Special Purpose Offshore Vessels

Special Purpose Offshore Vessel Designs

At F&G, we utilize our vast experience and expertise to design vessels for many specialized purposes according to the needs of our clients. We have experience designing a wide variety of custom vessels, from multi-industry platforms to highly specialized units built for specific tasks. Some are versatile, while others are tailored for unique, purpose-driven operations.

Cable-Laying Vessels (CLVs)

We provide a variety of cable installation solutions for both shallow and deep-water projects, covering inter-array, export, and interconnector cables. Our fleet includes multipurpose cable-laying vessels and barges, as well as a vessel specifically designed for inter-array cable installation. This range of assets allows us to handle diverse project requirements efficiently.

Semi-Submersible Crane Vessels (SSCVs)

Our Semi-Submersible Crane Vessel (SSCV) is capable of some of the most rigorous offshore heavy lifts up to a combined 12,000mt and the most demanding deepwater pipe-lay projects. The SSCV is particularly well suited for installing and removing jackets, topsides, and modules, as well as handling the installation of foundations, moorings, and other structures in deep water.

Lift Boats

F&G provides advanced Lift Boats to support offshore drilling operations. These self-elevating platforms are equipped with cranes and offer accommodations for third-party crews. Ideal for tasks such as maintenance, workovers, pipeline and well repairs, rig support, salvage, and specialized drilling, our fleet is comprehensive to meet the needs of our customers.
