Among the most innovative PSVs in the world, Edda Fram (2007), Edda Frende (2009) and Edda Ferd (2013)
were the first PSVs built with Voith-Schneider propellers that could serve both as the main propulsion and
anti-rolling system. In addition, they were the first ones to be equipped with a Rim-Driven technology tunnel
thruster with super-silent capabilities.
Improving the efficiency of its sister vessels and becoming the most environmentally friendly PSV in the world
in 2013 according to OSJ, Edda Ferd is also the first vessel to be equipped with the Siemens Bluedrive PlusC
disesel-electric propulsion system. This cutting edge technology provides independent speed control of each
engine, reducing fuel consumption and minimizing greenhouse gas emissions.
