Hi sharpnessship, am sure that you`re correct, she was converted to stone-carrier in 1978, your photo on shipspotting.com is showing her still with a mast midships instead of an excavator.....
Seems that she got no sister as she was the only one of her size built by the Ulstein shipyard Her details and history according to Mirmar: IMO: 7221603 Year: 1972 Name: GRETE NIELSEN Flag: DNK Type: Cargo ship Launch Date: 1.6.72 Date of completion: Tons: 1599 DWT: 3100 Length overall: 91.4 LPP: 82.0 Beam: 15.0 Country of build: NOR Builder: Ulstein Location of yard: Ulsteinvik Yard No: 70 Speed(kn): 13.5 Subsequent History: [1978 cv to stone carrier, 21.0m beam, 2949gt/3300dw][1991 Lg 99.5/90.7m, 3713/3150dw][2002 cv to pipe-burying vessel] - 78 ROCKY GIANT End: 2006 Disposal Data: BU Aliaga 15.3.06

Grete nielsen
Dear Both,
Many thanks for your information and helpfulness. Your identification matches everything I can find and what I can decipher of the name. Thus I appreciate your letting me remove this photograph from my unidentified box. Best wishes, MauriceJ. |
