AKER WAYFARER

Advanced multipurpose offshore construction vessel.

Aker Wayfarer is an advanced multipurpose offshore construction vessel capable of undertaking subsea installation, floater installations, topside floatovers and removal operations. The vessel is currently working in the construction market, but will during 2015/2016 be upgraded to become a SESV unit.

Delivered in October 2010, she is a sister ship of Skandi Aker, the largest monohull subsea well intervention vessel ever built. The Skandi Aker was the first intervention vessels to be classed with IMO MODU (mobile offshore drilling unit) code, allowing them to carry oil onboard. The Aker Wayfarer is also prepared for the IMO MODU notation.
