Blessing Ceremony of the RV GEO RESOLUTION, the latest addition to the EGS fleet
The EGS management has gathered in Singapore to conduct the christening and blessing ceremony of the RV Geo Resolution, the latest addition to EGS’ fleet of deep water capable hydrographic and geophysical survey vessels. The ceremony has taken place at the Sembawang Shipyard, where the vessel was equipped and readied for her forthcoming survey duties. EGS purchased the 68m long RV Geo Resolution (formerly HMNZS Resolution) from the Royal New Zealand Navy (RNZN) in October 2014. During her service in New Zealand, the vessel was the RNZN’s principal hydrographic survey ship conducting surveying and charting on behalf of the New Zealand Navy. Originally designed and constructed in Mississippi for the US Navy and named the USNS Tenacious she was the 17th of a Class of 18 Stalwart-Class surveillance ships. The vessel was handed over to EGS on the 10th October 2014 and left Devonport Naval Base the same day for her voyage to Singapore.
