This innovative vessel is equipped with cutting-edge hybrid technology and gyro-stabilisation, marking a significant advancement in the region’s maritime industry.

The vessel has been specifically designed to improve efficiency and sustainability in offshore operations, offering significant advantages in crew transfer to oil platforms. Its hybrid propulsion system reduces fuel consumption, resulting in lower emissions and a smaller carbon footprint.
