LAURITZEN OFFSHORE

I have decided to include monohull accommodation vessels in this part of the website. This may not be logical but these new vessels are interesting, in that after some false starts and after some strange combinations of platform ships and portacabins there are now one or two of these unusual vessels about.

This company is a subset of the Danish shippiing company J. Lauritzen. I seem to recollect that in years gone by they ran a substantial merchant fleet, including some Antarctic ships. Perhaps someone could let me know some details. However, today they have a small fleet of offtake tankers and a single accommodation vessel. The details of this vessel follow below. They seem to have a large building programme of conventional vessels of one soert or another.
