DOF Subsea has officially named its newest pipelay support vessel (PLSV) in a ceremony in Brazil.

The 139- by 28-metre vessel, which has been named Skandi Olinda, is owned by a joint venture of DOF Subsea and TechnipFMC.

It is the final one in a series of four PLSVs that have been ordered for work on an eight-year contract awarded by Petrobras in 2013.
