Green Yard Kleven will rebuild two Offshore Ships
The Brazilian shipping company Oceanica has signed a conversion contract with Green Yard Kleven. The assignment consists of converting two PSV offshore vessels for operations with ROV and offshore crane.
"It was a good and happy start after the holidays that we secured this contract, says Hans Jørgen Fedog", CEO of Green Yard Kleven.
After the conversion, the ship will go on a mission in Brazil in deep water. Brazilian Oceanica specializes in inspection, intervention and monitoring of underwater structures offshore.
Cooperation with Marin Teknikk
The ships in question have recently been purchased by Oceanica. One is already at Green Yard Kleven, and the other will arrive at the yard in the next few days. Both skips have Marin Teknikk design MT6009.
"The contract has been created in close collaboration with Marin Teknikk AS, and they will now work with design and engineering on the conversion project. Over the years, the shipyard has built dozens of ships in collaboration with Marin Teknikk, and appreciates that the good collaboration continues", Karl Johan Barstad, Sales Manager Retrofit in Green Yard Kleven.
Sustainable solutions
Green Yard Kleven and Oceanica both invest heavily in sustainable solutions. Among other things, equipment will be reused in the project. For example, the offshore cranes are used and will be rebuilt to the current specification and to the right delivery time.
"There are many advantages to rebuilding existing vessels, using recycled material and reusing equipment for the conversions. This will save resources and reduce both costs, emissions and the amount of waste. Without compromising quality", says Karl Johan Barstad.
The renovations are scheduled to be completed towards the end of the year, and work will start immediately.
"This was good news for us. The assignment increases our order reserve, although we still have the capacity to take on more projects. We thank you for the trust and the assignment and look forward to the cooperation with all parties involved in the project", concludes Hans Jørgen Fedog.
