New DP2 Geotechnical Drillship Delivered to Horizon

Horizon Survey and Geotechnical Companies (Horizon) has taken delivery of a new build DP2 Geotechnical Drillship, ‘Quest Horizon’.

The 65m vessel was commissioned and designed specifically to support Horizon’s geotechnical drilling projects. The ‘Quest Horizon’ can also be utilised for survey, ROV and light construction activities. The vessel is currently located in the United Arab Emirates.

This acquisition follows last year’s purchase of the 87m DP2 vessel ‘Horizon Geobay’ and the opening of Horizon’s office in Bristol, UK.
