Propulsion and manoeuvring systems supplier Brunvoll has been selected to deliver a range of equipment for a new compact service vessel designed by Moen Marin for the aquaculture industry.
The contract includes main propulsion, tunnel thrusters and Brunvoll’s BruCon control system.
With a length of 26 metres and a breadth of 12.4 metres, the single-hull multi-purpose vessel has been designed for use in various aquaculture operations, and it is dimensioned for heavier operations, with a relatively high bollard pull.
“The single hull design allows us to optimise the propulsion of this aquaculture service vessel for both high bollard pull and good speed, making this a valuable asset for the industry able to perform heavy-duty tasks,” Brunvoll Sales Manager Vidar Liaskar said.
According to Brunvoll, a reliable and efficient main propulsion and gear system will be provided for the vessel, ensuring that it is able to operate effectively in a wide range of conditions. Additionally, two tunnel thrusters will provide excellent manoeuvrability and positioning.
The BruCon system is a complete control, monitoring, and automation solution for main propulsion equipment, including azimuth systems. It is designed and optimised for the full range of Brunvoll propulsion and thruster units and will ensure that the vessel is able to operate efficiently and effectively.
