Keppel Singmarine delivers another AHTS on time

Singapore: Keppel Singmarine Pte Ltd, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Keppel Offshore & Marine Limited, has delivered an Anchor Handling Tug/Supply (AHTS) vessel to Gulfmark Offshore Inc (Gulfmark) on schedule.

The 140-tonne bollard pull vessel was christened Sea Cheyenne by Mrs Rex Carroll Ross, wife of Mr Rex Ross, Director of Gulfmark Offshore, at a naming ceremony on 27 October 2007.

This is the third of eight vessels which Keppel Singmarine is building for the company since 2003. The design of the vessels is developed by Marine Technology Development (MTD), the ship design and development arm of Keppel O&M. The five remaining vessels will be delivered in 2008.

Sea Cheyenne, which will be deployed in Vietnam, is the fourth vessel that Keppel Singmarine has delivered this year. The yard is expected to deliver one more vessel before the year ends.  [28/10/07]
