Netherlands-based Vroon Offshore Services has taken delivery of VOS Sugar, a 68-metre subsea support vessel for offshore work, including wind farms.
The vessel was handed over 2 February 2016 at Fujian Southeast Shipbuilding in China.
VOS Sugar has started her journey to the North Sea and, after arrival in Europe, will be further outfitted and available for the 2016 subsea season.
She will be operated by Vroon Offshore Services Den Helder.
VOS Sugar (pictured) is a DP2, SPS-coded ship and the first of two newbuild SSVs being built at Fujian.
Sister vessel, VOS Star, will be delivered to Vroon later this year.
The vessels are fitted with active heave-compensated crane and one retractable plus one super-silent tunnel bow thruster, enhancing DP performance, fuel efficiency and crew/client wellbeing.
