Cyprus-based offshore accommodation vessel operator Prosafe has sealed an extension from Equinor for Safe Boreas.

The vessel, being used at the Mariner project in the UK sector of the North Sea, has been extended by eight months through to June 2019. Equinor also has up to six months of options available.

Jesper Kragh Andresen, CEO of Prosafe, commented: “This contract extension demonstrates the good performance Prosafe and the Safe Boreas has achieved to support the Mariner hook up and commissioning project. The Safe Boreas with its large bed capacity and advanced station keeping will continue providing a high level of service throughout the remainder of the contract.”

The value of the extension is around $45m.
