VOS Passion is a PX121-type platform supply vessel, and the fourth of six such vessels being built at the Cosco Shipyard for the Dutch offshore vessel owner Vroon Offshore. All vessels are featuring the X-BOW® design to provide high comfort for crew and smoother vessel movements in harsh conditions. Once delivered, all PX121s will operate under management of Vroon Offshore Services.

The PSV complies with ABS class requirements for dynamic-positioning system Class II (DPS-2) and reduced noise and vibration to satisfy a Comfort-Class notation. With a length of 83.4 metres and a beam of 18 metres, the vessel provides 850 square metres deck space and a load capacity of 4,200 tonnes (dwt).

The naming ceremony for the PSV was held on 18 July, lady sponsor Mrs Mireille Vroon.

We wish VOS Passion and her crew safe and successful sailings.
