On February 12th, the 15th day of the first lunar month, coinciding with the Lantern Festival, Rainbow Offshore successfully held the keel-laying ceremony for two SPP40 platform supply vessels. This event marked a critical stage in the construction of these projects and achieved a positive start for 2025. The N1053 vessel began construction in October 2024, and the N1054 vessel started in November of the same year. The Rainbow Offshore project team accelerated the production of these projects, carefully planning and achieving the significant milestone of keel-laying both vessels two months ahead of the original schedule.

The SPP40 project is a high-performance, multi-functional offshore vessel, measuring 81.75 meters in total length, 17.40 meters in breadth, 7.8 meters in depth, with a maximum draft of 6.3 meters and a designed speed of up to 13 knots. It is classified by BV and needs to meet the Clean Ship specification requirements of the BV classification society. In terms of the power system, it adopts an advanced electric propulsion mode, equipped with two tunnel-type bow thrusters at the front and two azimuthing main propellers at the stern. This design allows it to navigate flexibly even in complex sea conditions. Moreover, it is the first to apply cutting-edge technologies such as lithium iron phosphate batteries and fuel monitoring systems, making it an environmentally friendly PSV that fully meets the demands of the international market.

The successful holding of this keel-laying ceremony not only demonstrates Rainbow Offshore's technical strength and efficient project management capabilities in the field of shipbuilding but also lays a solid foundation for the subsequent construction of the SPP40 platform supply vessels.

Rainbow Offshore will take this opportunity to continue upholding the craftsmanship spirit of striving for perfection, ensuring the timely delivery of high-quality projects, and providing the best services to customers. At the same time, we are fully committed to advancing the orderly construction of two more vessels of the same type signed this year, aiming to achieve the goal of early delivery.
