The inauguration ceremony will offer opportunities for photography, filming, interviews, and a tour of the customs vessel, providing a closer look at this state-of-the-art addition to the Oldenburg customs authority's fleet.
The 'Emden', with its advanced LNG propulsion, will enhance the Oldenburg customs authority's capabilities in maintaining maritime security and enforcing customs regulations. The inauguration ceremony will serve as a significant event, marking the vessel's entry into service and offering insights into its operations.
