Van Oord’s new build CLV, Calypso, is a 130m long hybrid vessel that has been designed with sustainable technologies in order to reduce the carbon foot print during operations and port standby. The MAATS designed cable lay equipment includes a 5000T below deck carousel, a 4000T on deck carousel and was designed in close consultation with both Van Oord and vessel designers and builders, VARD Group AS.
This collaborative concepting started at the earliest stages with our FEA department assessing the integration of the MAATS designed equipment into the vessel design. This ensures the equipment and vessel complement each other and the vessel preforms to the highest technical standards.
MAATS is supplying the following equipment for vessel launch from VARD and will be fully operational in 2023.
