Capable of drilling up to 12,000 meters in deep water, the vessel will remain at the port for accreditation and certification procedures.
After completing port formalities, the 5th and 6th drilling ships—yet to be named—will be deployed for their operational missions, joining Fatih, Yavuz, Kanuni, and Abdülhamid Han in service.
Energy and Natural Resources Minister Alparslan Bayraktar stated that the 6th drilling ship has arrived in Türkiye and will begin operations next year, opening six new exploration wells across the Black Sea.
