Cable laying vessel NKT Victoria in Öresund



Norway´s Ship of the Year 2017, NKT Victoria, passed by this morning. The 140 m advanced cable laying vessel is on its way to Landskrona for maintenance.
"NKT Victoria was proclaimed Ship of the Year 2017 in Norway in recognition of her innovative, technological and sustainability capabilities." --
"NKT Victoria was christened 4 May 2017 and directly went to sea for her maiden project laying the 113 km HVDC cable connecting the Scottish regions Caithness and Moray. Afterwards she has laid cables for projects such as the 600 MW wind farm Kriegers Flak in Denmark and the export cable connecting the Rentel windfarm to shore in Belgium. She also proved her capabilities in service operations completing the repair of the high-voltage link Skagerrak 2 between Denmark and Norway in the harsh November conditions of the North Sea."
