Northern Maria joined the Northern Survey Fleet on the 10th of May 2021. She is built as a ULSTEIN P 106 Supply vessel, delivered in 2003 as Far Splendour. With no time to waist, we were eager to realize all the visions, we had for her – upon her arrival in Denmark, she was immediately taken under loving care, at the Shipyard in Thyborøn, where a lot of man hours was put in to make Northern Maria a fully versatile Survey Vessel. Finally on the end of March 2022, Northern Maria was ready to get out and show all her new features and her fantastic ability to perform. It took almost a year to complete the major conversion of the 74 meter vessel, but the result was absolutely worth waiting for! One of the most defining changes we made, is the new accommodation module, which enables us to offer 43 people a stay onboard. Some of the upgrades to be mentioned is the new NAVIS DP2 system, the 30-ton A-Frame, 370 TM offshore crane the Kongsberg HiPAP 502, 2moon tubes and a completely refurbished mess room to fit the hungry crowd. We are all very excited about all the great accomplishments, we will get to experience with this fantastic vessel and not a day goes by, when we are not grateful that Northern Maria became part of the Northern Survey fleet.
