Truth Maritime Services Reinforces Market Leadership With The First Gyro Stabiliser Equipped Hybrid Fast Crew Boat In Thailand

Truth Maritime Services (‘TMS’) continues to bolster its fleet with the delivery of the latest Generation 4 Fast Crew Boat (FCB) from Strategic Marine, making this the second vessel this year. The signing of the Protocol of Delivery and Acceptance was graced by Chairman of Prima Marine Group, Mr Anantachai Auttama on 19th March 2024.

This delivery marks a significant milestone in TMS’s fleet expansion efforts and underscores the company’s commitment to providing cutting-edge maritime solutions and decarbonisation solutions to the Thai market. This will be the first Fast Crew Boat to offer gyro stabilisation in Thailand which follows from TMS RANOD, which was the first crew boat in Thailand to offer Hybrid Solutions.

This second Generation 4 Fast Crew Boat for Truth Maritime Services showcases advanced features like a gyro-stabiliser to enhance her sea-keeping during personnel transit and transfers onto offshore installations in adverse weather conditions. This vessel is also equipped with a hybrid power (+) energy storage system to reduce carbon emissions, features business class comfort, and can efficiently transfer up to 70 offshore workers in business-class comfort, setting new standards in offshore transportation.

The vessel’s completion further extends Strategic Marine’s delivery track record of the innovative Generation 4 FCB hull design, known for its superior performance and environmental credentials. The vessel incorporates a highly efficient hull form featuring Z-bow design, ensuring optimal fuel consumption and emissions reduction.

“We are thrilled to announce the delivery of the second Generation 4 Fast Crew Boat to Truth Maritime Services,” said Mr Chan Eng Yew, CEO of Strategic Marine “This delivery signifies our continued partnership with TMS and our shared commitment to excellence in maritime solutions and decarbonisation efforts.”

“After the achievement of TMS RANOD delivery in January 2024, today is an auspicious day to participate in the naming ceremony of the second hybrid medium speed crew boat. We sincerely appreciate Strategic Marine who has played a very important role in bringing innovative technology to fulfil Prima Marine’s ESG objectives.” Khun Neeracha Panboonhom, Authorised Director of Prima Marine Group says.
