Semco Maritime reported on Friday, 27 January 2023, the award of a new framework agreement for the provision of temporary staffing services for offshore nurses on the Norwegian Continental Shelf, which was handed out by Equinor.

Nikolaj Vejlgaard, Senior Vice President, Rig & Offshore Marine, Semco Maritime, remarked: “This is an important contract for Semco Maritime, and we are proud and humbled by the trust displayed by Equinor now awarding us with a new frame agreement. We would like to thank our onshore and offshore personnel for the efforts made in the previous contract period.

“We are also thankful to our onshore staff cooperating with our customers and maintaining a close dialogue with our employees to ensure quality deliveries on our contracts. We are looking forward to further developing the professional relationship with Equinor in the years ahead.”

The company explains that it has been providing highly qualified nurses to Equinor since 2014 and this new framework agreement entails a continuation of the cooperation until 31 January 2027 with the option of extending by 2 + 2 years.
