McDermott International, Inc. announces the christening of its Construction Support Vessel 108 (CSV 108) at Metalships & Docks shipyard in Vigo, Spain.
The shipyard hosted a naming ceremony attended by Tony Duncan, Executive Vice President, Subsea for McDermott and Manuel Rodr铆guez, Chairman of Metalships & Docks, SAU, local dignitaries and project staff.
鈥淲e expect the CSV108 to join the fleet in 2015, once the final deck equipment has been installed,鈥� said Duncan. 鈥淭he vessel will service the immediate needs of the subsea market as a construction support vessel, and should our client requirements for pipelay require additional capacity in the future, the versatility of CSV108 allows us to convert it for pipelay services.鈥�
CSV108 will immediately transit to Norway for the installation of two portside active heave compensated cranes for the final stage in its construction.
