Sale of mv Explorer to optimize Dockwise fleet
Bericht
Breda, The Netherlands, April 15, 2011 -- Dockwise Ltd. announces the sale of type IV vessel MV Explorer to optimize the composition of the company's fleet with an increasing focus on value add cargoes. MV Explorer has been sold to an undisclosed buyer, who previously bought MV Enterprise as well. MV Explorer will be delivered to the buyer end of July 2010 following its assignment to the Mediterranean.
The divestment of this type IV vessel followed from a cost-revenue analysis of the vessels' operation in market segments with a relatively low contribution to Dockwise Ltd's result. For that same reason type IV vessels Enterprise, Dock Express 10 and 12 were sold by Dockwise in 2010 and 2009 respectively. Furthermore with MV Explorer having completed almost 30 years of service, maintenance to meet Dockwise's offshore equipment standards would require disproportionate investment in Life Time Extension. The sale of the vessel is in line with plans previously outlined to enhance the focus of the organization on value adding projects requiring the differentiated service potential of type I, II and III vessels. Like MV Enterprise, MV Explorer will upon delivery to the buyer be transformed into a floating power plant.
