The Spanish Shipyard C.N.P. FREIRE, S.A. has delivered a new Maintenance Support Vessel to the British company Briggs Marine, following the award of the contract in December 2022.
The vessel, designed by Cintranaval in collaboration with Freire Shipyard’s design department, has been conceived to support Briggs Marine’s contracts with the UK Government, as well as offshore wind farms and commercial ports. With a length of 40 meters and DP-2 diesel-electric propulsion, its primary role will be the inspection, maintenance and replacement of aids to navigation (AtoN) and heavy inshore moorings, both in the UK and overseas. In addition, it will carry out, survey, diving and ROV operations, and offshore project and maintenance support operations.
This project reinforces Freire Shipyard’s ability to offer advanced solutions to the international market and supports Briggs Marine’s leadership in the UK maritime sector.
