Launch and naming YN-712 'Toisa Pegasus'

IHC Merwede is proud to announce the launch of a new Diving Support/Offshore Construction vessel for Bermuda based Toisa.

The Launch will take place on Saturday November 24, 2007 at Merwede Shipyard and will be performed by Mrs Lorena Vázquez de Hernández, spouse of Mr José Hernández Cantarell, President CICSA. In March 2006 Merwede Shipyard was granted this order because of its ability to design and offer a fixed price for the vessel including the integration of the complete owner furnished dive spread and cranes within the required short delivery time. The vessel has been built under yard No 712. Merwede Shipyard has developed the ship in close co-operation with Toisa (Owners) and Sealion Shipping (Managers). It will be a fully Dynamically Positioned Construction Class Diving Support Vessel, suitable for worldwide operation. As an enhanced sister vessel to the Toisa 'Proteus', 'Polaris' and 'Perseus', with a fully in-built Saturation Diving System, the vessel can, and will, support a wide variety of subsea operations worldwide.
