Bellinger completes first 210' OSV spec vessel

摘要

Bollinger Shipyards Inc., Lockport, La., completed sea trials in late April on the first of eight new steel supply boats being built on spec. The first five will be 210'×56'×18', and three others will measure 234'×56'×18'.rn"We've had a lot of interest in the boat," said Robert Socha, the yard's vice president, marketing and sales.rnDesigned in-house, Bollinger originally planned to build 10 of the DP-2 OSVs when the program was announced last year. Since then, the number has been scaled back to eight, but Socha said that more than eight could still be built. "That number could change," he said. "But no, it won't go down."
