The vessel, designed by Salt Ship Design, is prepared for the installation of zero-emission hydrogen technology, based on funding from Enova SF, a Norwegian government enterprise responsible for promoting environmentally friendly production and energy consumption.

The 88.3-metre CSOV has an accommodation capacity for 120 people (93 technicians and 27 crew members), a 3D motion-compensated gangway with a maximum range of 30 metres for personnel transfer, a 3D offshore crane, and an integrated elevator with a capacity of up to 26 persons.

This is the third in a series of six vessels designed to transfer technical personnel for the commissioning and maintenance of offshore wind farms.
