Skipshistorie

B. nr. 247 - levert 1999. Rederi: Solstad Rederi AS. Bygd av Ulstein Verft AS.
Skipet er eit multifunksjonelt ankerhanderingsfartøy/slepefartøy/forsynings- og subseaservicefartøy av typen UT742 designa av Ulstein Ship Technology AS. Skipet skal støtte behova i offshoreindustrien etter kvart som oljeleiting og oljeproduksjonen vert forflytta til djupare farvatn. UT742 er designa og tilrettelagt for subseainstallasjonsarbeid og -tenester, og kan også bli tilpassa til enklare boring og liknande oppgåver. 'Normand Progress'er utstyrt og sertifisert som eit 'Class II'-skip, og er førebudd for ei seinare tilpassing til 'Class III'.

På prøveturen sette skipet verdsrekord i slepekraft då det i 10 minutt slepte 304 tonn vaier. Det lokale lensmannskontoret var til stades og kunne stadfeste rekorden, og verftet fekk oversend diplom frå Guinness Rekordbok.
