Shipyard Davie Québec announce that Cecon ASA of Norway has confirmed its intention to exercise a shipbuilding option worth US $145.3 million, providing the Lévis shipyard with another major contract—its third in less than four months.

Davie Québec will be building another VS4220 state-of-the-art offshore vessels measuring 130 meters in length and 28 meters in width and featuring a crew capacity of 100. The only difference with the other two ships already on the order book is that the main crane will have a lifting capacity of 400 tons at a depth of 3,000 meters, versus 250 tons at a depth of 2,500 meters.
