Sapura's fleet of PLSV's will now be taken care of by Wartsila. The companies signed a contract and from now on, the six support and launching vessels for flexible pipes at Sapura will have their maintenance program managed by Wartsila.

The maintenance contract involves a total of 34 engines and 42 propellers from the Finnish manufacturer that are installed in this fleet.
