STX Europe has entered into new contracts with Island Offshore for the building of two Platform Supply Vessels. The vessels will be built at STX Europe in Brevik, Norway, for delivery in 2011and 2012.
The two ships are based on the same design as Island Commander and Island Chieftain delivered from STX Europe earlier this year. The total value of the contracts amounts to approximately NOK 800 million. Roy Reite, President of STX Europe's Offshore & Specialized Vessels business area, says: "We have been awarded a total of 29 new building contracts with Island Offshore. We appreciate the close cooperation with Island Offshore, which is an innovative customer both in upturns and downturns in the offshore market. We look forward to continuing the good cooperation with the Island Offshore's team." (NRK/Press release) Rolleiv Solholm |
