Teknotherm is excited to announce that the company has been awarded the contract to finalise the HVAC systems for RoPax ferry - HONFLEUR.

Back in 2017, Brittany Ferries had placed the order for the HONFLEUR vessel, at the Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellshaft’s (FSG) shipyard in Germany. However, when FSG went bankrupt in 2019, its Norwegian owner, Siem Shipping (Siem Group) signed a contract with Fosen Yard, in Norway, to complete the project.

Teknotherm gets HVAC contract for HONFLEUR

HONFLEUR, now named newbuilding 93, was designed to become a 187.4 metres LNG-fuelled RoPax ferry

HONFLEUR, now named newbuilding 93, was designed to become a 187.4 metres LNG-fuelled RoPax ferry. The 42,000 gt vessel can carry up to 1,680 passengers, with 261 individual cabins and has a 2,600 lane metre freight deck, with a capacity of 130 freight trucks or 550 passenger cars, and 64 trucks.

Now that the ship has been moved to Norway for completion, Fosen Yard awarded Teknotherm the contract to finalise the HVAC systems for the vessel.

Original HVAC contract cancelled

The original contract to supply the HVAC systems was awarded to sister company, Drews Marine, based in Germany, in 2017, but this contract was cancelled, when FSG Shipyard went bankrupt.

Fortunately, Fosen Yard could rely on another HVAC specialist, within the Heinen & Hopman Group, in order to finalise the project in Norway.
