Stanford Marine’s GM, Darren Reeves, said ‘Having the Stanford Buzzard, an 87m PSV, in East Africa and now the Stanford Hawk in West Africa allows us to strengthen our presence on the continent and provides a platform to deploy more vessels in the region if the right opportunity arises.’ Built by Fujian Mawei Shipyard in China, the 75 meter Stanford Hawk is a DP2 diesel electric Platform Supply Vessel (“PSV”) with a deadweight of 3300 tons, a FiFi 1 notation and spacious accommodation for a maximum complement of 52 persons onboard. With an open deck area of 700m2 and the support of a 5t crane, Stanford Hawk is capable of carrying approximately 1750 tons of cargo on deck. The vessel has under deck capacities of 1287m3 of fuel, 800m3 of fresh water, 1538m3 of water ballast, 497m3 of brine and 230m3 dry bulk tanks. Propulsion comes from four Cummins generators each rated at 1800kw, delivering a maximum speed of 14 knots. Installed with DP state-of-the-art Kongsberg K-Master, the vessel has the following reference systems: 3 x Gyro compass, 2 x DGPS, 1 x Cyscan, 1 x radius, 3 x wind sensors and 3 x VRUs. The vessel sailed to Angola after a two-week stay in Dubai, where contract-specific modifications were completed.
