Also, SolstadFarstad said that Prysmian Powerlink Srl had declared its option to extend the present contract for the construction support vessel Normand Pacific . This will see the vessel firm period extended until October 31st, 2019.
According to Subsea World News , Prysmian has previously used the Normand Pacific for post lay survey works for the installed cable sections on the Western HVDC Link route in the UK.
