Additionally, a Gas Detection System for CO2 and Propane detection is included in the scope of supply.  
These two vessels are the 18th and 19th in PC's present fleet equipped and protected by Consilium and historically, the 25th and 26th including the earlier dismissed ships. They were constructed at Monfalcone Shipyard and are scheduled to be delivered in Spring 2013 and Spring 2014, respectively.
