R/S JÁKUP SVERRI

Throughout our forty-plus years in the business, R/S JÁKUP SVERRI has been ETV's most comprehensive project to date. Our team has been involved from the design phase to the final delivery phase of the vessel.

​

R/S JÁKUP SVERRI is renowned as one of the quietest vessels in the world, as verified by in-depth underwater noise measurements. Constructed to meet the Silent-R standards of low underwater noise radiation, this ship has the latest technology to undertake various research projects. Its diesel-electric propulsion system was chosen for a better operational economy and to meet the noise requirements. This AC system utilizes direct running of the propeller from an electric propulsion motor with a capacity of 2400 kW. Additionally, two double elastic mounted Wärtsilä 8L20 diesel generators each provide an output of 1500 kW for the power supply.
