Triumph 3

This morning the Triumph arrived in the port of Rotterdam with the oil rig Maesrk Resolve on deck. The Triumph is a heavy transport ship from the dutch company Dockwise.

The semi-submersible heavy lift vessel Triumph now joins the fleet of Dockwise. The Triumph is one of six single-hull tankers converted into heavy lift vessels at the Cosco Guangdong Shipyard. The vessel was delivered on December 16, 2008 and left for Singapore to load its first cargo on December 17, 2008.
The heavy transport vessel is designed to transport complex, high-value cargo and has a carrying capacity in excess of 35,000 tons. With an unobstructed deck area measuring 44.5 m x 130 m, the vessel is well suited for carrying semi-submersible and jack-up drilling units, as well as offshore structures. During the conversion, the entire midsection was newly constructed and fitted to the bow and aft part of the single-hull tanker. As a result, the classification authorities consider the vessel to have an economic life of around ten years, resulting in a remaining economic life of 20 years.
To ensure the most effective way of operating the vessel, Dockwise has appointed Anglo-Eastern Ship Management to provide technical and crew management. As such, the new vessels will operate under the same management systems as the existing Dockwise vessels. Crews, superintendents and other personnel will therefore be completely familiar with all operating procedures, ensuring safe operations.
