Imtech Marine will be involved in the realisation of the Canadian government‘s[ds_preview] National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy (NSPS) programme as a technology partner of Seaspan Vancouver Shipyards. This programme involves the construction of a large number of navy, coast guard and research vessels. Imtech will be involved in the programme’s »non-combat« section and expects to work on a total of eight vessels. Investment in this part of the programme amounts to some 8 billion €. Imtech is Seaspan‘s intended partner for the supply of the ships‘ platform automation, electrical solutions, electric propulsion and air conditioning and climate control systems (HVAC). The formal granting of this partnership will considerably enlarge the company‘s marine order book in the longer term.
