OCV vessel for operations such as IMR, ROV services, well intervention and drilling. Max operational crane depth 4,000 m. Main moon pool opening 11.2 x 12 m, two work ROV moon pools. Extensive under-deck capacities for liquid and dry substances. Deck load capacity 9,000 t. Three separate engine rooms.

After the ship construction had started, it was decided to increase the deck area and tank capacities. The vessel is now measuring 160m by 30m. A 400t crane for operations at 4,000-metre depth as well as a 140t crane with 3,000-metre wire have been installed. The vessel has three moon pools - two for work ROVs and one construction moon pool of 12 x 11.2 metres. The vessel has been prepared for a possible later installation of a module handling tower by reinforcing the foundations in the moon pool area. A later change order included an upgrade of the accommodation, from 200 to 239 persons. 'Operation+' allows the vessel to continue uninterrupted operations after sustaining a substantial single failure, such as the loss of generators or thrusters. This gives the vessel unmatched extended redundancy, and a ship to fully rely on. Houston-based C-Innovation, an affiliate of Edison Chouest Offshore, has been contracted to perform riserless light well intervention (RLWI) to support BP's deepwater activities in the Gulf of Mexico.
