        荷兰近海服务巨头Boskalis公司的新型电缆敷设船（cable-laying vessel，简称CLV）“BOKA Ocean”号经过重大改装计划后已投入使用。

        2023年8月，Boskalis公司将“BOKA Ocean”号用作铺管船加入其船队，随后将其改装为可广泛调用的电缆敷设船。

        该船原名“Apache II”号，在北海完成海试后，现准备开始其位于北海德国地区的首个项目，即在海上风电场安装第一条海底电缆。

        建造于2009年的“BOKA Ocean”号总长136.6米，宽27米，71间舱室可容纳人员118名。

        “BOKA Ocean”号加入了已有其两艘姊妹船的Boskalis公司船队，这两艘船是在过去两年半中收购的，现以“BOKA Northern Ocean”号和“BOKA Southern Ocean”号的船名投入运营。

        Boskalis公司称，虽然三艘船舶外观相似，但每艘船都各有所长，其中“BOKA Southern Ocean”号和“BOKA Northern Ocean”号属于高端施工支持船，主要忙于北海的IRM与电缆换新工作以及东南亚地区的海上风电场施工活动。

        谈及Boskalis公司其他新闻时，此公司上个月报告表示已在其潜水支援船（diving support vessel，简称DSV）“BOKA Atlantis”号上安装一套新型储能系统，从而促进其船队可持续性发展。

New cable layer joins Boskalis fleet following major conversion

Dutch offshore services giant Boskalis has commissioned its new cable-laying vessel (CLV) BOKA Ocean following a major conversion program.

Boskalis welcomed BOKA Ocean to its fleet in August 2023 as a pipe-laying vessel, which was then converted into a broadly deployable cable layer.

After completing its sea trials in the North Sea, the vessel, formerly named Apache II, is now ready to start on its maiden project in the German part of the North Sea, installing its first subsea cable at an offshore wind farm.

The 2009-built BOKA Ocean has an overall length of 136.6 meters and a breadth of 27 meters and can accommodate 118 people in 71 cabins.

BOKA Ocean joins its two sister vessels in the Boskalis fleet, which were acquired in the past two and a half years and are now operating under the names BOKA Northern Ocean and BOKA Southern Ocean.

According to Boskalis, although still similar in appearance, each vessel has its own specialty, with BOKA Southern Ocean and BOKA Northern Ocean being high-end construction support vessels, busy with IRM and decommissioning work in the North Sea and offshore wind farm construction activities in Southeast Asia.

Speaking about other news coming from the company, Boskalis last month reported it had installed a new energy storage system on board its diving support vessel (DSV) BOKA Atlantis as part of the efforts to make its fleet more sustainable.
