Rolls-Royce has secured orders worth over $161.3m
Rolls-Royce has secured orders worth over 100m ($161.3m) to supply propulsion systems for offshore construction and drilling vessels to be built at shipyards in Asia. The ships will be built for owners including Sea Drill, Pacific Drilling, Noble, Ocean Rig and Pride, according to Rolls-Royce.
Our in-depth understanding of the demanding offshore industry and our proven technology ensures that our integrated propulsion systems are industry leading and meet the extraordinary demands placed on them, said Anders Almestad, president of Rolls-Royce.
The orders include options to supply additional thrusters. The ships will feature multiple thrusters used for propulsion and to maintain their position during drilling operations.
