In total, 30 vessels of the PX121 design have been contracted by different ship owners for construction at various shipyards across the globe, while the MV Blue Queen is the ninth being constructed at Ulstein Verft.
“Golden Energy Offshore is a fully integrated ship owning company located in Ålesund, Norway with all management functions in-house and we look forward to working with Blue Ship Invest in providing full management for these vessels for the benefit and success of both parties,” says Per Ivar Fagervoll, CEO in Golden Energy Offshore.
In addition to the two vessels, Golden Energy Offshore has shipbuilding contracts with Nantong Rainbow Offshore & Engineering in China for the construction of two PX121H platform supply vessels from Ulstein. The two vessels are due for delivery in Q1 and Q2 of 2016. The contract includes options for two additional vessels.
