Havyard, the Norwegian ship technology company, signed a contract to build a hybrid battery powered platform supply vessel (PSV) for the privately-owned Icelandic oil services company, Fafnir Offshore.
The vessel is going to be designed by Havyard Design and Solutions in Fosnavaag and will be constructed at Havyard Ship Technology`s yard in Leirvik in Sogn, Norway. The vessel will become newbuild number 126, has a contract value of just above NOK 350 million and is due to be delivered in July 2015.
The innovation onboard this vessel is that it is equipped with a hybrid battery powered diesel-electric propulsion system.
“When we develop a new ship design we have two main focal points”, says Arve Helsem Leine, Design Manager of Havyard Design & Solutions. “Those are the customer`s demands in relation to the ship`s operational needs and area of operation and also to use the latest accessible technology and research tools in order to make the ship as efficient as possible. We have invested a lot in our design philosophy and in our calculation tools and methods for testing. We also work closely with key suppliers in developing good solutions for our designs and hybrid battery power is a good example of this”, says Arve Helsem Leine.
