Meet Normand Maximus – the largest vessel in the Solstad fleet🚢
At 178 meters long, 33 meters wide and with an impressive 65‑meter airdraft, she is one of the world’s largest and most advanced subsea construction vessels.
Purpose‑built for complex deep‑water operations, she offers a 900‑ton main crane capacity and a 550‑ton vertical lay system.
She also holds a world record in pipe‑laying after installing 178 kilometers of umbilical cable in a single operation.
This year marks her 10‑year anniversary - we wish Normand Maximus and her crew the very best in the projects ahead!
