NKT has placed an order for a new cable-laying vessel with Norwegian shipyard Vard.
It follows the company’s announcement in May 2023 that it was investing in a new high-voltage factory on the existing site in Karlskrona as well as the ship.

The vessel will be designed by the Norwegian company Salt Ship Design AS and will be built in parallel with NKT expanding its site in Karlskrona, Sweden.
Both assets are expected operational from 2027.
