Our new cargo vessel remains on schedule for delivery in early 2026. The vessel is being built through the assembly of 12 unique units as shown in the illustration below.

The subassemblies are fabricated under cover in a number of Piriou’s fabrication sheds and then integrated into the larger units, which are later lowered into the build dock for assembly. The steel construction of units three, four and five is now complete and has been inspected and approved by Lloyd’s Register surveyors and our own team on site. Construction of units one and two is ongoing and steel cutting for units eight and nine is underway.
