Rederij Groen Takes ‘7-Stars’

Maaskant Shipyards Stellendam, part of the Damen Group, has delivered the Seismic Research Support vessels ‘7-Stars’  to offshore support service provider Rederij Groen.

The 7-Stars will join Rederij Groen’s fleet of almost 30 vessels, which notably includes sister vessels of the same series 7-Oceans and 7-Seas. The three vessels, designed in close cooperation with both Rederij Groen and their customer, mark a milestone in Offshore Support Vessel construction.

The two companies have a relationship that stretches back more than a decade. According to Damen, all of Rederij Groen’s five Seismic Research Support vessels have been built at Maaskant.

“This really is a proud day for all the team at Maaskant,” commented Maaskant Shipyards Director Frits van Dongen at the ceremony. “And of course we look forward to maintaining and servicing Rederij Groen’s fleet in the future.”
