Intership has ordered two vessels from Turkey's Sefine Shipyard
Intership has ordered two vessels from Turkey´s Sefine Shipyard. The vessels are designed by Salt Ship Design. The shipbuilding contracts with Sefine have been facilitated by shipbroker MIL Shipping. These well boats are specially developed to treat farmed salmon for lice and amoebic gill disease (AGD) using large quantities of fresh water produced onboard.
The vessels will have well capacities of 6 500 m3 and 4 000 m3 and, in addition to serving as ordinary well boats, they will, once delivered, be among the leading treatment assets in the industry. The vessels will have hybrid propulsion systems, including substantial battery power, which meet the highest environmental standards and are outfitted with cutting edge equipment. Both are due for delivery during Q3 2024, with the larger vessel contracted on a long term basis to a major salmon farming company.
Intership currently has another two vessels under construction at Spain’s Zamakona yard, with the first one due for completion in Q3 2022 and the second in Q2 2023. Both these vessels are also contracted to salmon farmers from delivery.
