The 61-metre, ice-class trawler, designed by Norwegian company named Skipsteknisk, will be equipped with modern research and laboratory facilities, as well as accommodation for 32 people. Delivery of the propulsion package is scheduled for Q1, 2020 with the vessel expected to enter service from spring 2021.
