HMI produced, supplied and installed the complete interior for RS 178 Gjert Wilhelmsen II, built by GOT Marine in Mandal for Redningsselskapet.

The 32-metre hybrid SAR vessel is the largest and most advanced rescue vessel in Redningsselskapet’s history. HMI’s scope covered the complete interior delivery from production through onboard installation and final completion.

During the 2026 dry dock of Color Hybrid, HMI completed a broad interior refurbishment covering both technical/service areas and selected public spaces.

The flooring scope included the complete removal and replacement of existing resin flooring in galleys, sculleries and storage rooms using SikaFloor Marine systems. HMI also installed new vinyl flooring in selected gangways and corridors, together with new floor and wall tiles in three public toilets.

In addition, HMI delivered a new seating area on Deck 6 with new seating and artificial stone tables, as well as a number of smaller upgrades and modifications in the onboard shops.

The project was carried out as part of the vessel’s planned dry dock, with HMI coordinating multiple interior disciplines within a tight execution window.

While HMI had a team of 12–15 technicians working onboard Color Hybrid, Superspeed 1 was docked alongside, allowing us to carry out several additional interior upgrades in parallel.

The scope included new flooring in all elevators, new deck covering and tiles in selected public bathrooms, new vinyl flooring in one of the clothing shops, and the installation of new B15 doors in the accommodation areas.

HMI also completed a number of smaller repairs and upgrades throughout the vessel, helping maintain the interior standard and condition of the ship during the planned docking period.

Multiple interior upgrades were completed within the available docking window, allowing Superspeed 1 to return to service with renewed public, retail and accommodation areas without extending the planned yard stay.

After several years of operation in Brazil, Normand Navigator returned to Norway ahead of a new subsea contract. HMI was contracted to renovate and upgrade the vessel’s ROV control room as part of the preparation work.

HMI also carried out a complete reconfiguration of two cabins. Two existing prefabricated wet units were removed, and the available space was redesigned and rebuilt into a modern client office area. The project combined refurbishment and structural interior reconfiguration, adapting existing accommodation spaces to meet new operational requirements before the vessel returned to service.

HMI carried out the refit and conversion of two luxury passenger catamarans back to full-capacity operation, with capacities of 204 and 326 passengers.

The project was executed within an ambitious timeline at a shipyard in Suez, Egypt. HMI managed the complete scope from engineering and manufacturing to subcontractor coordination, production of passenger seating, logistics and final installation onboard.

Both vessels were completed in just 12 working days through close coordination between HMI, the client and the local shipyard.

During the 2026 dry dock of MV Edda Fides in Gibraltar, HMI carried out a substantial interior refurbishment across accommodation, public and service areas.

The scope included complete renewal of the flooring in more than 40 client-cabin bathrooms from the steel deck up, using Dexcoat Energy, together with several hundred square metres of new vinyl flooring in corridors.

HMI also completed a full renovation of the smoking room, including new bulkheads, ceiling, furniture and flooring.

In the galley, preparation areas, scullery, coolers and freezers, HMI applied a new marine-approved epoxy topcoat, upgrading heavily used service areas as part of the vessel’s planned dry-dock programme.

HMI was awarded a significant contract by Macro Offshore Management for a major modification of the accommodation onboard Crossway Eagle, converting 156 single-occupancy cabins into double cabins during the rig’s planned yard stay in Mandal.

HMI took responsibility from the preliminary design and engineering stage through production and final onboard installation.

The scope included the production and installation of 156 upper bunk beds, 156 additional wardrobes, privacy curtains and reading lights, together with the necessary modifications and adjustments required to prepare each cabin for double occupancy.

With a substantial scope and a tight execution window, the project required detailed planning, efficient production and close coordination between HMI, Macro Offshore Management and the yard. The complete project was delivered on time and within the agreed budget, demonstrating HMI’s ability to execute large-scale accommodation modifications within demanding offshore schedules.
