André Goedée, Chief Executive Officer Dockwise, commented:
Under continued difficult market conditions, we have delivered a sound financial
performance in the third quarter. It is important to stress that, while
variation orders have benefited Dockwise, these are only achievable through
successfully accommodating our client's changing needs. Our ability to do this
reflects our leadership in increasingly complex projects.
We are delighted to again report a record total backlog, - thanks to our win of
the BP Claire Ridge project now stretching out into 2015. Quarterly orderbook
growth was again firmly ahead of quarterly revenues; a basis for sustained long
term growth. Tendering activity continues to be strong, and in a period which
has seen several successes; securing the transport of the FPSO Goliat on the
Vanguard is an outstanding achievement. Dockwise will be proud to break its own
record for the world's heaviest single cargo, and the award is the best
endorsement of our decision, taken at a challenging time, to proceed with our
new vessel.
