Ulstein Verft has delivered Nexans Electra, a DP3 cable‑laying vessel (CLV), to Nexans. The vessel further strengthens Nexans’ capacity to support the global energy transition by installing advanced subsea power and communication cable systems.

How can you be confident that a new vessel design will actually perform in rough seas and demanding operations? The answer lies in thorough verification, independent testing and documented performance. Recently, a new Ulstein design for a cable-laying vessel was tested in a large-scale ocean basin at SINTEF Ocean. The results delivered exactly what Ulstein seeks: confidence that the design performs as intended.

Ulstein Verft's yard number 322, the CSOV Genesis Sea, is about to conclude a successful sea trial, a major milestone in the newbuild project.

OMS Group, a leading provider of subsea digital infrastructure, has signed contracts with Ulstein, a world-renowned designer and builder of advanced offshore vessels, for the design and construction of two cable-laying vessels. 

At Ulstein Verft, the new year began with launching, lifting operations and docking of two offshore wind newbuilds. 

The hull for yard number 323 arrived at Ulstein Verft on 6 December 2025. This marks another milestone in the construction of our next-generation offshore wind service vessel, which is the tenth TWIN X-STERN CSOV since 2022. The vessel is based on Ulstein’s proven SX222 design platform. 

On 15 November 2025, Yard number 322 was successfully towed and positioned inside the dock hall at Ulstein Verft. The project is progressing according to plan, and key activities are now underway.

On 13 November 2025, the Nexans Electra cable laying vessel (CLV) was positioned quayside at Ulstein Verft, marking a major milestone in the vessel’s journey towards completion. During its time at Ulstein Verft, the vessel has been in a roofed, controlled environment, ensuring optimal conditions for work environment and precision painting.

The shipbuilding construction of Nexans Electra is approaching its final phase in the dock, before the comprehensive work continues quayside ahead of sea trials in spring 2026. How do you organise a staff of hundreds of workers, subcontractors and suppliers over several months to deliver the project on time and within budget?
