We order two new roros

We are excited to announce that on 11th February 2026 we ordered two Stream Roro 1700 vessels with options for two more at CIMC Raffles in China. The project is important for us to continue to provide our customers with high quality tailor-made transport solutions, renew our fleet and meet both present and future environmental demands. 

The vessels will have a length of 125 m, a beam of 24 m and a trailer capacity of 1.700 lm. The cargo capacity in metric tons is abt 6.200. The Stream Roro vessels are equipped with one stern ramp and fixed ramps connecting the three cargo decks. Typical cargo will be trailers, cassettes, cars, other roro car-goes and forest products. The vessels can also load containers, reefer units and various kinds of dangerous goods.

The Stream Roro concept has been developed together with Technolog Services in Hamburg, Germany. It builds upon many years of experience from our past and present vessels. We will put extra focus on minimizing the fuel consumption with extensive CFD modelling in addition to tank testing. The cargo capacity will be 70-100% bigger than in our present vessels Mimer and Midas with the same fuel consumption. The Stream Roros will be equipped with shore power connection and batteries for emission free stay in port and short distances at sea. The battery capacity can later be increased and complemented by new emission free power generation. The new vessels are also prepared for a waste heat recovery system and alternative new fuels such as methanol.

The construction will start in June and November 2027, launching will take place in May and October 2028 and delivery is scheduled for September 2028 and January 2029.

The new vessels will give work to about 50 persons onboard. We hope to be able to put the vessels under Finnish flag. As our other roros the new vessels will have high Finnish/Swedish ice-class 1A.
