Anchor handling/tug/supply vessels

Our first designs for AHTS-vessels were based on the acclaimed UT-704 model. This design formed a standard for offshore support vessels when first launched in 1974.


UT 722 L (left) and UT 780 (right) are both installed with Rolls-Royce equipment for use in challenging offshore conditions.

Our designs have been under constant development since then, and today more than 90 AHTS of UT-Design have been built for operations worldwide.

The UT-Design for AHTS-vessels range from small and compact vessels to large and powerful ships. They can be fitted with the world’s largest winches from Rolls-Royce, providing tremendous pull capacity.

30 years after the delivery of the first UT vessel the contract for ship number 500 is signed. Read more »



In-house production of winches and control systems means complete integration, resulting in highly functional and advanced solutions.

Even if the AHTS-vessels are customised for anchor-handling and towing, they can also undertake ROV services, safety/rescue services and supply duties between mainland and offshore installations.
