Subsea 7 Orders New Dive Support Vessel from Hyundai Heavy (South Korea)

Subsea 7 has signed a contract to build a new Dive Support Vessel (DSV). The new vessel will be delivered in 2015. This state-of-the-art vessel will be built by Korean company Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI), one of the world’s largest ship building companies.

The vessel will reinforce our leading diving capabilities with one of the world’s largest DSV fleets, and enable us to continue to serve our clients in an efficient, cost-effective and safe manner on many future projects.

This will be the third new-build DSV to join the Subsea 7 fleet in recent years, having taken delivery of the Seven Atlantic in 2010 and Seven Havila in 2011.
