Vessel Description
The HANDIN TIDE is a Mexican-flagged offshore platform supply vessel (PSV) operating primarily in the Gulf of Mexico in support of offshore oil and gas operations, notably for PEMEX and associated contractors.
The vessel features the distinctive Ulstein X-BOW® hull design, which provides enhanced seakeeping performance, improved fuel efficiency, and reduced slamming in heavy sea conditions — characteristics well-suited for open Gulf of Mexico operations.
Equipped with a DP2 dynamic positioning system, the vessel is capable of maintaining precise station-keeping without anchoring, enabling safe cargo transfer and deck operations at offshore platforms and installations.
As a purpose-built PSV, HANDIN TIDE is configured for the transport of dry bulk, liquid mud, potable water, fuel, brine, and deck cargo in support of offshore drilling and production activities.
