16/11/2017, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain.
Arrived from Rio de Janeiro, in tow of the large anchor handling and salvage tug 'ALP Defender'.


A large, circular, 500 pax flotel - or offshore accomodation rig - owned by Teekay, but has had a troubled life, so far.
Contracted for a three year stint in Brasil from 2015, but Petrobras cancelled the flotel's contract in May this year due to two (or more) serious operational incidents.
Legal wrangling continues.

Teekay had another two on order but have cancelled them.

This vessel was delivered in February 2015 by Cosco Nantong Shipyard, Nantong, China.
40,938 g.t. and about 50,000 dwt., as
'Arendal Spirit'.
