Kongsberg Maritime stated that the equipment package will include the supply of a complete hybrid propulsion system that drives permanent magnet azimuth thrusters.

It will also cover instruments, ship monitoring systems, deck machinery, next-generation ship automation, bridge consoles, and power electrical systems.

The equipment is expected to provide significant environmental and operational benefits, such as conducting port operations without using diesel engines.

The vessels will be constructed using the technology company’s UT 5519 HL design, which has been upgraded to offer more safety and operability while maintaining seakeeping properties and minimising fuel usage.
