Hubel Marine visits newbuilt vessel at Poland shipyard

Tuesday May 20, 2014

The registration department of Hubel Marine, Wouter Sluis and Erik de Koning were invited by Dutch based company Offshore Wind Support to visit the nearly completion of their new built vessel Glomar Wave in Gdynia, Poland.

Her name ‘Wave’ is an acronym for ‘Windfarm Accomodation Vessel E-type’, where E-type stands for Energy Efficient,Environmentally Friendly and Economical.

The Glomar Wave will be able to provide the following services:

– Offshore Windfarm Accommodation Vessel (in combination with Ampelmann system)
– Dive Support Vessel (Optional Integrated Dive Platform)
– Safety Standby Vessel / Emergency Response & Rescue Vessel
– (Platform) Supply Vessel
– Survey Vessel

The vessel will be classed by Lloyd’s Register and flagged in Panama by Hubel Marine.

We are certain this this vessel will be soon the new dominant leader within the Windmill Offshore industry and is leaving the competitors far behind.

Panama Elections for President

Our managing director Mr. Erik A. de Koning was invited to attend the political arena in Panama City during the elections where the Panamanians have vote for their favorite candidate to become president.

As an tradition, the people have voted to dismiss their current ruling party. They gave the victory to Juan Carlos Varela. The previous opinion polls had predicted a tight race between the three most prominent candidates, none tipped Mr Jose Varela as a winner.

With 80% of the votes counted, Mr Varela won 39% of the vote, seven points ahead of José Domingo Arias, with 32%. Juan Carlos Navarro of the centre-left Democratic Revolution Party came third with 28%.

The current president, Mr Ricardo Martinelli, grudgingly accepted his loss.

The change of government will start on July 1^st .
