Navantia launches the support vessel for oil platforms for Pétroleos Mexicanos

Navantia has launched today, at 16.10, in the shipyard from Ferrol the support vessel for oil platforms for the Company “Petróleos Mexicanos”, in the presence of Mrs. Victoria Eugenia Aguiar Megniot, the president of the PMI’s board of directors José Manuel Carrera Oanizzo and the president of Navantia José Manuel Revuelta.

This launching is an important historical milestone and means the return to civil shipbuilding. The last civil vessel launched in Ferrol was the Castillo de la Luz 30 years ago. With the carrying out of this contract, Navantia confirms its commitment to comply with the schedule they agreed on for the vessel construction that will end with the delivery to the customer the 16th of July 2016.
