Our New Vessels Project Manager Chris Lingham recently visited IPE’s factory in Vietnam, just a few hours from the main shipyard, to inspect the manufacture of electrical distribution cabinets and consoles for our new vessels.

The visit enabled Chris and representatives from PIRIOU shipyard, including the electrical quality control manager, to verify the quality of the equipment and conformance with specification, together with the opportunity to provide input with any minor modifications that may be required, prior to delivery to the shipyard.

The high quality of the electrical control cabinets and the main control console for Scillonian IV’s engine control room can be seen in the images.

IPE are also contracted to manufacture the consoles for the wheelhouses on both vessels, and we are proud to be working with expert teams like IPE, to support our build program.
