RSS Sir David Attenborough Delivered to LR Class (Photo: Lloyd s Register) Britain’s new polar research ship, the RSS Sir David Attenborough, has been formally presented with Lloyd s Register (LR) certification after a four-year-long construction period, the classification society said. The high-profile vessel, the U.K.’s largest commercial newbuild for over 30 years, was delivered to Natural Environment Research Council and British Antarctic Survey (BAS) by Cammell Laird Shipbuilders. BAS undertake vital research in the polar regions, leading in polar science and polar operations, addressing issues of global importance and helping society adapt to a changing world. The highly complex vessel is designed to support science in extreme environments. A wide range of specialist scientific facilities, instruments and laboratories enable scientists to conduct multidisciplinary sciences to study the ocean, seafloor, ice and atmosphere.
