Construction on the half-completed LNG-powered ferry Honfleur will resume at Fosen Yard AS in Rissa, Norway, instead of at Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft (FSG) yard in Flensburg, Germany. \u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n As informed, Fosen Yard has been awarded a contract by Norwegian shipping company Siem Group to complete the roll-on\/roll-off (RoRo) passenger vessel whose construction started back in 2018<\/a>.<\/p>\n The 42,400 gross ton newbuild (known as hull no. 774) is now being towed from Germany to Norway and is expected to arrive in Rissa next weekend.<\/p>\n In June this year, French shipping company Brittany Ferries cancelled the construction contract for the LNG-powered ferry with FSG, citing delays in the vessel’s delivery caused by the yard’s persistent financial problems.<\/p>\n \t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n The ship was then acquired by Siem from FSG. The German shipyard has built a number of vessels<\/a> for Siem in the past. Siem also owned a minority stake in old FSG before selling it to investment company Tennor Holding.<\/p>\n After starting insolvency proceedings in August, FSG was taken over<\/a> by several companies belonging to Tennor Holding in September 2020, making a fresh start.<\/p>\n The post Norway’s Fosen Yard to complete LNG-powered ferry Honfleur<\/a> appeared first on Offshore Energy<\/a>.<\/p>\n world maritime news<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Construction on the half-completed LNG-powered ferry Honfleur will resume at Fosen Yard AS in Rissa, Norway, instead of at Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft (FSG) yard in Flensburg, Germany. \u00a0 As informed, Fosen Yard has been awarded a contract by Norwegian shipping company Siem Group to complete the roll-on\/roll-off (RoRo) passenger vessel whose construction started back in 2018. …<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20142,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[1767,2034,12714,8102,2033,3428,2583],"class_list":["post-20141","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-maritime-news","tag-complete","tag-ferry","tag-fosen","tag-honfleur","tag-lngpowered","tag-norways","tag-yard"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20141","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20141"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20141\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/media\/20142"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20141"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20141"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.al-sindbad.net\/rest\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20141"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\n\t\t\t
