What Crew Members Say About Sun-Tide

Corvus Energy has announced a pivotal agreement to deliver a state-of-the-art lithium-ion energy storage system (ESS) for the hybridization of Farstad Shipping's Platform Supply Vessel (PSV) 'Far Sun'. This cutting-edge technology will be seamlessly integrated by Vard Electro in the latter half of this year. The Orca Energy ESS from Corvus is designed to empower the PSV’s electrical propulsion system, significantly enhancing operational efficiency while promoting environmentally sustainable practices. This energy storage solution will play a crucial role in all operational phases of the PSV, particularly during dynamic positioning and harbor maneuvers, where it is expected to dramatically lower both fuel consumption and emissions, according to Corvus Energy. Furthermore, this advancement is essential for both Farstad and Statoil, which holds a long-term charter for the 'Far Sun', as the ESS will bolster safety by providing a spinning reserve for improved response times and increased operational redundancy.
