New OESV contract

Østensjø Rederi has entered into a shipbuilding contract with the Spanish shipyard, Astilleros Gondan for the construction of an Ocean Energy Support Vessel (OESV).

The vessel is equipped to perform a wide range of operations within offshore energy, including Inspection, Maintenance, and Repair (IMR), construction, walk-to-work/flotel services, and cable laying. Its versatile design ensures that the vessel can operate across multiple segments within the ocean space, ensuring efficiency and operational flexibility.

The vessel’s design and technology will ensure low-emission operations without compromising performance. The newbuild will be equipped with battery power hybrid propulsion system, coupled with other energy-saving equipment such as heat recovery systems to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the vessel’s design is prepared for low carbon technology in the future.

The Salt-designed vessel will be 120 meters long with a beam of 23 meters. It will have a capacity to accommodate 180 people in high-standard daylight cabins.

Delivery of the vessel is scheduled for second half of 2027.
