solstad secures extensions

Solstad Offshore secured two contract extensions for vessels Normand Pioneer and Normand Carioca. Normand Pioneer will continue to support subsea activities for PRIO, having been granted an extension of 18 months. While Normand Carioca, the only remaining PSV in Solstad’s fleet following the sale of its entire category to Tidewater, will be converted to a Well Stimulation Vessel (WSV) for Equinor, thus extending the current contract by four years firm. Normand Carioca has been working for Equinor ever since 2017 and this new agreement will see the vessel as a part of Equinor’s fleet for 10 years in a row, an impressive milestone. The shift in scopes of work is scheduled to take place during Q3 2023.
