Environship wins new order

摘要

Ordered by Norwegian company Eidsvaag and scheduled for delivery in 2013, the NVC-401 LNG-powered forage carrier is the second order to be placed for a vessel from Rolls-Royce's award-winning Environship range. Compared with similar diesel-powered ships, carbon dioxide emissions are claimed to be up to 40 lower. This gas-powered ship will carry pelletised fish feed in bulk for aquaculture feeds producer Skretting, serving fish farms along the Norwegian coastline. STX OSV in Brattvag, western Norway, has been chosen to complete the vessel, but the hull will be sourced from STX's yard in Romania.
