The French defense procurement agency (DGA) has just confirmed the order for two additional Offshore Support and Assistance Ships (BSAH) from the CHANTIERS PIRIOU-KERSHIP-DCNS consortium, under a contract signed in August 2015.
This order will bring the number of BSAHs to be supplied to four.
Scheduled for delivery in 2018, the first two ships are currently being built in Concarneau.
The two new units ordered are scheduled for delivery in 2019.
