Singapore-based Ultra Deep Solutions (UDS) has invited shipyards to quote for what promises to be its largest diving construction support vessel (DSCV) yet.

The proposed DP3-capable ship, which is being designed by Marin Teknikk of Norway, will have a length of between 150 metres and 160 metres.

The vessel will be required to support a crane with a lifting capacity of between 600 tonnes and 900 tonnes, and have a 24-person saturation diving system.
