Sea1 Offshore orders offshore support vessels in China

The newly ordered vessels will be 120 meters long, with a cargo deck of 1,400 square meters.

Each ship will feature a 250-tonne deck crane and provide accommodations for up to 120 personnel. Both vessels will be equipped with an ROV hangar and a moonpool.

The vessels wil be methanol ready and the generators can run on 100% biofuel. When the two newbuilds are delivered in 2027, Sea1 will own a fleet of 19 modern offshore vessels.

Bernt Omdal, CEO of Sea1, said the investment is a consequence of the company's growth strategy, and will help to strengthen the company's position as a leading supplier of services to the energy sector offshore worldwide.

Sea1 Offshore and Cosco Shipping are in discussion around future potential for further new building vessels.
