Vow ASA: New cruise newbuild order confirmed, additional option remains
Oslo, 26 September 2025: Vow ASA (ticker OSE: VOW) and its subsidiary Scanship has received a purchase order from a major European shipyard worth EUR 11.3 million. Deliveries starting mid-June 2026 and throughout 2027.
This order was first mentioned as an option in a stock market announcement on 8 February 2024. Under the agreement, the customer retains an option to order similar equipment for one additional vessel at a later stage.
“Through this contract, we continue our cooperation with shipyards and owners, delivering the fifth vessel in a series of newbuilds, to be fully equipped with our advanced systems, and reinforcing our commitment to reliable and sustainable solutions,” says Gunnar Pedersen, CEO of Vow ASA.
With Scanship technology onboard, all wastewater on the ships will be purified according to the requirements in the Baltic Sea and Alaskan State waters, which are to date the highest standards at sea. All residue sludge from the wastewater, along with food waste and other biogenic waste from hotel operations, will undergo several processing steps such as dewatering, homogenization, thermal hydrolysis, drying, and pyrolysis.
The end products are climate neutral energy and carbon for capture and storage (CCS). The waste management system further enhances the abord circular economy, recovering valuable commodities such as glass and aluminum for landing.
The state-of-the-art system is a fully integrated clean ship solution for more than 10,000 people at sea, ensuring compliance with all maritime environmental requirements, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, recovering important resources from waste, and preventing pollution.
