ULSTEINVIK, Norway – Island Offshore has secured long-term assignments for four of its platform supply vessels offshore northwest Europe.
Lundin Norway awarded contracts for the LNG-fuelled Island Crusader and Island Contender for respective durations of 600 and 400 days, with the programs due to start between April and August.
The Island Crusader will support the semisubmersible West Bollsta for a 10-well campaign, while the Island Contender will assist the jackup Rowan Viking (VALARIS JU-290) with seven wells.
A third vessel, Island Commander, will continue providing back-up for drilling at the Edvard Grieg complex in the Utsira High region of the North Sea.
“We have not seen contracts of equivalent duration for quite some time now,” said Tommy Walunet, Island Offshore’s managing director.
In addition, the company has secured a one-year extension of an existing contract for the PSV Island Champion working out of Aberdeen, and long-term contracts for two further PSVs from an unnamed customer.
