Platform Supply (PSV)

Ulstein Digital, a newly established subsidiary of Ulstein Group, has officially joined Veracity by DNV’s partner network. The partnership enables seamless integration between Ulstein’s data platform and Veracity by DNV, automatically transferring validated MRV (Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification) data into DNV’s verification service. This automation significantly reduces manual workload, saving time and resources for maritime operators.

4 June 2025: Megamas Resources announced a ship design contract with Norway-based Ulstein Design & Solutions AS to start the engineering phase on a fibre-optic cable-laying vessel (CLV) planned to be built at the Lloyd Werft Bremerhaven GmbH. 

The total number of walk-to-work (w2w) vessel designs and redesigns by Ulstein now count 22, of which 14 are currently in operation. In average, these vessels perform repair and maintenance on more than 5,000 turbines – every year! 
That makes a stunning 95,000+ gangway connections!

Three of Ulstein's designs are among the Work Boat World Awards 2024 winners. Tamhae 3 clinched the 'Best Large Research Vessel' award, Olympic Boreas was named 'Best CSOV', and JSD 6000 took home the 'Best Derrick Layer' accolade from Baird Maritime/Work Boat World. These awards celebrate the best vessels in their categories, judged on design, build quality, and functionality.

The collaboration between thyssenkrupp Marine Systems (tkMS) and Ulstein is a strategic boost for the Norwegian maritime industry, tkMS being one of four remaining contenders in a major maritime project. This is the only European alternative that includes building in Norway.

Olympic's latest CSOV, the 'Olympic Notos', has been operational for six months since her delivery, and the feedback is outstanding.

Subsea rock installation is essential for offshore projects, and for over twenty years, Ulstein Design & Solutions BV has been leading the way in vessel design.

In today's evolving maritime industry, ship owners encounter challenges and opportunities. What options do you have when markets are unpredictable? Sometimes it's all about striking that perfect balance.

"When a viral Drake Passage video surfaced showing huge swells crashing over the bow of Quark Expeditions' Ocean Explorer, it wasn't just the power of the Southern Ocean that made waves. 
The real star? The ship's cutting-edge X-BOW design."
