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.
