The Norwegian ferry operator Fjord1 took delivery of the hybrid ferry SKAGASTØL on Thursday, 12 November. She is the first in a series of four sister ferries ordered by the company from the Turkish shipyard Tersan Shipyard.

The four ferries will be deployed on the Lavik–Oppedal route, for which Fjord1 took over the contract on 1 September 2026. The route is currently served by reserve ferries operated by Fjord1, as well as chartered ferries from Norled, which held the previous contract for the route.

SKAGASTØL is expected to enter service on the route in early 2027.
