Norway: Havyard Group to Build PSV for Faroe Islands Supply Service


The Havyard Group has signed a contract with Faroe Islands-based Supply Service for an 86-metre Havyard 833 Platform Supply Vessel (PSV) plus one option. The first vessel is to be delivered in March 2012 and the optional vessel in June 2012.

The vessels are to be built at the Havyard Group’s shipyard Havyard Leirvik in Norway and will be NB 106 and 107. The contract price is approx NOK350 million (US$54 million) per vessel.

The Havyard 833 is a new PSV design, designed to carry many types of cargo, provide high levels of comfort for the crew and to minimise sea and air pollution. The vessel will also be equipped for oil recovery (NOFO 2009), stand-by/rescue services and fire fighting.
