Aquaculture DSV

Workships Contractors, the Netherlands-headquartered manager of the four point mooring Diving Support Vessel, ‘Offshore Beaver’, has announced that the vessel has been sold to Seisund AS of Torangsvag, Norway.

The vessel will transfer from her normal role of diving support to working in the Norwegian aquaculture industry. Workships Contractors has managed the vessel since 2014, obtaining contracts in nearshore projects in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany and Denmark providing diving, salvage and ROV support.

Mr. Edvard Bakke of Seisund states “with regulatory changes coming into the farmed salmon industry, we were looking for a suitable vessel to allow us to respond to the changes and maintain our leading position in the industry.” “We contacted Arthur van Loon of Van Loon Maritime Services BV (www.vlmaritime.com), to start sourcing a suitable vessel and within a few short weeks we have taken ownership and the vessel is repainted into our house colours. The vessel will be renamed ‘Seisund’ and will join the eight other vessels in our fleet”

Workships Contractors BV was founded in 1988 in Rotterdam as the structure to operate the DP III Dive Support Semi-Submersible ‘Amethyst’. Since that time Workships has performed as a vessel management company operating in all aspects of the offshore industry.
