MS Roald Amundsen is a purpose-built Norwegian expedition ship and the first cruise vessel in the HX fleet equipped with large battery packs for hybrid propulsion. Built by Kleven and introduced in 2019, it carries up to 530 guests with 151 crew and is designed for polar exploration with PC-6 ice-class capability, expedition boats, a Science Center, observation areas, and a Scandinavian-style interior.
The ship combines hybrid battery-assisted propulsion with expedition facilities including a Science Center, Explorer Lounge, observation decks, and Zodiac operations. Its PC-6 designation supports polar operations, although it is not an icebreaker.
Wellness facilities include an infinity pool, panoramic sauna, fitness or wellness center, and spa-related services.
HX materials identify adapted cabins for guests with disabilities or reduced mobility. Accessibility arrangements can vary by cabin and expedition activity.
MS Roald Amundsen uses battery-hybrid propulsion intended to reduce fuel consumption and emissions; the operator reported emissions reductions of more than 20% compared with conventional cruise ships of similar size.
