The vessel designed by Skipsteknisk AS is designed for multipurpose offshore operations and has the designation ST-245 ESCV (Energy Subsea Construction Vessel). Skipsteknisk and REM have emphasized low energy consumption and emissions when developing the vessel. This has resulted in a vessel that uses only half of the energy compared to other equivalent vessels of the same tonnage, with the goal of net-zero emissions. This will be achieved through a combination of different measures like; dual-fuel engines running on methanol, battery packs, lifting-equipment with energy recovery and a highly efficient propulsion system from Brunvoll.

Our selection of Brunvoll reflects REM Offshore’s vision to use local suppliers to achieve a more sustainable and efficient maritime industry. We are impressed by how Brunvoll and Skipsteknisk have been able to optimize the solution for low energy consumption and emission”, says Ronny Pål Kvalsvik, Chief Commercial Officer at Rem Offshore AS
