The two CSOVs (commissioning service operation vessels), ordered at Vard in July by a still-undisclosed buyer will have complete propulsion and maneuvering systems supplied by Brunvoll.
Each vessel will be equipped with the following Brunvoll solutions from aft to bow: two azimuth propulsion thrusters, a retractable azimuth thruster, a tunnel thruster, and a combined retractable azimuth and tunnel thruster. The scope of supply also features Brunvoll’s BruCon PTC propulsion and thruster control system,
The azimuth propulsion thrusters are equipped with Brunvoll’s latest energy-efficiency innovation, the DL1-nozzle, also known as the “Dragless”. While traditional nozzles experience an efficiency drop at transit speeds, the DL1 maintains favorable hydrodynamic characteristics across a broader operating range. More information about the nozzle and its features is available at www.brunvoll.no/news/the- dragless-nozzle.
The vessels are based on are based on the upgraded Vard 4 19 design, developed by Vard Design in Ålesund, Norway. and have following main particulars: length of 87.5 meters,
