(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
September 29, 2014 - AKOFS Offshore, a part of Akastor ASA, has been notified of
a five-year contract extension from Petrobras to use the Skandi Santos, a Subsea
Equipment Support Vessel in Brazil.
The extension, worth about NOK 2.5 billion, will start March 1, 2015 in direct
continuation of current contract. The vessel is currently operating under a
five-year contract with Petrobras that began March 1, 2010.
The Skandi Santos is designed to install and retrieve subsea trees and modules,
including subsea structures and manifolds at water depths of up to 2,300 meters.
The vessel will during the contract extension period continue with its current
scope of work and also start installing Petrobras' new generation of subsea
trees offshore Brazil.
The Skandi Santos and the installed remotely operated vehicles are owned by DOF
Subsea and leased to AKOFS Offshore, who owns and operates the vessel's topside
and subsea equipment.
