited for the Arctic, HMC said.

HMC is planning to order cranes, key components and the J-Lay Tower, over the next few months.
