Maersk Supply Service will be incorporated into a new subsidiary, DOF Offshore Holding Denmark, which will be one of the largest oil services companies listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange.
The transaction will provide DOF with a modern fleet of 22 vessels, comprising eight construction support vessels, 13 anchorhandler tug supply vessels and one cable layer.
DOF Group will then have a fleet of 79 offshore subsea vessels, of which 65 are fully owned, with growth potential from renewal of legacy contracts and additional subsea services. It will also have a workforce of more than 5,400 employees.
