Kongsberg to Equip PGS’ New Ramform Titan Class Vessels

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) has awarded KONGSBERG (KOG) owned company Kongsberg Maritime contracts of more than 50 MUSD for technical systems delivery to two new Seismic survey vessels ordered by Petroleum Geo Services (PGS).

The scope of supply covers integrated navigation systems, Dynamic Positioning (DP) and thruster systems, and extensive back-deck handling systems for PGS Ramform Titan-class vessels 3 & 4. The delivery falls under Kongsberg Maritime’s so-called ‘Full Picture’ delivery strategy. The scope of supply mirrors previous deliveries for the MHI built PGS Ramform Titan-class vessels 1 & 2, which are due for delivery in 2013.

The Ramform Titan-class vessels 3 & 4 under this new contract were optioned by PGS in October 2012 and are scheduled for delivery in 2015 respectively.
