The order includes two Perry™ XLX 200 horsepower, 4,000 meter Work Class
ROV systems and one Sub-Atlantic™
Forum’s ROV systems are scheduled for delivery this year. New Orient Marine’s new build, multi-purpose ice-class vessel has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures as low as minus 30 degrees Celsius. The first project for the new vessel will involve subsea intervention, inspection, maintenance and underwater welding of existing gas pipeline systems.
The award demonstrates Forum’s capability for working with our customers to provide solutions tailored to their specific needs. It also validates our strategy of providing ongoing first class engineering as well as after-market support and service to offshore contractors from our operating centres in key regions. For New Orient Marine, the after-sales support will be provided from our established team based in Singapore.”
A spokesperson for New Orient Marine remarked, “Adding the equipment from Forum on-board the vessel, will increase substantially its versatility and operational range, rendering it a very attractive vessel for a broad number of potential clients and projects.”
