FJORD

The “FJORD”, built in 2000, is a large specialized semi-submersible heavy transport barge.

This semi-submersible barge can be used in a number of specific roles such as the transport of offshore drilling rigs, oil production platforms, floating production, storage and offloading units (FPSOs) and other exceptionally heavy cargoes. Further this unit is also suitable for float over installation of topsides.

The “FJORD” is a one-of-a-kind in our fleet and with this unit in operation, we are in an excellent position to deliver the full package on our salvage and wreck removal projects. Capable of loading refloated wrecks and/or ship sections in once and transport them entirely abroad.
The “FJORD” has excellent stability and seagoing characteristics. She is our state-of-the-art semi-submersible heavy transport barge with 6.000 square meters of deck area, at 25 tons/m2, large accommodation, store crane and lots of (mooring) winches.

Due to her ‘sternless’ design she can accommodate overhang on stern and has a deadweight capacity of 24,500 tons.
