GloMar Shipmanagement B.V. (GloMar) has announced the procurement of the FUGRO COMMANDER, a Dynamically Positioned (DP) shallow draft geotechnical vessel.

She will be renamed GLOMAR VANTAGE and will be converted into a DSV with an on board Seaeye Tiger ROV and two diving LARS systems. GloMar stated that the vessel will be able to perform primary diving / ROV operations enabling the company to work on a large variety of projects.

The GLOMAR VANTAGE was equipped with Dynamic Positioning (DPI) which was refurbished in 2012. Furthermore she has a 4 point mooring system. Her dimensions are 57 x 12 m and has a summer draught of 3.5 m which makes her capable for shallow water operations.

She can accommodate 28 pax and has a 5T @ 12 m crane. For diving operations, the crew aboard GLOMAR VANTAGE can make use of the 3.8 x 3.8 m moonpool and 18T/38T twin line heave compensated winch.

GloMar Shipmanagement B.V. CCO Mark van der Star commented: “The GLOMAR VANTAGE is a good fit in our fleet to expand our Subsea Diving and ROV services all over the world. We are in discussion with Fugro to mutually offer the vessel back to the market as Geotechnical vessel. Furthermore we will actively promote her in the renewable and Oil & Gas industry. We strive to exceed our services to provide more value, based on today’s principle of supply and demand.”
