Zamil Offshore commissioned Incat Crowther and Singaporean shipbuilder Lita Ocean to design, build and deliver a fourth 60-m ABS-classed monohull Fast Support Intervention Vessel (FSIV). The project follows the delivery of the third vessel in the original fleet with the performance of the fleet leading to the order of a fourth vessel.

The FSIV fleet is assisting Zamil Offshore with the efficient and safe transport of cargo, heavy maintenance equipment and personnel for Saudi Aramco’s operations in the Arabian Sea.

Capable of speeds up to 36 knots, the vessels are powered by four MTU 16V4000 diesel engines coupled to ZF gearboxes driving Hamilton HT810 waterjets. Maneuverability of the DP2-certified vessels is enhanced by three Hydromaster tunnel bow thrusters, allowing safe docking and offshore station-keeping for transfer of cargo and personnel. Two of the main engines are coupled to FFS firefighting pumps paired with 1200 cu. m./hr. water monitors and shipboard water spray protection offering FiFi-1 capability. Three Scania 300kW diesel generators provide ship service power.

The main deck offers an expansive 250 sq. m. aft cargo deck rated at 2.5 t/
