According to a statement by the owner, the vessel will strengthen Britoil's commitment to expanding its global reach and delivering excellence in the offshore industry.

"The Britoil Journey", the company said, "incorporates a diesel-electric propulsion system and a range of energy-saving features, making it of unparalleled fuel efficiency. Equipped with Dynamic Positioning 2, the versatile 610 sqm deck PSV offers a safe and fit-for-purpose solution to meeting the shipowner's energy clients' requirements."

Britoil, and its founder David Hill, know Ulstein very well through the two previous vessels they had in their fleet of the ULSTEIN PX121 design, these vessels were recently sold to Fugro.

The Britoil Journey was originally ordered by the Hong Kong-based Kuma Shipping in 2013 and later bought by Vallianz before Britoil now took ownership of the vessel.
