| Due to demands
for a cost effective multi purpose high speed response/standby vessel
OWPMS have placed an order with South Boats Special Projects for a 12m
GRP catamaran. This vessel will mirror our current configuration
enabling it to carry 12 pax, but being lighter will attain speeds of
30kts replacing the RIB concept. The vessel will retain all the sea
keeping abilities of our 15.5m aluminium vessels and is not designed as
a replacement to such vessels. These new vessels are designed to offer
the client a more cost effective solution on sites requiring multiple
vessels for O&M as well as construction where a fast response vessel is
required to convey equipment and passengers. These new vessels will be
more fuel efficient, important during these days of high fuel costs and
will emit lower carbon emissions. For further details please call us to
discuss your requirements. |
