ROC’s Fourth PSV Successfully Laid its Keel, Marking New Milestone


On September 2nd, the keel-laying ceremony of the SPP40 platform supply vessel N1056, constructed by ROC, was successfully completed at the company's No. 2 slipway. This milestone marks the official entry of the vessel into the slipway construction phase, which will further enhance the company's core competitiveness in the field of offshore engineering equipment and provide higher-quality and more efficient equipment support for offshore energy development.

As the fourth vessel of its type meticulously built by ROC, the N1056 features advanced design and excellent performance, integrating innovative concepts such as the DP2 advanced dynamic positioning system and battery-powered eco-friendly energy-saving design. This fully demonstrates the project team's robust capabilities in ship design, construction techniques, and technological innovation. The vessel commenced construction in April this year. Building on the valuable experience gained from the first three vessels, ROC has strictly controlled every timeline milestone, successfully completing preliminary production design, material procurement, and block fabrication with high quality. The project progress is steadily advancing as planned. Currently, two vessels of the same type have already been launched.

The orderly progression of this project is the result of close collaboration and joint efforts from all parties involved. Moving forward, ROC will continue to apply a rigorous attitude and professional expertise, strictly adhering to the construction plan and technical requirements, to lay a solid foundation for the subsequent launching.
