Eidesvik Offshore said on Wednesday that the new contracts would begin in direct continuation of the existing contracts.

The duration is approximately four months for each vessel with further options for extension. Both vessels are then booked until the end of July 2020.

Jan Fredrik Meling, CEO and president of Eidesvik, stated: “We are very pleased with these contract awards, and we look forward to continuing our long-term relationship with Seabed Geosolutions.”

It is worth reminding that the two vessels have been working for Seabed Geosolutions since early 2018.

Eidesvik was awarded new contracts by Seabed Geosolutions for the Vantage – Subsea Viking tandem in May 2019. The new deals were in direct continuation of the existing contracts, with a duration of around three months with further options.
