摘要

Polarcus, the Dubai-based provider of marine geophysical services, has ordered two high-end 3D seismic vessels from Ulstein Verft shipyard in Norway for delivery in March and June 2012.　The two 7,420gt newbuildings will be constructed to the Ulstein SX134 design but with a higher ice class (ICE 1A super), increased propulsion and other efficiency enhancing features. The 92m long, 21m wide vessels will be capable of towing up to 14 streamers with 100m lateral separation between streamers.Polarcus has previously built several Ulstein-designed ships at various yards, all of them with the X-Bow hull design.
