ROC Starts Construction on N1059, Adding New Vessel to SPP40 Series

New vessel construction commences – another achievement added to our track record! Recently, the seventh SPP40 high-end platform supply vessel, Hull No. N1059, officially commenced construction at Nantong Rainbow Offshore & Engineering Equipment Co., Ltd. As a mature and proven flagship vessel type in the shipyard's offshore market portfolio, the SPP40 series features green energy-saving design, intelligent controllability, and safety and reliability. It is capable of efficiently performing multiple missions including offshore platform material supply, crew transportation, emergency support, and environmental protection operations, fully meeting the needs of marine energy exploration and development across various sea areas, from nearshore to deep and remote offshore fields.

The smooth start of construction of Hull No. N1059 is a significant outcome of deep mutual trust and long-term collaborative cooperation among multiple stakeholders. Leveraging an efficient production system with synchronized multi-node scheduling, ROC has achieved staggered construction of multiple vessels, optimized yard turnover, and established a stable and sustainable batch-delivery rhythm.

With the successful commencement of Hull No. N1059, the vessel has officially entered the substantive construction phase. This further demonstrates ROC's competitive advantages in batch production, standardized manufacturing, and intelligent shipbuilding. Moving forward, ROC will continue to uphold its high-standard construction management system for the series vessels, rigorously controlling production safety, build quality, and project milestones, while coordinating technical, production, quality inspection, and supporting resources across the entire value chain. Through high-quality offshore products, the shipyard remains committed to empowering global marine energy development and facilitating the high-quality "going global" of China's domestically manufactured offshore equipment.
