Vow ASA: Contract of EUR 13.8 million awarded for equipment deliveries to four cruise newbuilds, additional six options to be called upon
Oslo, 26 November 2025: Vow ASA (ticker OSE: VOW) and its subsidiary Scanship have received a purchase order from a major European shipyard of EUR 13.8 million. Equipment deliveries will start in July 2026 for the first vessel and continue throughout 2028.
This order, which is a continuation of series of vessels with existing platforms and two vessel deliveries expected per year, will have its first vessel in operation at the end of 2028. Deliveries of equipment to four firm vessels are agreed. Under the agreement, the customer retains an option to order similar equipment for another six vessels at a later stage with equipment deliveries stretching to 2032. The six options have a total value of EUR 22 million.
“Through this contract, we continue our long-standing cooperation with the shipyard and the cruise line. The vessels will be fully equipped with Scanship systems, reinforcing our joint commitment to reliable and sustainable solutions,” says Gunnar Pedersen, CEO of Vow ASA.
With Scanship technology onboard, all wastewater on the ships will be purified according to the requirements in the Baltic Sea and Alaskan State waters, which are to date the highest standards at sea. All residue sludge from the wastewater, along with food waste and other biogenic waste from hotel operations, will undergo several processing steps such as dewatering, homogenization, drying, and incineration.
The waste management system further enhances the abord circular economy, recovering valuable commodities such as glass and aluminum for landing.
Scanship’s integrated clean ship solutions are designed to ensure compliance with all maritime environmental requirements, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, recovering important resources from waste, and preventing pollution.
