Norwegian offshore vessel owner DOF has raked in a batch of new vessel contracts and an IMR deal with Shell in Trinidad and Tobago. The contracts will be executed primarily using DOF’s regional fleet during the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026. In total, the awards represent more than 250 firm vessel days, excluding any additional options. The combined contract value exceeds $60m, excluding optional work. The 2006-built Skandi Hera andthe 2017-built Skandi Master will both be used for subsea work in West Africa under direct contracts with an undisclosed operator. Skandi Hera will perform trenching and burial services, while Skandi Master will be deployed for commissioning and start-up activities on a tie-back project. Both engagements are expected to have a duration of up to two months. The 2017-built Skandi Installer is scheduled for several subsea projects in the North Sea, covering both the Norwegian Continental Shelf and the UK Continental Shelf. The vessel will first execute a decommissioning project for a UK operator before mobilising to a Norwegian operator to install subsea production equipment and carry out various well-related activities. The 2009-built subsea construction vessel Havila Phoenix will be utilised on an IMR project on the Norwegian Continental Shelf and will also provide support on one of Skandi Installer’s projects. Skandi Installer’s commitments total more than 130 firm vessel days, while Havila Phoenix’s commitments account for more than 45 firm vessel days. All contracts include project management, logistics, engineering, and offshore execution scopes, which will be delivered by DOF’s teams in Norway and Scotland. DOF also won a multi-year contract in Trinidad and Tobago with Shell. The company defines the deal as significant, placing it in the $15m to $25m range, excluding any variation works. Under this contract, DOF will deliver an integrated solution for inspection, maintenance, and repair services. The deal also includes the charter of a yet unnamed vessel and ROVs. It covers work in 2025, 2026, and 2027, and will last for a total of 190 days across the three years. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1_95_0_1_2'); }); TagsNorway Trinidad and Tobago United Kingdom
