Ramform Titan is a marine seismic acquisition vessel built in 2013 by the MHI shipyard in Nagasaki, Japan. Its width at the stern is 70 m (230 ft),[1] making it the widest class of single-hulled ships in the world[3] (NN Nanny[4] previously exceeded this with a beam of 79 m before being broken up in 2003).
The Ramform class of ships was developed by PGS, before the company merged with TGS in 2024.[5] PGS built three other Titan-class vessels after Ramform Titan:[6] Ramform Atlas,[7] Ramform Hyperion,[8] and Ramform Tethys.[9]
