The offshore vessels, based on the PX121 design, are scheduled for delivery in the first quarter of 2015.

Financial details of the deal were not disclosed.

Ulstein Verft currently has seven vessels on order. In total, the company has sold 20 designs of the PX121 design.

“PX121 has become a success, and many such ships have now been constructed at our own and at external yards,” commented Gunvor Ulstein, ceo of the company.

“Blue Ship Invest is an investment company within Ulstein Group, but as ship operation is not one of our focus areas, our plan is to sell these two vessels,” she added.
