(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Fairstar Heavy Transport N.V. has been awarded a new transportation contract by
Hercules Offshore to transport the Hercules 185 jack-up rig from Port Gentil,
Gabon to either Pascagoula, Mississippi or Bahrain using the Fairstar semi-
submersible vessel FJELL. The contract revenue is just under USD 3 million. The
rig is expected to be loaded on board the FJELL on October 5. The final
destination will be nominated by Hercules once the rig has been loaded.
Philip Adkins, Fairstar's CEO stated "Fairstar is delighted to be working with
Hercules Offshore for the first time. Jim Stevens of High Seas Maritime Services
has represented Hercules for many years in the marine heavy transport business
and we know he sets high standards of performance for anyone that wants to work
with his client. FJELL has been en route to Alaska to begin work on the
Fertilizer Plant project. The FJELL will continue on to Alaska once the rig has
been discharged and will begin preparation to load the first stage of modules
scheduled for transport to Nigeria."
