THE Mermaid Endurer, a multi-purpose dive support, remotely operated vehicle (ROV) support and light construction vessel, has just arrived at her home port of Aberdeen, where she has been toured by potential customers over the last three days.
The vessel is owned by Mermaid Offshore Services of Thailand with whom Aberdeen firm KD Marine has an alliance agreement, acting as lead contractor for work on the UK continental shelf.
After arriving at Aberdeen from a shipyard at Bergen, she will be available to the UKCS market very soon. The Mermaid Endurer has been specially designed for operations in severe weather conditions, with high manoeuvrability and station-keeping capabilities.
The ship has accommodation for 86 people.
