Ship history

In the summer of 2007, the Factoria Naval Marin (FNM) shipyard (now: Astilleros NODOSA) signed a contract for the construction of two 80-metre long X-BOW® ships, Esvagt Stavanger and Esvagt Bergen. These two units were to perform the job of the three other ships. Both vessels are operating for Equinor.

The Esvagt Bergen is constructed in accordance with standby rules and can operate as a standby/rescue vessel for 320 survivors.
