The Brazilian Navy Signed a Contract for the Acquisition of the Former Commercial Diving Support Vessel Adams Challenge, Which Will Serve as Its New Submarine Rescue Ship (SRS).

In its new role, the Adams Challenge, purchased by the Brazilian Navy, will replace the current Navy SRS Felinto Perry, which was commissioned in 1988. The new ship is currently in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, and will be transferred to Brazil by Adams Offshore, the ship’s owner.

The Navy is also sending a crew that will familiarize themselves with the operation of the vessel. The ship is expected to arrive in Rio de Janeiro in December this year. Measuring 85 meters in length, the dynamically positioned vessel features a MoonPool and a helipad.
