Siem Offshore Sells multi-purpose support vessel that can perform underwater tasks

Norwegian offshore vessel owner SiemOffshore said it had sold the multipurpose support vessel (MPSV) Siem Marlin toNigerian services company Marine Platform.

Siem Offshore did not disclose the sale price.

Siem Marlin, a 2009-built multipurpose field and remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) support vessel (MRSV), is expected to be delivered to its new owners this week.

The 93.6-meter vessel is equipped with a 100-ton heave compensated offshore/subsea crane and is specially designed for ROV and light construction duties. Furthermore, thanks to its low fuel consumption, this vessel can reduce emission to the environment. Low noise in hull and superstructure ensure excellent sea-keeping and high comfort for the crew and personnel.
