Bourbon Offshore faced a time-sensitive challenge have a new ballast water treatment system installed on the Bourbon Front before the upcoming offshore campaign in Namibian waters. The project had to be completed during the vessel’s voyage from Gibraltar to Namibia, without the convenience of a standard dry-docking period or access to shore resources. This demanded precise execution in design and procurement, ensuring a successful installation within the fixed 25-day window.
