Brunvoll Mar-El has been selected to deliver a parallel hybrid solution for Redningsselskapet (the Norwegian Rescue Services) new 32-meter search and rescue (SAR) vessel. The vessel named NDS-32 MPV is designed by Naval Dynamics and will be built by GOT Marine AS in Mandal. With completion in 2026, it will then be the largest SAR vessel along the coast of Norway.
“GOT Marine AS has a long history of building rescue vessels, and we at Brunvoll Mar-El look forward to cooperating on this project,” says Birger Gauslå, Vice President Sales & Marketing at Brunvoll Mar-El.
The vessel will be operating out of the Northern part of Norway where the weather and seas are among the roughest.
The hybrid system solution from Brunvoll Mar-El consists of an Energy Management System and DC Switchboard from the Triton Hybrid product range, and includes electric motors, inverters, and batteries. The Triton CPP, Triton steering gear and Triton thruster control systems are supplied for propulsion and gear control and integrates nicely with the Triton Hybrid system solution. The vessel will be equipped with the latest Brunvoll BruCon DP and Joystick solution.
The contract is the latest in a series of upcoming deliveries of control and power systems by Brunvoll. The offices of Brunvoll are situated in the southern part of Norway and finds itself in a period of strong growth and expansion.
