The platforms located at mooring-deck are mainly used in mooring operations and are destined for use on board the owner’s two Ulstein Design type SX124 vessels “Polarcus Nadia” and “Polarcus Naila”.
The newbuildings are technically-advanced 3D seismic vessels capable of towing up to 12 streamers. They will each feature two MacGREGOR hydraulically-operated platforms designed and manufactured to the shape of the surrounding shell plating and delivered with pre-assembled coaming and ready tested in workshop. In open position, the platforms are supported by preventer stays and designed to carry a load of 500 kg.
The vessels are planned to enter service by the end of this year.
