Northern Offshore Services (N-O-S) has taken delivery of the world’s first 100% biomethanol-powered crew transfer vessel (CTV), chartered by Vestas.
M/V Transporter, designed, developed and provided by N-O-S, is a conversion from A-Class to T-class.
The vessel is a 25-meter, high-speed catamaran with an updated and improved hull design, 24 pax seating, specially designed for fast and reliable transfer of technicians and light cargo.
