Norway's Eidesvik Offshore has revealed a new cooperation with charterer Aker BP to cut emissions from existing platform supply vessels by 70%.
An Eidesvik ship, as well as one each from Solstad Offshore and Simon Mokster Shipping, will be retrofitted with hybrid battery solutions initially.
Eidesvik and Aker BP will then also examine other additional measures that will reduce carbon output to meet the 70% target as part of the project they are calling Retrofit.
