Forum Energy Technologies Receives Order From New Orient Marine
Forum Energy Technologies has received an order from New Orient Marine Pte to supply three remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) for its multi-purpose ice-class vessel currently under construction in Singapore.
The order includes two Perry XLX 200 horsepower, 4,000m Work Class ROV systems and one Sub-Atlantic Comanche 3,000m Observation Class ROV. Forum will also provide operation and maintenance training for New Orient Marine’s personnel, as well as on board support during the ROV mobilisation.
Forum’s ROV systems are scheduled for delivery this year. New Orient Marine’s new build, multi-purpose ice-class vessel has been designed to operate in ambient temperatures as low as -30°C. The first project for the new vessel will involve subsea intervention, inspection, maintenance and underwater welding of existing gas pipeline systems.
