Dakar, Senegal: Gubert Tide (IMO: 9543823), platform supply vessel (PSV) / offshore supply ship (OSS), built for logistic support and transportation of goods, tools, equipment and personnel to and from offshore oil platforms and other offshore structures. Vessels of this type are equipped with powerful machinery to withstand the adverse weather conditions that often prevail in offshore rig areas. Usually these ships have bow thrusters, as shown by the two ‘propeller’ markings on the bow of the Gubert Tide – moored at the Autonomous Port of Dakar (PAD)

An outstanding commercial opportunity has emerged in the offshore support vessel (OSV) market for shipowners, charterers, and offshore operators. Available immediately for Sale or Bareboat Charter (BB) with a revised market price, this 73-meter DP2 Diesel-Electric Platform Supply Vessel  offers superior operational efficiency, extensive deck capacity, and dual-redundancy positioning.

The vessel has been undergoing a comprehensive full reactivation program, which is now nearing completion. She is positioned for prompt inspection and delivery in South East Asia, making her an ideal option for regional offshore field development, inspection/maintenance/repair (IMR) support, and logistical resupply operations.

Operational Advantages & Value Proposition

1. Cost-Efficient Diesel-Electric Propulsion

Equipped with three 1,825 kW diesel-electric prime movers,  delivers significant fuel economy across varying operational profiles. Diesel-electric systems allow power generation to scale dynamically with load requirements—reducing engine wear, lowering total operational expenditure (OPEX), and decreasing carbon footprint during dynamic positioning (DP) and idle periods.

2. High-Capacity Clear Deck Space

Featuring 690 m² of unobstructed deck space (50 m×13 m50\text{ m} \times 13\text{ m}), this vessel can support heavy offshore equipment, drill pipe, casing, subsea structures, and specialized project spreads.

3. Redundant Dynamic Positioning (DP2) & Maneuvering

With BV ✠ DYNAPOS AM-AT-R classification and two 745 kW tunnel bow thrusters, the vessel maintains high station-keeping performance under challenging metocean conditions, supporting safe deepwater supply duties, rig support, and offshore transfer operations.

4. Fully Reactivated & Ready for Immediate Deployment

Skip the delay and capital risk associated with drydock reactivation schedules. With her reactivation program entering its final stage, AR-P2369 offers buyers and charterers rapid deployment readiness to meet upcoming tender deadlines or immediate field demands in South East Asia.

Commercial Enquiries & Next Steps

This vessel represents a highly attractive asset acquisition or long-term charter option given her revised pricing structure and imminent operational readiness.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the delivery location for DP2 PSV

The vessel can be delivered promptly in South East Asia upon final completion of her reactivation program and execution of commercial contracts.

Is this vessel available for bareboat charter or direct purchase?

Yes, the vessel is available for both outright acquisition (sale) and bareboat charter (BB) agreements, offering flexible capital deployment options for charterers and shipowners.

What are the main benefits of a Diesel-Electric PSV compared to conventional mechanical propulsion?

A Diesel-Electric PSV automatically optimizes generator usage to match immediate power demands. This results in substantially lower fuel consumption during station-keeping/DP operations, reduced engine operating hours, lower maintenance costs, and a reduced carbon footprint.

What is the current operational status of the vessel?

she is currently completing a comprehensive full reactivation program. She will be delivered in fully operational condition, ready for class inspection and immediate deployment.
