Skandi Carla and Geoholm have been contracted on four-year charters with Petrobras as remotely operated vehicle (ROV) support vessels, both expected to begin their contracts in December.

The awards follow the same competitive tender process that resulted in the previously announced contract award of Skandi Achiever on a four-year charter as RSV.

The 2001-built, 84-meter-long Skandi Carla will operate with one work-class ROV and subsea crane, while the 2006-built, 85.7-meter-long Geoholm will use its subsea crane and two work-class ROVs on board.

These deals come after a competitive anchor handling tug supply (AHTS) vessel tender process, which enabled the Brazilian giant to hire the Skandi Logger, Skandi Iguaçu, Skandi Angra, Skandi Paraty, Skandi Urca vessels, as well as Skandi Fluminense and Skandi Lifter, announced earlier this month.
