Vessel Description
The Grampian Talisman is a Platform Supply Vessel (PSV) operating primarily in the North Sea under the management of Craig Group, one of Scotland's leading independent marine service companies headquartered in Aberdeen.
Built in 2008 by Aker Langsten in Norway, the vessel was designed to support offshore oil and gas installations across the UK Continental Shelf. Equipped with a DP2 dynamic positioning system, the Grampian Talisman is capable of maintaining precise station-keeping in challenging sea conditions without the use of anchors, making it well-suited for proximity operations near offshore platforms.
The vessel forms part of Craig Group's Grampian Fleet, a dedicated fleet of offshore support and supply vessels serving the North Sea energy sector. The Grampian Talisman is configured to carry bulk cargo, liquid mud, brine, methanol, and general deck cargo in support of upstream oil and gas production activities.
Note: Some technical specifications (e.g., exact engine configuration, fuel capacity, cargo capacity breakdowns) are not publicly confirmed in open-source databases and have been omitted to ensure factual accuracy. Users requiring full technical specifications should consult Lloyd's Register, DNV, or the vessel's registered manager directly.
