GC Rieber in New Charter Deal for Polar Queen

GC Rieber Shipping has entered into a time charter agreement with a European offshore client for the construction support vessel (CSV) Polar Queen.

The contract is for a period of about five months with options to extend by up to one month, the company informed.

The project is the same as Polar Queen was engaged on during the summer of 2018 and 2019.

The vessel will be used in British sector to perform accommodation services and walk-to-work duties, and the contract will start in April 2020.

“We are pleased with securing backlog in a continuous challenging market. Polar Queen has proven her success in the walk-to-work market, and we are proud to see that the vessel and her capabilities are recognized by our clients,” said Einar Ytredal, CEO of GC Rieber Shipping.
