Solstad fixes CSV pair
Norway’s Solstad Offshore has secured more work for its subsea construction support vessels (CSVs).
The 2010-built Normand Baltic has been contracted to provide walk-to-work services on an unnamed offshore wind project in Asia. The contract starts in October this year and should last for about 180 days.
Meanwhile, the 2009-built CSV Normand Samson has been hired for a minimum of 260 days to support a field development project in South America, with commencement in the first quarter of 2024.
Commercial terms were not revealed, but Solstad said the deals “are in line with present market conditions for these types of vessels”, adding that it continues to see a high demand for CSVs from both renewables and oil and gas clients.
Last week, the Skudeneshavn-based firm secured a charter extension with Ocean Infinity for the CSV Normand Superior and for the Normand Navigator with Ocean Installer.
