DESCRIPTION
This 254’ vessel was designed by Ulstein International AS and was built by Ulstein Verft AS. The UT 743 design was developed in accordance with the demanding requirements for silent operation at high capacity production. The vessel features a compact and efficient layout, providing a comprehensive arrangement of mechanical and electronic seismic outfitting, and a highly flexible, redundant and powerful propulsion and machinery package.

The vessel is built to Det Norske Veritas Class + A1, Ice-C. E0, Heldk., and to international rules and regulations as applicable for the subject type of vessel. Further the vessel satisfies IMO Res. A 468 (XII) as a general maximum noise level in laboratories and related areas. Special consideration was taken from design stage and throughout the building program in order to minimize hydro-acoustic noise generated by the vessel. All major rotating machinery installations are resiliently mounted, and vibration characteristics of the steel structure and hull is made without interference from machinery and propulsion plant.
