Description
The retrofit of Vasco da Gama (ex. Statendam) – Fincantieri Monfalcone BN 5881, 1992
Vessel Information
Built: 1992, Fincantieri Monfalcone
Owner: Mystic Invest
Type: Cruise vessel
Høglund was awarded the contract to refit the existing ABB MP200 / ABB XA control system onboard Vasco da Gama by V.Ships (management) and Mystic Invest (owner).
The vessel underwent a major four-week dry-dock operation in April 2025 at Lisnave Shipyard in Setúbal, Portugal. In addition to the IAS/PMS upgrade, the ABB propulsion Cyclo Converters were also refitted, in cooperation with General Electric.
The scope of Høglund’s refit included:
- Integrated Automation System (IAS)
- Power Management System (PMS)
- Sulzer Engine Safety System (EC40)
- Barton Tank Sounding System
- Navalimpianti Valve Control System
In addition to system integration and reconnection, Høglund carried out an extensive and time-consuming cleanup of all I/O cabinets to ensure the final delivery would result in a reliable, future-proof system that the crew can easily maintain.
It required significant effort to bring clarity to a very complex setup.
