The seismic research ship “Barbaros Hayrettin Pasha”, which was purchased by the Turkish Petroleum Joint Stock Company (TPAO) for use in offshore oil and natural gas exploration and started its activities in 2013, arrived at Trabzon Port.
The ship, which is 84.2 meters long, 21.6 meters wide and weighs 4 thousand 711 gross tons, will meet the maintenance, repair and logistics needs here.
Trabzon Port Management Inc. General Manager Muzaffer Ermiş expressed to the AA reporter their satisfaction in hosting the ship in Trabzon.
Stating that they hosted the ship in their port a year ago, Ermiş said, “After general research, it will be a guest in our port for a while for maintenance, providing the necessary stocks and meeting similar needs. Currently, there is also a support ship. The support ship will increase to two. It will be in our port for about 45 days. “It will see its needs and continue oil exploration in the Eastern Black Sea.” said.
Ermiş explained that the work done on the seabed on the ship “Barbaros Hayrettin Pasha” was analyzed and said:
“Within the framework of this analysis, our drilling ships are doing this drilling in places where oil signs are strong. The name of the last drilling ship purchased is Abdülhamid Han. In the latest version, there is the possibility of drilling in deeper seas. In this respect, we would like to say ‘Welcome’ to TPAO. “We say. As Trabzon Port, we will provide all kinds of support and logistics without any obstacles, and we will continue to do so.”
