Haugesund, 12 February 2024: Reach Subsea ASA offering high quality solutions
and technology to clients in need of ocean data and services, continues to
bolster its long-term capabilities to meet the increasing demand in the subsea
services market.
Reach has expanded its capacity by securing charters for both the Northern Maria
and Olympic Taurus.
For the Northern Maria, the charter arrangement includes 3 years firm period and
6+6 months options.
Northern Maria is a versatile survey vessel with a 20 tons crane and sufficient
accommodation and deck capacity, suitable to meet Reach Subsea's client's
requirements within both the renewable energy and oil and gas sectors. It is an
important step to take an increased market share in the early-stage survey
market for offshore wind projects, as well as being a capable vessel to perform
subsea inspections campaigns.
For the Olympic Taurus, a project charter commenced in January 2024 for a
duration of 100 days, with the potential for extension up to an additional 2+2
years.
The Olympic Taurus is a Multipurpose Offshore Vessel featuring diesel-electric
propulsion, notable for its low fuel consumption and exceptional flexibility.
Equipped with a helideck and an AHC crane, it offers versatility perfectly
suited for deployment in the IMR/LCV segments.
Both charters are subject to final approval from lenders.
"With a secured backlog for upcoming project periods and long-term charter
options in place, we are enhancing our capacity to capitalize on the rapidly
advancing global market. Reach Subsea is ideally situated with a comprehensive
service portfolio spanning ocean services and data provision, catering to both
the growing renewables sector and the established oil & gas market" said Jostein
Alendal, CEO of Reach Subsea.
