General – Fleet Expansion
Boskalis has expanded its offshore energy fleet with the BOKA Ocean.
The current pipe-laying vessel, formerly named Apache II, is being prepared in Rotterdam for the modification to a cable-laying vessel.
The BOKA Ocean is a sister vessel of the BOKA Northern Ocean and BOKA Southern Ocean, which Boskalis has acquired in the past two years. A unique fact about the three sister vessels is that they all have a different function than initially as a pipe-laying vessel.
The BOKA Northern Ocean and BOKA Southern Ocean have been modified into high-end construction support vessels that are carrying out a wide range of offshore activities.
