A new offshore patrol vessel ordered by France’s Directorate General for Maritime Affairs, Fisheries and Aquaculture(DGAMPA) will combine an innovative wind-assisted propulsion solution with a diesel-electric hybrid propulsion system with IMO TIER III compliant engines,
The contract for the New Generation Maritime Affairs Patrol Vessel (PAMNG) has been awarded to a consortium of Boulogne shipbuilder SOCARENAM and naval architect firm Mauric.
With a length of 54 meters, this offshore patrol vessel is designed for extended 12-day missions with a crew of 20 persons. It is equipped with two launch and recovery systems for 6.50-meter fast semi-rigid inflatable boats capable of making interceptions at a speed up to 35 knots.
With a steel hull and an aluminum superstructure, the vessel’s design places major importance on seakeeping and crew comfort, notably through the integration of an anti-roll stabilization solution combining active fins and passive free surface tank, ensuring optimal operability in all sea states. Her propulsion configuration allows a maximum speed of 17 knots and a
