The multipurpose vessel BBC Dubai has successfully passed its sea trials.
Part of the Lakermax series, the 13,000 dwt triple decker vessel newbuild will subsequently enter a long-term time charter with BBC Chartering.
The vessels in this series are equipped with two Liebherr LS 250 shipboard cranes, offering a combined lifting capacity of up to 500 tonnes. Bridge and crew accommodation are located at the front of the ship, with the two cranes located portside. This allows for an unobstructed 2,830 sq m of space on the weather deck. The two cargo holds are box shaped and offer room for almost 26,000 cu m of cargo on a floor space of close to 5,000 sq m, when two tween decks are in operation.
The company has increased the original order of 10 vessels to 15, which will be delivered through until 2026.
