DOF Wins Contract for Skandi Sotra

Norwegian offshore vessel owner DOF announced that it has signed a 21 months contract for the platform supply vessel (PSV) Skandi Sotra (built 2003).

The contract will commence today (Friday) in direct continuation from its present contract in Australia, the operator of offshore support vessels said in a statement.
 
DOF's CEO, Mons S. Aase, said: "We are pleased to announce yet another long-term contract. So far in 2019 we have signed long-term contracts for work in Guyana, Saudi Arabia, Netherland, Malaysia, UK, Norway, New Zealand and now Australia. Our global reach and unique track record is key to delivering an industry leading fleet utilisation."

In November 2017, Skandi Sotra won a 75-day contract in Australia with Chevron. The contract also included extension options and started in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Skandi Sotra was delivered from Myklebust Verft as a Multipurpose Field Vessel, ROV-Ship & Pipe Carrier, of the MT 6000 type. This was the seventh ship of MT 6000 design in the DOF fleet. The design is from Maritim Teknikk, and the hull came from Romania.
