(workboat) The Norwegian transport corporation Fjord1 has entered into a contract
with Fiskerstrand BLRT AS to plan and construct the world's largest
gas-powered ferry. The ferry will run on Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) and
will be delivered on 30 November 2011 for operation on Bokna Fjord
between Arsvågen and Mortavika in Rogaland County. It will also
function as a spare vessel for the Halhjem-Sandvikvåg route in
Hordaland County. The traffic on these ferry services has increased
dramatically since Fjord1 took over management of them in January 2007.
