Farstad Shipping has ordered a subsea/IMR vessel from Vard, though the hull will be built outwith Noway at Vard’s Tulcea yard in Romania and then towed to the Langsten yard at Tomrefjord for fitting out.
The VARD 3 07 class unit is designed for subsea and IMR (inspection, maintenance and repair) duties too. It will be identical to the vessel ordered in February. This further order is part of the Norwegian company’s expansion into the subsea market.
