SMST has been awarded a contract by shipbuilder Green Yard Kleven for the delivery of a gangway (TAB-L2), with an Access and Cargo Tower (ACT), and a 50t Knuckle Boom Crane (KBC) for the newbuild Field Support Vessel (FSV) of OMV Petrom S.A. The vessel is bound for the Neptun Deep project, the largest natural gas project in the Romanian Black Sea, and will be delivered in the second half of 2026.

The 89.5 meter long multihull vessel will be built according to Marin Teknikk 6067 design, offering a high level of automation, and multi-purpose function. “SMST’s mission equipment complements the vessel’s flexibility as it enables the FSV to access unmanned platforms, transfer goods, and perform subsea maintenance and repair works,” says Jochem Tuinstra, Sales Manager at SMST, “The combination of the 50t active heave compensated crane and gangway enables us to integrate the power and controls within the vessel, increasing both operational and service efficiency.”

“SMST has proven to deliver equipment with the highest quality and reliability,” says Rune Gamlem, Sales Manager at Green Yard Kleven, “Furthermore, SMST has an impressive track record, extensive in-house engineering and timely deliveries, making them a reliable partner for our project.”
