The Federal Ministry of Education and Research has commissioned the Fassmer and Meyer shipyards to build a new research vessel. According to a press release issued by the ministry on 21 January, the bidding consortium Meyer-Fassmer-Spezialschiffbau was awarded the contract to build the METEOR IV research vessel in mid-December 2021 as part of a Europe-wide tender. The consortium combines the expertise of two renowned German specialist shipyards.
