Mermaid Marine Australia (MMA) has taken delivery of a new 5,965kW AHTS, 'Mermaid Vision'.
This vessel is equipped to provide MMA's traditional construction support to clients as well as to work as an AHTS for offshore drilling operations.
The Chairman of MMA, Tony Howarth said that the 'Mermaid Vision' was built at Dry Docks World Shipyard in Batam, Indonesia.
"The vessel has Dynamic Positioning Class 2 (DP II) which… enables it to support a number of offshore operations that cannot be carried out on conventional offshore vessels," said Mr Howarth. The 'Mermaid Vision' has been chartered for over 180 days to support a major offshore oil and gas construction project in the northwest of Western Australia working directly for a large multinational construction company. The vessel is currently mobilising in Singapore to commence this contract.
MMA's banking partner, the National Australia Bank, is supplying the debt facility for the 'Mermaid Vision'.
