GEO.xyz Welcomes Multi-purpose Vessel Geo Surveyor X

GEO.xyz, headquartered in Belgium, took delivery of its latest vessel, Geo Surveyor X, in October 2013. Designed to GEO.xyz’s specifications, Geo Surveyor X is a 20-metre multi-purpose vessel fitted with the latest survey equipment including a hull-mounted multibeam system. It is able to carry out the full range of site and cable route surveys in a safe and efficient manner.

To maximise utilisation of the vessel, consideration within the specifications was given to the Offshore Support sector and the vessel can carry a 20-foot container aft and at the bow with a deck load of 25 tons, while being licensed MCA Cat 1 to carry 12 persons. This dual ability allows the vessel to either operate in a operations & maintenance capacity or as a survey vessel or alternatively both simultaneously offering combined efficiencies.

GEO.xyz adds that the Geo Surveyor X is fuel efficient for its class and at cruising speed 21 knots/h, delivers a fuel consumption of 220 litres/h.

The Geo Surveyor X is fitted with an A-frame delivering 3.0 ton SWL enabling shallow geotechnical sampling and ROV launching. The deck crane has 7,5t/M capacity, there are two moonpools, winch capacity and for longer deployments, accommodation on board is with 12 bunks in 6 double cabins.
