DOF Subsea lands new deals in North Sea and Gulf of Mexico

DOF Subsea has been awarded several ROV and diving contracts for the vessel Skandi Achiever in the North Sea and the North America region. 

According to the company, these contracts will secure utilization of the vessel Skandi Achiever until the end of October 2016.

Following completion of ongoing commitments in the North Sea, DOF said that the 2007-built vessel will mobilize to Canada for ROV and light construction activities with a ‘major oil & gas operator’ before transiting to the Gulf of Mexico to support saturation and surface diving projects.

Furthermore, in Brazil, Petrobras has awarded a new contract for the 2010-built vessel Skandi Vitória securing utilization for the remainder of 2016.

The Skandi Vitória, owned through a joint venture together with Technip, is an ROV construction support vessel suited to perform subsea operations across a wide range of water depths.

Mons S. Aase, CEO, stated, “I am very pleased with the contract awards, and our global organization’s ability to secure utilization in a challenging market.”
