The yacht REV OCEAN is a 183m (600ft) expedition and research yacht. It is currently under construction at VARD in Norway. The vessel will be delivered to her owner in 2024 (following the June 2021 announcement of a 3-year delay in delivery.).
The yacht is powered by 4 Wärtsilä 8L26 2.7 MW engines, powering 2 electric propulsion motors.
Her top speed will be 17 knots. Her range is 21,120 nautical miles at 11 knots cruising speed.
The motor yacht has enough capacity to treat and store wastewater from 90 persons for 21 days before discharging, allowing the vessel to discharge to shore facilities or to discharge well beyond legal requirements.
The luxury yacht can accommodate 28 guests and 26 scientists and has a crew of 36. The vessel has enough stores for 90 persons for 114 days. And for longer trips, extra stores can be provided in reefer containers on deck.
Her owner is Kjell Inge Rokke. Kjell Inge Røkke is a Norwegian businessman and billionaire. He is the founder and majority owner of the investment company Aker ASA, which has interests in various industries including shipping, offshore fishing, and oil and gas exploration. He is known for his philanthropy and has donated large sums of money to various causes, including education and environmental protection. He is also known for his adventurous spirit, and has been involved in various expeditions, including sailing around the world and climbing Mount Everest.
Her value is $500 million. Her annual running costs are around $50 million. The price of a yacht can vary greatly depending on a number of factors, including the size, age, and level of luxury of the yacht, as well as the materials and technology used in its construction.
In 2021 the REV Ocean Board and Management team reported a strong delay in the project.
” The REV Ocean vessel has been beset by delays caused by the yard. We have been hoping the situation would improve, but compounding issues are causing further setbacks. We have not received a timeline for when a compliant ship will be delivered. Our own best estimate suggests a three to five year delay for when the vessel can be placed in operation. This is related to technical and weight challenges, and the ship is as of today not in accordance with the specifications in the shipbuilding contract. Delivery can first take place when the ship is able to conduct the research and expedition missions which the ship is intended for.
