DeepOcean has signed a charter contract with Dong Fang Offshore for the Orient Adventurer multipurpose subsea vessel. 

The vessel will join DeepOcean’s fleet from early 2026 until the end of 2027, with options for up to four further years.

Orient Adventurer (ex-Polar Onyx) will work for the company globally providing offshore wind operations and maintenance; installation services; inspection, maintenance and repair; construction; and recycling of offshore oil and gas infrastructure.

At present, the vessel is supporting an offshore wind program in Southeast Asia.

It is equipped with a 250-mt crane and a vertical lay system with a 275-mt capacity. DeepOcean plans to add two ROVS onboard in hangars and potentially an underdeck carousel capable of carrying and installing power cables.
