GEOS said the new contract has been entered into on today’s market terms and, combined with other contracts for three PSVs secured earlier, it had well more than 90% utilisation until the fourth quarter of 2022.
Earlier this month, GEOS initiated a private placement of new ordinary shares, looking to sell up to 5.5m shares in the market. The net proceeds from the private placement will be used to accelerate the decarbonisation process of the company, to ensure financial capacity and flexibility to pursue growth opportunities, as well as for general corporate purposes.
