The rig provider explains that the duration of the contract starting Q2/Q3 2023 is approximately one year. The contract has an approximate value of $33 million.

The 2005-built Safe Concordia, which was constructed at Keppel FELS shipyard in Singapore, is a DP2 semi-submersible ASV with 389 (461 with ALQ) beds for worldwide operations excluding Norway. The vessel received an upgrade in July 2015.

Currently, this vessel is providing gangway-connected operations for BP Trinidad and Tobago at Cassia Compression (Cassia C) project offshore Trinidad, following a contract extension.
