About

A supplier is sought for the supply and delivery of two replacement 112.5 kVA generators for the MV Thorsvoe to replace existing Volvo TMD 71A units that are now obsolete with reduced spare-parts availability and rising costs. The new generators must be class approved and provide the same electrical output as the originals, and they must be supplied by 31 August 2027 to allow fitting during the vessel’s next scheduled drydock.
