The Norwegian Coast Guard (Kystverket) awarded a tender to Lamor for a built-in oil recovery system for their new-build multi-purpose oil recovery vessel (project name FMV33). The OSR equipment, LORS-D 4C/M, has an oil recovery capacity of 240m²/hr and comprises telescopic jibs, sweep booms, remote control as well as Lamor GT A 50 oil transfer pumps.

“The Norwegian Coast Guard is taking proactive steps to enhance their preparedness for possible oil spill incidents. The installation of our oil recovery system on their new-build FMV33 multi-purpose oil recovery vessel is a most welcome milestone for Lamor in a series of oil spill response equipment deliveries to Norway,” says Christoffer Wallgren, Lamor’s regional manager Europe.
