Northern Offshore Services Boosts Fleet with Two CTVs

Northern Offshore Services (NOS) has acquired two crew transfer vessels (CTV) from Sure Wind Marine Limited.

The CTVs SURE Diamond and SURE Dynamic are being renamed to M/V Master and M/V Mariner and will be part of the M-Class series, which now has four vessels.

According to NOS, the vessels will continue their current operations on offshore wind farms in Germany.

“We are grateful to further extend this vessel series with two more vessels. We believe that this will truly strengthen our marketing position, and this will allow NOS to further provide our customer with the best possible service,” said David Kristensson.

“We have seen great results from our two first M-CLASS vessels and now we gladly welcome Master and Mariner to our fleet.”

In April, NOS revealed it had acquired two CTVs from Rix Shipping, which became part of the M-Class series.

The M-Class series are 27-meter high-speed offshore support vessels, equipped with Controllable Pitch Propellers.

The 2 x MAN engines combined with the CPP enable the vessels to achieve a speed of 27 knots, the company said. Accommodation is available for six crew members.
