The contract was signed at the offices of Van Wijngaarden Marine Services.
Delivery is expected in September this year, when the vessel will become the fourth Neptune Marine-built ship within the Van Wijngaarden Marine Services fleet.
Of note, in June 2025, Van Wijngaarden Marine Services signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with Kooiman Marine Group for the design and construction of a DP2 multi-purpose vessel (MPV) with hybrid diesel-electric propulsion. The 47-meter-long MPV will support subsea work and offshore renewable energy projects, among other things.
