HVAC&R | Arendal Spirit

Our subsidiary Heinen & Hopman China has completed a remarkable project. Arendal Spirit is the world’s first semi-submersible cylindrical floating accommodation unit. Constructed in COSCO Nantong shipyard, the design of Arendal Spirit is based on Sevan Marine’s unique cylindrical hull. This provides several advantages compared with traditional accommodation vessels, including high uptime, excellent motion characteristics (less seasickness), more deck space, better stabilities and more storage spaces. Arendal Spirit was delivered to the owner Teekay in February 2015, now it is chartered to Petrobras, operating in the sea outside Campos Basin, Brazil.
