Vessel Information:

During this yard-stay in Singapore 2014 we replaced the old Valmarin XD system.

“The recent upgrade was done at the Sembawang shipyard in Singapore, and the 6-month yard stay has been challenging period for both our project team and vessel crew. We have upgraded the vessel’s main propulsion systems, including an additional engine room with two new auxiliary engines, new main propellers, new gears and an electrical boost drive and automation system which increase the vessel’s overall propulsion redundancy and towing capacity (its bollard pull) to around 220+ tonnes.”

The system consist of:

• Integrated Machinery Automation system
• Power Management System
• Aux engines Safety Systems
• Clutch Control System
• Seismic Compressor Control System
• GMR Playback
• Høglund Remote Control, for remote service and support
