Two new vessels delivered to ESVAGT – within the same week

Summer holidays are far from ESVAGT's programme as they enter July.

On Wednesday, the new build, ’Esvagt Dana’, was delivered by Zamakona Shipyard in Bilbao, and on Thursday, ESVAGT took ownership of the H-053 new build from Cemre Shipyard in Turkey. This means that ESVAGT starts the summer with two new vessels – both delivered in the same week – and a fleet of 43 vessels in total:

"Two newly built vessels underline ESVAGT’s continued ambition for organic growth within both the offshore wind and offshore oil/gas sectors," says ESVAGT’s CEO, Kristian Ole Jakobsen.

The new builds are an SOV (Service Operation Vessel), which will be assigned to GE on the Merkur Offshore Wind Farm in the German sector of the North Sea, and an MPV (Multi Purpose Vessel), which will service Hess’ oil/gas production in the Danish sector. Both vessels will enter charter over the summer.

"The two new builds will help to strengthen ESVAGT’s position in both the offshore wind and the offshore oil/gas markets. We continue our trusted partnership with Hess on a 10 year contract, and with an SOV for GE, we now have service vessels on contract with three major, leading wind turbine manufacturers," says Kristian Ole Jakobsen.
