Jaya Holdings signed a contract to charter its new build DP2 Platform Supply Vessel (PSV), the Jaya Vigilant, for long-term operations offshore Mozambique. The two-year contract, which includes charterer’s options, has a value of more than $20 million.
The Jaya Vigilant, designed as a large PSV, is now being upgraded with additional equipment required for the charter’s work scope prior to delivery from Jaya’s own yard at the end of September 2013.
The work scope includes Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) support, survey work and core sampling in water depths of up to 2,000 meters and thus requires a 50 ton, subsea rated, deep water crane and a mezzanine deck for the ROV spread, as well as additional communications kit, survey pole equipment and enhanced passenger facilities on board.
