With its large fender lists for safe docking and mooring, and an interior layout optimized for research workflows, the workboat provides an ideal environment for both students and researchers, says Tuco Marine.

The vessel was officially handed over to Skipper Morten Krogstad, with Tuco Marine Co-owner Jakob Frost handling the delivery.

This delivery forms part of a broader strategic investment by Nord University in marine infrastructure. Alongside the upcoming "Blått bygg" campus and the newly commissioned coastal research vessel, the ProZero 15m workboat will play a vital role in the university’s educational offerings.
