Multifunctional scientific research

Outfitted with a Hybrid Propulsion system this vessel optimises energy consumption. The vessel is a secure and comfortable working platform for crew and scientists. Equipped with state of the art scientific research systems, AUVs and ROVs  for detailed geographic and environmental mapping of the oceans, the vessel is capable of gathering all important data that is needed to decide location of new Offshore Wind Parks.

Modern Research vessel with AUV /ROV are increasingly complex, performing high complexity work under more demanding conditions. Their overall performance is therefore crucial for progress and sustainability. Kongsberg addresses these challenges through smarter future proof integration between all systems onboard, robust system design and efficiencies that both reduce cost and enhance performance.

KONGSBERG's solution for Research vessel with AUV /ROV operations is designed to improve its performance, increasing efficiency, lowering costs, improving safety and reducing the environmental footprint. Better integration of solutions can enable reduced time for installation, commissioning and testing.

Integration of our state of the art Propulsion units, Engines, Deck Machinery and Control and Safety Systems will reduce a number of cost elements for a diving support vessel.

• Shipyard will save engineering hours, interface meetings, cabling and installation work, and over all reduce the risk in the project
• Ship designers will be able to tailor their solutions for specific designs and customer requirements together with KONGSBERG. An integrated solution will free up space and reduce weight. This is valid for winches, LARS systems electrical systems and control systems at bridge
• Owner and operators will reduce OPEX regards to efficient diving support operations. A proven life cycle management system for the delivered solution will in the long run save cost and increase visibility for the uptime of your asset.
