NEW ORDER CONFIRMED TO PIRIOU: 67M FREEZER TUNA SEINER

10/01/2019

SAUPIQUET has just confirmed to PIRIOU the order of a 67m freezer tuna seiner dedicated to oceanic tuna fishing. This new unit to be delivered by the end of 2020 will be built by PIRIOU Vietnamese shipyard, which has already built and delivered eight tuna seiners from 80 to 90m since 2010 as an addition to the historical site of Concarneau-France.

The ‘sea proven’ design of PIRIOU INGENIERIE naturally takes into account several regulatory changes and contributes to improve working conditions, rest periods and security for crew on board in accordance with the MLC 2006 rule (Maritime Labour convention).

The vessel will be equipped with optimized propulsion featuring variable pitch propeller and shaft alternator allowing better use of energy.
