Ocean Infinity adds third vessel to subsea fleet

U.S.-based Ocean Infinity, a subsea technology and data company, has launched its third vessel, Normand Frontier.

The vessel has now been mobilized, having been signed on a three-year year charter with the Norwegian ship owner Solstad Offshore in December 2018, Ocean Infinity said on Friday.

The Normand Frontier is a multi-purpose vessel capable of both supporting AUV and USV operations, as well as deep water search and recovery services.

The mobilization of this third vessel adds to Ocean Infinity’s current fleet consisting of the Seabed Constructor and MV Island Pride.

Ocean Infinity now operates three permanently mobilized subsea vessels each equipped with 5 AUVs, 3 USVs, 2 ROVs, full ocean depth hull mounted multi-beam echo-sounder, deep water 45 tonnes fibre rope winch and construction class crane.

Oliver Plunkett, Ocean Infinity’s CEO, said: “Driven by demand from clients wishing to move away from legacy technologies the mobilization of a third vessel allows us to service our clients globally across a range of sectors and materially improves the bandwidth of our offering.

“We are very pleased to be working with Solstad Offshore, a leader in the provision of specialized offshore vessels and we are very excited to be continuing on our strong growth trajectory.”
