Platform supply vessel VOS Passion was named in a ceremony on July 18 at Cosco Shipyard in Guangdong, China.

 
VOS Passion, the fourth of six PX121-type PSVs being built at the shipyard for Vroon, is in the final stages of construction and will be ready for delivery in August.
 
The PX121 design features Ulstein’s patented X-BOW design to provide smoother vessel movements in harsh conditions. The PSVs comply with ABS class requirements for dynamic-positioning system Class II (DPS-2) and reduced noise and vibration to satisfy a Comfort-Class notation. With a length of 83.4 meters and a beam of 18 meters, the vessels provide 850 m2 deck space and a load capacity of 4,200 metric tons (dwt).
 
Once delivered, all PX121s will operate under the management of Vroon Offshore Services.
