Cruise ship
Mardi Gras
Mardi Gras is an Excellence-class cruise ship operated by Carnival Cruise Line. It is the largest ship in the history of Carnival’s fleet, and it is the world’s first cruise ship to have an on-board rollercoaster. Mardi Gras measures 181,808 gross tons and has a maximum capacity of 6,500 passengers.
The project was carried out during a global pandemic, which caused extra challenges. In spite of this, Merima’s dedicated project team and supplier network succeeded in meeting the customer’s design and quality criteria. Close collaboration with the shipyard and the owner throughout the project lifespan was one of the key elements behind the project’s success.
