USA: Saipem’s HOS Mystique Mobilized in Louisiana

Saipem America says HOS Mystique, its new 250ft, DP2 ROV support vessel is currently mobilized in Fouchon, LA and available for work immediately.

HOS Mystique is a US-flagged, Class II DP ROV support vessel with 4,354 square ft of usable deck area and a permanently installed 70 ton active heave compensated NOV knuckleboom crane. The vessel features two lounges, one gymnasium and private conference rooms along with accommodations for 50 personnel.

The configuration of HOS Mystique provides a large, stable platform for survey activities for offshore construction and subsea intervention tasks such as surveys, seabed topography and geophysical sampling, platform and pipeline inspections, touch down monitoring, light construction and well intervention work.

HOS Mystique features two heavy work class ROVs with the vessel spread. An Innovator Leviathan, a 250hp ROV and one Innovator, a 150Hp ROV, have been fully integrated into the vessel. The ROVS have the ability to handle a suite of support tools and large intervention packages, thus expanding the capabilities of the vessel for the clients use.
