DDW Offshore scores more work for AHTS pair

Norway’s DDW Offshore, a subsidiary of Akastor, has secured more work for its anchor handling tug supply (AHTS) fleet.

The 2012-built Skandi Atlantic has been fixed to Petrofac for an additional four months in direct continuation of the existing contract announced in September last year.

The new deal will keep the vessel supporting the disconnection of the FPSO Northern Endeavour together with towing and well isolation work in the Laminaria Corallina oil fields in the West Timor Sea until the end of January 2024.

In addition, the company has been awarded a contract for the 2011-built Skandi Emerald by Beach Energy Resources in New Zealand. 

The contract will last for about 90 days, starting in mid-August, and in direct continuation of the existing employment.

The Oslo-based DDW Offshore, formerly known as DOF Deepwater, owns three AHTS vessels following the sale of Skandi Saigon and Skandi Pacific to Brazil’s OceanPact. Akastor took over the company in October 2020 after a financial restructuring.
