Turkey’s Tersan Shipyard has confirmed the launch of Arctic factory freezer trawler NB1107, which has been built for Denmark-based Ocean Prawns A/S.
To be named Atlantic Enterprise, the 82.3-metre-long and 18-metre-wide vessel will be an advanced, technologically- sophisticated factory trawler, capable of triple trawling.
It is planned that Atlantic Enterprise will have a shrimp plant and a turbot production factory on board. The vessel will also have 1,200-tonne capacity fish room.
Equipped with 7350 kW Wärtsilä main engine, Atlantic Enterprise will be able to cruise at a speed of 16 knots. It will house a 2,950-cubic-metre freezer hold for processed fish and a 200-cubic-metre packing hold.
The Skipsteknisk-designed vessel will have accommodation for 35 people on board with spacious and comfortable living places.
“We are very pleased and proud to have the chance to work together with Ocean Prawns A/S for this significant project,” said Mehmet Gazioğlu, General Manager of Tersan.
NB1107 will be the first project that Tersan delivers to Denmark.
“It will definitely be a great pleasure to cooperate with Ocean Prawns and Skipsteknisk in order to build such a high quality and sophisticated vessel in which all parties will implement their own valuable expertise. From today, we are looking forward to the successful delivery of this highly sophisticated, technologically–advanced trawler.”
