TOTAL : Stanford Marine secures Total E&P contract

STANFORD Marine, a leading regional offshore marine business, announced from its Dubai headquarters that it has secured a five year contract with Total E&P Angola for Stanford Hawk, the latest addition to its fleet.

Total E&P Angola (Tepa) awarded Stanford Marine a five-year contract, with two 2 year options, scheduled to commence by the beginning of February 2014. The Stanford Hawk will be supporting the process and storage activities of Tepa, by transporting personnel and cargo, as well as assisting in safety standby duties.

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 metre Stanford Hawk is a DP2 diesel electric Platform Supply Vessel (PSV) with a deadweight of 3300 tonne, a FiFi 1 notation and spacious accommodation for a maximum compliment of 52 persons onboard. With an open deck area of 700 sq m and the support of 5 tonne crane, Stanford Hawk is capable of carrying approximately 1750 tonne of cargo on deck. The vessel has under deck capacities of 1287 c m of fuel, 800 c m of fresh water, 1538 c m of water ballast, 497 c m of brine and 230 c m 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.
