The vessel is the second of four vessels in the VARD 4 25 series and is now alongside the yard together with NB965. Like her sister vessel, NB966 has all underwater equipment installed.
She will stay approx. 3 months quayside in Vard Braila before being towed to Vard Brattvåg in Norway for commissioning, topside installation, and sea trials before delivery.
