This will be Floatel's fourth accommodation semi-submersible with Keppel FELS after the delivery of two other units in 2010 and one in 2011.
The new semi-submersible will be equipped with dynamic positioning (DP) 3 capability to meet stringent rules and regulations for worldwide operations including the Norwegian sector.
When completed, the semi-submersible will be able to house 440 persons in single bed cabins. The vessel is ideal for construction support during new construction, maintenance activities or for decommissioning projects of offshore oil and gas installations.
“Keppel-built and designed accommodation semis have proven their worth wherever they have been deployed. We look forward to provide yet another highly capable accommodation semi to Floatel safely, on time and within budget,” said Wong Kok Seng, managing director of Keppel FELS.
