Harvey Gulf International Marine Signs Two More Dual Fuel LNG Vessels

Published Feb 13, 2012 2:49 PM by The Maritime Executive

STX Marine would like to congratulate Harvey Gulf International Marine on the signing of a new contract to build an additional two STX Marine SV310DF dual fuel Offshore Support Vessels in the Gulf of Mexico to be constructed by Trinity Offshore.  The new order brings the total number of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) powered vessels on order from Harvey Gulf to four. As with the first two vessels, these vessels will be powered by a dual-fuel solution provided by Wärtsilä.

The four OSVs will be the first US flagged dual fuel vessels that will have the American Bureau of Shipping’s ENVIRO+ certification. The vessels will be constructed with certified environmentally friendly material and will meet the highest emissions standards. Harvey Gulf is pioneering the changes required to create a cleaner and safer Gulf of Mexico. STX Marine is privileged to be the design team associated with this project.
