Vessel Description

STRAUMBAS is a Norwegian-flagged offshore platform supply vessel built in 1998, operating primarily on the Norwegian Continental Shelf in the North Sea. The vessel is designed to support offshore oil and gas installations, providing deck cargo, bulk, and liquid cargo transfer capabilities typical of North Sea PSV operations. With DP2 capability, the vessel can maintain precise positioning during offshore supply and support operations without anchoring, a critical requirement for working alongside drilling rigs and production platforms in the North Sea environment.
