2 March 2026 - HAV Group’s ship design business has been awarded a contract to provide design and engineering services for the upgrade of a previously designed vessel.
Several years after entering service, the undisclosed vessel will now be upgraded with the latest technology solutions to further boost its operational efficiency.
“To be able to contribute towards further enhancing the efficiency of this vessel, several years after we originally designed it, is a special moment for us,” says Richard Schofield, managing director of HAV Design.
HAV Group’s contract party is HAV Design, which is headquartered in Fosnavåg, Norway. A design and engineering services project of this complexity typically generates between NOK 10 and 20 million in revenue.
“Converting and refitting vessels have become a financially and operationally attractive opportunity for vessel owners. Besides newbuild vessels, this opens further market opportunities for our ship design business. Additionally, this contract positions HAV Design for further conversion and upgrade work and ensures improved utilisation of our design and engineering specialists,” says Gunnar Larsen, CEO of HAV Group.
