The fit out of Fugro’s new build vessel, the Fugro Symphony is well under way in Bergen Norway. The vessel was launched at the end of July and we expect delivery early in 2011.The vessel is fitted with Kongsberg’s K-Master DP systems and is similar in design to Fugro’s other construction support vessel, the Fugro Saltire, with a few modifications. The main difference is the addition of a 19m hull section bringing the overall vessel length up to 130m. Other features include a 1,300m2, 22m thick steel deck, rated to 10T/m2 loading and having no ‘No Weld’ zones over the entire deck area. There is a large, below deck storage capacity and also MEG tanks capable of carrying 340m2 of product. The vessel is fitted with a 150Te Active Heave Compensated Crane (with a 250Te crane pedestal) and as the Fugro Saltire, Symphony is fitted with 2 FCV 3000 ROVs deployed from overhead Launch and Recovery Systems, built in to their own hangar area and controlled from a central control room.
Designed and built to Comfort and Vibration Class 3 and providing accommodation for 105 persons, the Fugro Symphony is fitted out to an extremely high standard and features a 50 seat Auditorium (Cinema and Project briefing room), fully networked accommodation, with TV and DVD in all cabins. In addition to the plentiful lounge areas there is a well equipped gymnasium and 2 saunas.
