Optima probes ro-ro market with new ferry designs

摘要

The development of the Fosen Optima design is aimed at freight ferry customers. The new vessels will develop the experience gained from the Stena Seabridger class ferry designs.rnNorwegian shipbuilder Bergen Group Fosen, successor to Fosen Mek Verksteder, is seeking to secure fresh business in the ro-ro domain on a competitive footing by launching a series of designs with a common root and concept. Representing the further development of the Fosen Optima design, and dubbed the Optima Model Line 2009, the offering of ro-pax and ro-ro freight vessel variants encapsulates a flexible, optimised design approach with the accent on efficiency as regards both capacity and fuel consumption.
