FOR ARCTIC WATERS

The two new designs, ULSTEIN SX133 and ULSTEIN SX134, are the first vessels with the ULSTEIN X-BOW ® to receive DNV’s ICE-1A class notation. This means they can operate in Arctic waters.

EQUIPMENT PACKAGE
The package from the Ulstein Group includes comprehensive deliveries of design and main equipment to the six vessels. Ulstein will also produce main switchboards as well as bridge and control room consoles. The vessels will be equipped with ULSTEIN IAS®, ULSTEIN COM IP®, ULSTEIN NAV® and ULSTEIN PMS™.

ABOUT POLARCUS
Polarcus is a relatively new offshore shipowner. However, many of its management previously worked for Eastern Echo, which ordered six Ulstein-designed seismic vessels in 2007. That company was later purchased by Western Geco. Polarcus is now building up the most modern, state-of-the-art, environment-friendly.
