The construction project of the cable lay vessel 'Nexans Aurora' has recently reached a new milestone, as the installation of the MAATS Tech equipment package including the carousel, loading arms, access tower and control cabin have now been completed.
All the abovementioned equipment are MAATS Tech Ltd deliveries, and employees from Maats have been working at the yard for several weeks for the installations and testing of the cable lay equipment.
The next milestone will be the heeling test. The 'Nexans Aurora' is due for delivery to Nexans this year, and her first assignments will be in the offshore wind segment.
Ulstein Group and Larsnes Mek. Verksted are working together to deliver 28 standard vessels for the Norwegian Navy. This marks the beginning of a close collaboration between two of Norway's most experienced and modern shipyards, aiming to deliver the future naval vessels.
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.
