Fantastic vessel, with a flashy resume

Northern Survey fleet was replenished with one more vessel equipped with Navis NavDP control system. The Northern Karoline is Northern Survey’s first ship and was originally built as a whaler in a shipyard in Glasgow, Scotland in 1950. She is the third vessel in Northern survey fleet equipped with Navis NavDP control system.

In 2020, the Northern Karoline underwent an extensive refit, including a completely new accommodation, with installation of new propulsion and thrusters control systems and Dynamic positioning control system. It was a challenging job due to the age of the vessel but in close cooperation with our Danish partner HE Marine it was successfully done in very tight schedule.
