I was invited on board the KL SANDEFJORD on Wednesday, 2nd February. I was very much appreciated, and would like to send a big thank you to all on board. KL SANDEFJORD, is the world's most powerful anchor handling vessel.

Anchor Handling Tug Supply Vessel KL SANDEFJORD was recently successfully delivered to K Line Offshore AS from the building yard STX OSV, Langsten.
With it's 34.000 BHP and a bollard pull of 390 tons she is the strongest AHTS in the world. After installation and testing of A-frame in Kristiansand, she is available for operation from 17th January 2011.

AHTS ? Judging from the fitments and quality, the H stands for Hotel.
