Statoil Awards MMT with Offshore Survey Contract

MMT, a Swedish marine survey company offering turnkey services, has been awarded a Frame Agreement for Offshore Survey Services with Statoil.

The Frame Agreement consists of survey services such as pipeline surveys, seabed mapping surveys, inspections, geotechnical survey support, and environmental survey support that will be conducted worldwide. This is a 4 year long contract with an option of an additional 2 years.

MMT will operate an ROV, ROTV, Tow fish and vessel based survey sensors under this frame agreement. The work will mainly be performed in the North Sea. MMT has qualified six vessels in the agreement; these vessels include those owned and operated by MMT as well as vessels that MMT will charter from close associates.

The company has recently completed subsea surveys for Statoil in the Nearshore Frame agreement awarded during the summer of 2011.

“Working for Statoil gives us recognition of being one of the top marine surveying companies in the world. We believe that the awards of these two Frame Agreements are partly a result of our hard work to improve and develop the Health, Safety, Environment and Quality work. We will continue to improve our workflows and we will have the same high requirements on our sub-contractors.” said MMT in a statement.
