Finnish shipyard delivers LNG-fueled patrol boat
STX Finland Oy’s Rauma Shipyard recently delivered the TURVA, a 96-meter dual fuel offshore patrol vessel, to the Finnish Border Guard. The 96 meter by 17 meter wide TURVA will be stationed in the Gulf of Finland, operating 300 days per year. The versatile vessel will provide frontier supervision, maritime search and rescue (SAR), environmental protection and monitoring of natural resources, oil spill response on the open sea, and cooperation with other authorities. The TURVA is fitted with three Wartsila 34DF engines with dual fuel capability, with operation on Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) with low emission levels and Marine Diesel Oil (MDO) diesel oil as fuel. The Turva can provide support for the operations of auxiliary ships and helicopters, with the ability to operate in virtually any weather and visibility conditions on the Baltic Sea. The boat’s hull and its systems have been designed with seaworthiness and operational dependability in mind to ensure functioning capacity under extreme conditions. The patrol boat features a large working deck and an oil recovery system and high-capacity tanks for recovered oil, facilitating long operating times. If necessary, open sea oil spill response activities can be performed on rough seas and in winter conditions. The ship also features capability to respond in case of serious chemical accidents.
