Boskalis is about to set a new record. The Boka Vanguard, the former Dockwise Vanguard, is currently getting ready to load a 90,000 ton Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO) platform.
This is equivalent to the weight of approximately 300 Boeing 747s making this the heaviest cargo ever to be transported by a semi-submersible heavy lift vessel.
Until recently, the Boka Vanguard was known as the Dockwise Vanguard. It is the world's largest semi-submersible heavy lift vessel. The renaming and subsequent rebranding of the vessel marks the start of the process to present the company's integrated service portfolio for the offshore energy sector under a single brand name: Boskalis.
