Fugro Takes Delivery of Newbuild Survey Vessel

July 31, 2012

Fugro takes delivery of 'Fugro Equator' the third such vessel for offshore survey projects in Asia-Pacific waters

Designed to Fugro specifications and fitted with the latest survey equipment all three are among the most advanced vessels of their type.

The new vessel will have permanently mobilised geophysical and hydrographic survey spreads, and will be able to carry out the full range of site and route survey tasks to obtain the high resolution data necessary for safe, efficient and cost-effective planning, design and engineering activities for offshore projects.

When needed, an AUV for deep water site investigations can quickly be mobilised.

Fugro Equator is part of the Netherlands' company Fugro global vessel replacement schedule with the objective of removing older tonnage from the fleet and meeting stringent industry safety standards.
